Check against the Absorption and Float Voltage with the battery type and specifications given in section
N.
Make sure the charger is power OFF.
Use a small slot type screw driver to select the battery through Battery Selection Switch (4).
AGM/GEL
: Sealed type (VRLA), AGM-GEL, Maintenance Free, Automotive or Deep Cycle lead acid batteries
WET
: Flooded Type lead acid batteries (to which water can be added) Automotive or Deep Cycle
Calcium-Calcium* : Sealed type (VRLA) Lead Acid batteries with Calcium content Automotive or Deep Cycle
LiFePO4
: Sealed type Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries (2 different settings available)
Lead Crystal
: Sealed Lead Crystal batteries for cycling use (RV’s etc).
The selected battery type can be viewed at the optional remote panel.
4. *Warning; ONLY Calcium-Calcium type batteries are to be charged in this mode and only when a boost charge is required
(15.1Volts). NO loads are to be connected to the battery during this charge mode.
Charge through one cycle only then set the battery selector back to the WET setting.
