Safety guidelines 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

Please  read  this  complete  set  of  instructions  before  operating  the  charger.  It 
contains  important  information  on  the  correct  use.  For  damage  which  results 
from  the  non-compliance  of  these  operating  instructions,  the  warranty  is 
rendered invalid. 

 

Warning:

  Explosive  gases  are  emitted  when  batteries  charge.  Avoid  flames  or 

sparking.  Disconnect  the  charger  from  the  mains  before  you  connect  the 
battery.  Battery  acid  is  extremely  caustic.  Avoid  any  contact  with  skin  or 
clothing.  Immediately  wash  with  soap  and  water  in  the  case  of  unintentional 
contact. 

Warning:

  Never  charge  Li-ion  or  other  battery  technologies  with  this  charger. 

This  can  cause  serious  damage  to  the  device  or  start  a  fire.  Only  use  for 
rechargeable  lead  batteries  in  wet,  AGM,  or  gel  technology.  Never  place  the 
charger on the battery during the charging process. 

 

Never place the charger under water, make sure that no liquids penetrate it. 

Caution:

 With wet batteries, before connecting the charger, the acid level must 

be  checked.  If  needed,  top  up  lead  acid  batteries  with  distilled  water: 
Maintenance-free batteries (gel or AGM) should not be topped off with distilled 
water.  This  is  not  permitted.  Avoid  short  circuits  to  the  battery  poles.  Do  not 
place tools or metallic objects on the battery – this can lead to short circuits and 
fires. The device may only be repaired by technicians who are familiar with the 
relevant  safety  regulations  and  instructions.  Do  not  load  the  electrical  and 
charging cables through unnecessary pulling or jamming/clamping. The  device 
may  not  be  operated  with  a  damaged  connection  cable.  Do  not  operate  the 
device  in  the  proximity  of  easily  flammable  materials.  The  device  heats  up 
during operation. Do not place the charger on flammable or sensitive surfaces. 
There  is  a  risk  of  fire  or  a  risk  of  damaging  surfaces,  e.g.  of  seats  or  painted 
surfaces. 

Caution:

  The  charger  cable  for  connection  to  the  motorcycle  may  not  be 

lengthened. Only use the charging adapter provided on the battery poles. 

Caution:

 Do not expose the charger to excessive heat; avoid mechanical impact 

caused  by  dropping or  falling.  Avoid  damage  or  use  of  force  on  the  operating 
keys, e.g. with tools or objects.
