Charge stages description:
1. Battery recovery function.
This step is valid only for 12V batteries. When low voltage (7.5-10.5V) is detected on the
connected battery the charger automatically switches to recovery mode. High frequency
pulses are used to recondition the battery. When the voltage reaches 10.5V, charger will
continue to charge according to preselected programme.
2. Charging the battery.
In this step the charger uses preselected programme with default current to charge the
battery. Battery voltage is continuously monitored.
3. Topping up the battery.
To prevent gas emission and/or heating up of the battery, charge current is limited to 3.0A and
further to 0.8A towards the end of process.
4. End of charge, maintenance charge.
The charge process is terminated when the battery voltage reaches cut-off value of
14.4V/14.7V for 12V battery or 7.3V for 6V battery. The charge state of the battery is
continuously monitored. When the self-discharge occurs, charge is reapplied automatically to
maintain full charge state.
Notice:
1. In case of a bad battery connection or other fatal error the charger stops operating. The
failure, red „+-” indicator will light up.
2. In case of abnormal operation the charger stops operating and switches to standby mode.
3. In case of a quick temperature increase, charger will reduce output power for maximum
safety. It protects the appliance from damages.
4. Regular supervision of charging process is advised.
Safety instructions:
1. Read the instructions before using this charger.
2. This charger is intended for use only with 6V/12V batteries - VRLA, AGM, VLA, SLA, WET,
GEL, LEAD ACID. Always check battery's manual for technical specification, charger
recommendation and safety precautions. Attempting to charge other types of batteries may
cause personal injury, damage to the charger or lead to a fire and/or explosion.
3. The charger is intended for indoor use only. Exposure to any liquids or moisture can cause
damage to the charger and battery. Do not allow foreign objects to enter the charger. This
could result in electrical shock or fire.
4. Disconnect the charger from the power socket when not in use.
5. Never use an extension cord or any attachment not recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Do not operate the charger if it has been subjected to shock or damage. Take it to a qualified
serviceman for repair.
7. Do not attempt to disassemble the charger as it may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
8. Unplug the charger from the power supply before attempting any cleaning. Use only a soft
damp cloth. Do not use water, detergents or alcohol.
9. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
