EN 8 Starting the charging process
5. S TARTING THE CHARGING PROCESS
Set the correct charge mode by pressing the mode button.You can find
out how to select the correct charge mode to be used for charging
your battery in the section on “SETTING”.
Once you have established that the battery cable has been correctly
connected you can start the charging process. To do so, insert the
charger plug into the AC socket.
Now either the charge indicator or The maintenance charge
indicator lights up. When the maintenance charge indicator lights
up, the battery is fully charged. If the battery voltage drops, the charger
sends a pulse to the battery. The length of the pulse depends on how
much charge the battery has lost. The FDAN 12001 may be connected
for months at a time. However it is recommended to monitor batteries
on charge.
If nothing happens: If the indicator for the set voltage is still illuminated,
but no other indicator is illuminated, the connection to the battery or
the chassis could be faulty, or the battery could be defective. If the
charging process has not started, this could be due to the fact that the
power socket is not supplying a current.
The charging process can be interrupted at any time. In addition pull
the plug of the charger out of the power socket or put the charger on
Stand-by/Power On . Always remove the plug of the charger from the
power socket before disconnecting the battery cable.If you interrupt
the charging process of a battery fitted in a vehicle, the battery cable
must always be first disconnected from the chassis and then from the
other battery cable.
If the indicator for charge and maintenance charge are flashing
alternately,this may have the following causes:
1. Interruption of the charging process because a cable has become
loose or because the battery is not conducting.
2. The battery is sulphated.If the indicator flashes for more than 30
minutes the battery may be defective and should be replaced.
3. If the flashing signal is flashing at intervals of more than 10
seconds,then there is a high self discharge of the battery,indicating a
bad battery.
