6.6 Recover 12 volt
Warning – Only for 12-volt lead-acid batteries
•
Use the Recover mode solely for 12-volt lead-acid batteries
(liquid electrolyte, gel, maintenance-free (MF), AGM) that
are already aged and no longer fully functional!
•
New and fully functional 12-volt batteries can be damaged
through the Recover mode.
•
In Recover mode, there may be increased escape of
explosive gases from the battery. Avoid sparks, heat and
fire in close proximity, and run the Recover mode only in
well-ventilated spaces.
•
Never use the Recover mode for 6-volt batteries! As a
faultless 6-volt battery can also be detected as a deeply
discharged 12-volt battery, the 12-V Recover mode can be
inadvertently set. These batteries are overcharged with the
high charging voltage and damaged.
•
Never use the Recover mode for 12.8-volt 4-cell LiFePO
4
batteries! These batteries are overcharged with the high
charging voltage and damaged.
Depending on the degree of ageing and chemical degradation,
this charging programme CAN regenerate a deeply discharged
lead-acid battery to a certain extent.
•
Press and hold the MODE selection button (1) as described
in Point 6.5, to select the Recover 12 V charging programme.
•
If the battery is too damaged and cannot be recovered (no
increase in voltage to 12 V within 3 hours), the fault symbol (F)
flashes and the charger ends the Recover programme (Standby).
•
Promptly obtain a replacement battery from a specialist retailer.
