4. Connection and Start-Up
Ensuring correct polarity, first connect the power
cable to a 12 V car battery or a 12 V DC power
supply unit (red = + terminal, black = - terminal).
The charger is now ready for operation.
Although the charger is polarity reversal-pro-
tected, avoid reversing polarity as this will cause
the fuse to blow.
If polarity has been reversed, the fuse must be
replaced by an identical type (5A) (available from
car accessory outlets or service stations).
The battery is connected directly or via a charg-
ing lead with banana plug to the battery connec-
tion sockets arranged on the right side of the
charger. Ensure correct polarity when connecting
(red = + terminal/black = - terminal).
Although the charger output is protected against
polarity reversal and short-circuits they should,
nevertheless, be avoided and, if necessary,
immediately rectified.
