6.1 PREPARATION

Clean the battery pole of dust and corrosion residue. Only for open batteries: Top up with distilled water until the minimum filling level is reached. Leave the
cells of the battery open until the end of the charging process. With maintenance-free batteries, follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer precisely.

6.2 CONNECTING THE BATTERY CHARGER

Caution: Make sure that the charger is not connected to the power socket. Always first connect the red plus cable (+) of the charger to the
plus pole of the battery. Then connect the black minus cable (-) to the minus pole of the battery. If you wish to charge the battery while it is
installed, connect the black minus cable (-) to the chassis, far away from the battery, carburettor and fuel lines. Always stick to this sequence.
Caution: After plugging the mains cable inselect the desired charging pro- gramme by operating the MODE button multiple times.
If the MODE button is not pressed, the charging process is not started. When charging has started it is no longer possible to switch to
another charging program, If you wish to work with a program other than the set charging program, pull the plug out of the socket and
wait until the display has gone dark. Then insert the plug again and proceed as described above.
Now, connect the power plug of the charger to the mains socket. The background illumination of the display is activated.
If the battery has been connected incorrectly (wrong poles) or the charger has no contact, the following error message appears on the display „
the error message „ „ is shown, a defective 6 V battery has been connected, this cannot be charged using the battery charger. If the battery has been
correctly connected, the display shows the current battery voltage and the symbol for the set charging programme. By pressing (multiple times) the MODE
button, you can select the appropriate charging programme for your needs.
The charging programmes appear in the following order and may be selected by pressing the MODE button:
Motorbike 6 V
Motorbike 12 V
Car 12 V
Depending on the charging state of the battery, the device adapts the charging current in order to best charge the connected battery. The specified maxi-
mum charging current is only used during the main charging phase. Shortly before the full charging capacity is achieved, the device switches to a lower
charging current. This ensures that the battery is gently and optimally charged to full capacity.
The battery symbol (7) (Figure 2: Display) shown on the display indicates the current filling level of the battery.
