Operating The Battery Charger; End-Of-Charging - Shido DC8.0 Mode D'emploi

OPERATING THE BATTERY CHARGER

1. Once the output leads have been connected to the battery, plug the power supply lead of the battery charger into
the mains, making sure the voltage matches the rated voltage of the battery charger;
2. With the battery charger in "stand-by" mode and the ON LED lighting up, set the charging parameters suitable for
the type of battery to charge using the key on the control panel. The charging process will start automatically.
Charging parameters that can be set:
Charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 50 Ah
2A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 80 Ah
Suitable for charging WET or GEL batteries
Charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 80 Ah
8A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 250Ah
Suitable for charging WET or GEL batteries
Charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 50 Ah
2A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 80 Ah
Suitable for charging AGM-START&STOP and AGM-SPIRAL or WET batteries with
temperatures below 5 °C
Charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 80 Ah
8A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 250Ah
Suitable for charging AGM-START&STOP and AGM-SPIRAL or WET batteries with
temperatures below 5 °C
Charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 50 Ah
2A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 5 Ah to 80 Ah
Suitable for charging lithium batteries: LiFePO4 (do not charge other types of lithium batteries)
Charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 80 Ah
8A
Maintenance charge for 12V batteries, 50 Ah a 250Ah
Suitable for charging lithium batteries: LiFePO4 (do not charge other types of lithium batteries)
For WET batteries which have not been used for a long time and in which the acid has stratified.
Caution: Because of the high voltage reached during this charging cycle, the battery recovery
process must be performed with the battery disconnected from the vehicle. Recovery with the
battery connected to the vehicle may result in damage to the vehicle's electronics.
Power supply function: 13.8V – 5A, max. 80 watts. To activate: connect to the battery
SUPPLY
This function is used to keep a vehicle's memory banks active while the battery is being changed
or whenever the battery is disconnected from the vehicle's circuit. CAUTION: IN THIS
FUNCTION, THE BATTERY CHARGER IS NOT PROTECTED AGAINST POLARITY
REVERSAL. RISK OF DAMAGE!
Charge indicators:
The battery is charging.
The battery is fully charged (100%); the battery charger will switch to the maintenance step, keeping the
state of
efficiency of the battery constantly monitored, so that it is always at an optimal level of charge.
The display will show the word FULL, which will alternate with the maintenance voltage of the battery
INTERRUPTION OF THE CHARGE CYCLE IN CASE OF MAINS BLACKOUT
In case of blackouts in the 230V mains, the battery charger saves the work cycle it was performing in order to restore
it automatically as soon as the power supply of the 230V mains is restored. This function is crucially important if the
battery charger is used to charge batteries without the operator supervising the cycle; for example, during very long
work cycles (maintenance charges) or when charging overnight (charges for vehicles that need to be charged daily).
(The set parameters are stored for 12 hours; after 12 hours the battery charger will resume charging with the default
parameters).

END-OF-CHARGING

1. Unplug the power supply lead of the battery charger from the mains.
2. Disconnect the output lead with black clamp from either the vehicle's earthing point or the negative terminal (-) of
the battery.
3. Disconnect the output lead with red clamp from the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
