3.6. STORAGE OF YOUR BOOSTER
– The Booster can be stored in any position, without any danger for the batteries,
because those are dry batteries, pure lead.
– When not using the Booster for long periods of time, recharge the unit with the
original automatic electric 230V or 110V AC /12V DC charger every three months
for 48 hours.
– Do not store your Booster below 0°C (32° Fahrenheit) if you want
to use it urgently. Too cold, the Booster will miss performance.
The ideal operating temperature is between 10 to 25°C
(50 to 77° Fahrenheit).
– Clamps must be stored on their support posts, ensuring they do not come to
contact with any metallic surface. During charge there is current on the clamps and
you will melt the contacts (poles) in the charging plug.
4. PREVENTING PREMATURE FAILURE OF YOUR BOOSTER'S BATTERIES
Correctly recharging the Booster batteries, increases its efficiency and its lifetime !
4.1. RECHARGING
1. The Booster must be imperatively put on permanent charge between use.
è Why ?
– Below 12,4V, the Booster batteries will start to sulphate and irreversible lose
performance. The lower the voltage, and the longer the time spent in a discharged
state, the deeper the sulphation. When not in use, the Booster batteries must
never drop below 12,4V (well-charged = 13V).
