« FUSE » button to restore the circuit.
For 24 Volt boosters (B24.1 and B24.2) and booster 12V-24V (B124.1) :
• The B24.1 and B24.2 BOOSTERS are fitted with a 500A fuse protecting the booster (not the vehicle) in case of improper
use, such as a short-circuit, a polarity reversion, or a strong overcharge.
• FACOM B24.1 and B24.2 BOOSTERS are fitted with two identical fuses. The fuse on the right-hand side, i.e. negative
terminal side (black cable and clamp) of the BOOSTER is the operating fuse.
