■ The automatic mode of operation and usage
restrictions are explained below in these operat-
ing instructions.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
■ Do not operate the appliance with a damaged ca-
ble, supply cord or mains plug. A damaged power
cord causes danger to life by electric shock.
■ If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualifi ed persons in order to avoid a hazard.
■ Before connecting to the mains, make sure that
the mains current is a standard 230 V~50 Hz,
equipped with an earthed neutral conductor, a
16 A fuse and a residual-current circuit breaker
(RCCB)!
■ Disconnect the charger from the mains before
making connections to the battery.
■ Always connect positive terminal fi rst and then
the negative to earth/bodywork away from any
fuel lines. Only then connect the charger to the
mains power supply.
■ Disconnect the charger from the mains power
supply after charging. Only then remove the
terminal clamp from the vehicle bodywork/
earth. Then remove the terminal clamp from the
vehicle bodywork/earth.
RISK OF EXPLOSION AND FIRE!
Protect yourself from a highly explosive oxyhydrogen
gas reaction!
■ Make sure that there are no sources of open fi re
(fl ames, embers or sparks) in the vicinity when
charging or discharging batteries!
■ Make sure that the positive terminal connecting
cable has no contact with a fuel line (e.g. petrol
line)!
■ Make sure that no explosive and fl ammable
substances, e.g. petrol or solvents, can be
ignited when using the charger!
■ Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during
charging.
RISK OF CHEMICAL BURNS!
■ Wear safety goggles! Wear protective gloves!
If your eyes or skin come into contact with
battery acid, rinse the aff ected part of the body
with plenty of clear running water and seek
immediate medical assistance!
■ Avoid an electric short-circuit when connecting
the charger to the battery. Connect the negative
terminal connecting cable to the negative terminal
of the battery or to the vehicle bodywork/earth
only. Connect the positive terminal connect-
ing cable only to the positive terminal of the
battery!
■ Do not set up the charger near a fi re or subject
it to heat or to long-term temperatures exceeding
50°C!
■ When attaching the charger, be sure not to
damage any lines for fuel, electricity, braking
system, hydraulics or water with screws!
■ Do not cover the charger with objects of any kind!
■ Protect the electrical contacts of the battery
against short-circuiting!
■ Use the charger exclusively for charging or
trickle charging undamaged 6 V/12 V lead
batteries! Frozen batteries may not be charged.
Operation
Before fi rst use
♦ Before connecting the battery charger, read the
operating instructions of the battery thoroughly.
♦ In addition, observe the vehicle manufacturer's
instructions for a permanently connected bat-
tery. Secure the vehicle; turn off the ignition.
♦ Clean the battery terminals. Ensure that no dirt
comes into contact with your eyes in the process.
♦ Provide for suffi cient ventilation.
Connection
♦ Before starting the charging or trickle charging
procedure on a permanently installed battery in
a vehicle, fi rst disconnect the negative terminal
connecting cable (black) of the vehicle from the
negative terminal of the battery. The negative
terminal of the battery is usually connected to
the vehicle's bodywork/earth.
♦ Then disconnect the positive terminal connect-
ing cable (red) of the vehicle from the positive
terminal of the battery.
