INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
SIGNALLING LEDS
The front panel of the battery charger accommodates 15 LEDs, including 4 battery status LEDs,
indicating the following:
• "Full": battery is charged, and is in charge maintenance status
• "Charging": battery is charging
• "Fault": battery is damaged
• "Reverse": polarity reversal
• 1 battery charge status LED, "led ON" (blue colour)
• 1 operating status LED, "Start/Stop" (yellow colour); indicates whether output is in accordance with
selected mode
• 2 charge voltage LEDs, "Voltage", described below (yellow LED)
• 4 charge function LEDs, "Function", described below (yellow LED)
• 3 battery type LEDs, "Batt" , described below (yellow LED).
The front panel of the battery charger accommodates 5 buttons:
• "Start/Stop": starts or stops supply in selected mode
• "Voltage": selects operating mode
• "Function": selects operating mode, Charge or Flash
• "Batt": selects type of battery to charge
• "A/V" (display): selects information to display; voltage or current
BATTERY CHARGER FEATURES AND OPERATING MODES
Charge (12V batteries)
Battery charging mode. There are 7 charging steps, as described below:
• STEP 1: Test 1. If battery output is above 7.5V, the unit proceeds with the next step. Outputs below
7.5V will cause the device to revert to stand-by.
• STEP 2: Pre-charge. Charge starts at a constant current, until battery voltage reaches 13V.
• STEP 3: Test 2 (the message "tESt" is shown on the display). Checks whether the battery has short-
circuited elements. The battery charger stops supplying current for 5 minutes. If during this time battery
voltage falls below 11.7V, the device reverts to stand-by. If voltage remains above 11.7V, the battery
charger moves on to STEP 4. If any element short-circuits or the battery becomes sulphated (as
RECOVERY mode.
• STEP 4: Deep cycle charging. The battery charges until the set limit is reached.
• STEP 5: Constant voltage. Keeps the battery at charge end voltage.
• STEP 6: Buffer. Voltage falls to the maintenance level and the charging cycle is completed. The green
FULL LED turns on.
• STEP 7: Pulsed current cycle. Pulsed battery maintenance cycle (over long periods).
Flash
Power Supplier mode assisting in motor vehicle programming. No charge phase occurs in it. It is just
a power supplier stabilized at rated battery voltage. It is designed to deliver current supporting the battery, to
Minimum battery voltage
For the two modes, "Charge & Flash", use the RECOVERY feature if battery voltage is below the
following values:
• 6V battery – measured voltage: 4V
• 12V battery – measured voltage: 7.5V
• 24V battery – measured voltage: 15V
Recovery (12V batteries)
Recovery mode for sulphated batteries accessible by a prolonged press of the "Batt" key. The screen
