tabs. In exceptional cases where your units require the use of earthing pins, we supply* a 16 A pin adaptor (compliant with
NF C 61-314).
*Contact our sales department on 0 825 004 002 (calls charged at €0.15 per min inc. tax) and provide proof of purchase.
After use, always disconnect the adaptor and store it carefully, away from sources of humidity. Always ensure

Charging a battery (12V socket)
This unit is equipped with a 12 V socket (A21) which can be used for occasional brief battery charging operations up to 40Ah
maximum, when semi-discharged.
1.
Disconnect the battery and remove it from the vehicle.
2.

Check the battery regularly using a hydrometer (acidimeter) and use a charge controller to monitor the charge.
The unit does not have a charge controller, therefore the charge is not regulated or limited.
8.
Once charging is complete, switch off the unit then disconnect the cables from the battery and the unit.
9.
Store the cables and refit the battery in the vehicle, observing the polarities.
Simultaneous use of the electrical socket and 12V socket is possible, but the total consumption in watts (W) must not exceed the
nominal power of the unit.

Switching the generating set off
1.
Shut down and disconnect the equipment used from the electrical sockets (A20) or the battery from the 12V socket (A21),
