OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT : Read completely before use.

Automatic charger for lead/acid engine-start batteries of voltage type matching the rated output voltage stated on the

charger. Not for charging dry cell or NiCad batteries.Input voltage :110-120V~.Minimum rated capacity of battery to

be charged : at 12V - 4A,10Ah; at 12V - 6A,15Ah; at 12V - 7A,17Ah; at 24V - 3,5A, 8Ah.

IMPORTANT ! If the charger has a charging output selector switch to select for 12V batteries (which have

6 cells) or 24V batteries (which have 12 cells), IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THAT THE SELECTOR SWITCH IS

CORRECTLY POSITIONED ACCORDING TO THE VOLTAGE OF THE BATTERY TO BE CHARGED BEFORE THE CHARGER

IS CONNECTED TO IT. If not sure, contact the battery supplier for advice before connecting the charger.

WARNING ! Connecting a battery without ensuring that the charging output selection is appropriate to the

nominal battery voltage may cause a hazard resulting in the production & accumulation of dangerous explosive

gases as well as the overheating and potential destruction or even the explosion of the battery.

THIS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.

CARE : Protect your charger & it’s leads,connectors,fuse holders,fuses & terminations from contamination

by acids and fluids, from exposure to damp and humidity, and from physical and accidental damage. Any

damage to the unit, its leads or accessory parts resulting from such contamination, exposure or damage is

NOT covered by warranty, both during use and in storage.

CONNECTIONS: An additional fused cordset is supplied with eyelets for direct connection to battery terminals and

a polarized push connector for connection to battery charger.Consult a professional service agent to permanently connect

the cordset to the battery in the vehicle.Ensure that it is positioned and restrained in such a way that it does not impede

operation of any moving part of the vehicle and will not cause any danger of electrical short circuit during the normal use

of the vehicle.Protect the polarized connector from ingress of grime and dirt.Before connecting the polarized connector

to the battery charger, ensure that : ❶ the vehicle is stationary and not operational; ❷ all accessories in the vehicle are

switched off; ❸ the polarized connector is completely dry and free of grime and dirt, and ❹ the battery charger is not

connected to AC mains power.

The fuse in the cordset is intended to protect against overheating of the cordset and/or the

battery in case of an accidental

short across the cordset wires.The charger is itself electronically protected against this.

Should the fuse for any reason blow, have the cordset carefully checked and replace if necessary. Replace a blown fuse

only with a fuse of identical rating and type.

If intending to charge using the battery clips,first disconnect and remove the battery from the vehicle and place in a well-

ventilated area.Ensure that the polarised 2-pin connector is situated away from the battery. Prevent ingress of grime and

dirt to the 2-pin connector. If in any doubt concerning any of the above instructions, consult a professional service

agent for assistance. Other specialised connection accessories are available as options.Ask your dealer for details.

TEMPERATURE :

This charger monitors both it’s own internal temperature,which it limits automatically by current

regulation,and the surrounding ambient temperature,according to which it varies its charging output voltage parameters.

Should the internal temperature rise excessively due to restricted ventilation or extreme ambient conditions,the charging

output will be reduced automatically until the internal temperature has stabilised at a safe level.Some models of this charger

have a built-in cooling fan.Should the fan be jammed or out of order, the charger will be disabled and should be sent to

a service agent for checking and repair. The charging output voltage parameters are increased or decreased according to

decreases or increases respectively in the monitored ambient temperature,the nominal voltage parameters for each stage

of charging being set at a 20°C (68°F) datum.On removal of the ambient temperature sensor which is plugged in at the

rear of the charger,the voltage parameters will revert to their default settings as enumerated in the «Charging Procedure»

text below. For more exacting applications,the standard plug-in sensor can be removed and replaced by an optional 2m

long probe whose NTC thermistor tip when taped to the battery casing affords precise monitoring of the actual battery

temperature for optimum voltage management.Order reference AMPROTPRO2.

FUSES:

The charger is electronically protected against short-circuited output and inverted connections,and sparks due

to making/breaking battery connections or accidental short-circuiting, are suppressed though not necessarily totally

absent.In addition the charger is protected by several fuses,located both externally and internally. A fuse at the AC input

protects against mains input disturbances. To replace this fuse,use a suitable coin or screwdriver to twist open the fuse

cover. An internal fuse protects against possible cooling fan malfunction.A thermal fuse acts as final protection against

transformer burn-out.Do not attempt to replace internal fuses, send the charger to an authorised service agent.Should

the input protection fuse blow, check the input power cable and plug for damage or wear.

Replace any burnt fuse only with a new fuse of identical type and rating.
