(for example, with white matter between the plates, plates touching). If mechanical defects are apparent do not
attempt to charge the battery, have the battery professionally assessed.

instructions carefully. If applicable, carefully and exactly follow acid filling instructions.

A battery left deep-discharged for an extended period may develop permanent damage in one or more cells.
Such batteries may heat up excessively during high current charging.
Monitor the battery temperature during the first hour, then hourly there-after. Check for unusual signs, such as bubbling or
leaking electrolyte, heightened activity in one cell compared to others, or hissing sounds. If at any time the battery is
uncomfortably hot to touch or you notice any unusual signs, DISCONNECT THE CHARGER IMMEDIATELY.

switches to ECO mode when the charger is not connected to a battery resulting in a very low power draw of less than 0,5W,
equivalent to power consumption of 0,012 kWh per day. When a battery is connected to the charger power consumption
depends on the current demand of the battery and its connected vehicle / electronic circuitry. After the battery has been
charged and the charger is in long term maintenance charge mode (to keep the battery at 100% charge) the total power
consumption is estimated to be 0,060 kWh or less per day.

 CHARGE: The BULK CHARGE stage ( LED #3) delivers a constant current of about 0,8 Amps maximum into the
battery, up to a voltage of 14,2 -14,5V.
 VERIFICATION: LED #4 turns on while the circuit verifies battery charge level.
If the battery requires further charging the programme reverts to BULK CHARGE (LED #3) for brief periods,
delivering a variable current pulse to the battery. These reversions may occur as many times as is necessary to
reduce the battery’s current demand below 200mA at 13,6V (which is consistent with a battery that has accepted
as much charge as its basic condition allows). (see expected Charging time below.
If LED#3 and #4 alternates every 2-3 seconds the battery may be in a sulphated condition and unable to initially
accept charge current. Monitor for 2 hours whilst the charger attempts to deliver charge to the battery. A lightly
sulphated battery may recover and accept full charge current as confirmed by a steady LED#3. If the condition
remains unchanged the battery may be in an advanced state of sulphation and that despite recovery attempts the
battery was irrecoverable. This may be due to a defect in the battery itself, such as a short-circuited cell or total
sulphation, or, in the case of a battery still connected to the vehicle’s wiring system, it may be signalling a loss of
current through deteriorated wiring or a degraded switch or contact, or in-circuit current-consuming accessories.
A sudden load such as the headlights being switched on while the charger is connected can also cause the
battery voltage to dip significantly. Always remove the battery from the vehicle, reconnect the OptiMate
™
and
allow it to proceed through its programme once more.
