When recharging a WET-type battery, proceed as follows:

- Remove the caps of the battery charger (if foreseen) so as to let the

gas produced go out. Check that the level of the electrolyte covers

the plates of the battery. If these were not covered add distilled

water and cover them up to 5-10 mm.

WARNING: USE THE MAXIMUM CAUTION DURING

THIS OPERATION AS THE ELECTROLYTE IS A HIGHLY

- Make sure the power cable is disconnected from the mains.

- With models having more than one charge voltage, turn the

deviator or the switch to the selected charge voltage. If there is

no deviator or switch, suitably connect the red crocodile clip (+

symbol) to the specic battery charger terminal in correspondence

with the selected charge voltage.

- Connect the red charge clamp to the positive terminal of the battery

( + symbol). If the symbols are indistinguishable remember that the

positive terminal is the one not connected to the vehicle chassis.

- Connect the black charge clamp to the vehicle chassis, at a safe

distance from the battery and the fuel pipe.

NOTE: if the battery is not installed in the vehicle, connect the clamp

directly to the negative terminal of the battery (- symbol).

NOTE: the Ah values, if given beside the pushbuttons, are purely

indicative (because the charging process depends on how at the

battery is) and they suggest the position for charging an initially at

battery with capacity within the indicated range, in under 15 hours. It

is not advisable to go below the minimum values that are indicated.

Recommended method for free electrolyte lead acid batteries (WET).

- Carefully follow the instructions given in paragraphs 6.1 and 6.2.

- Move the deviator (if present) to the BATTERY symbol.

- Turn the charge adjustment deviator/deviators or switch (if present)

(FIG. C) the normal charge position (BATTERY symbol) or fast

charge position (BOOST) as required (with some models the

switch also acts as a power switch).

- If the battery charger has a TIMER a maximum pre-set charge time

can be set (FIG. C).

- Power the battery charger by inserting the power supply cable into

the power outlet and turning the switch (if present) to ON.

- Monitor the ammeter as described in paragraph 4.

NOTE: Once the WET battery is charged, you may note the liquid

inside starting to “boil”. It is advisable to stop charging when this

phenomenon appears so as to prevent damage to the battery.

We recommend using models with the TRONIC mode to charge

sealed batteries (GEL, AGM).

- Carefully follow the instructions given in paragraphs 6.1 and 6.2.

- Turn the deviator to TRONIC and the charge adjustment switch

to the normal charge position (BATTERY symbol) or fast charge

position (BOOST) as required (FIG. C).

- Power the battery charger by inserting the power cable into the

mains socket. The battery charger controls the voltage present at

the battery terminals, automatically interrupting the current being

supplied when the battery is charged (the ammeter indicator

positions itself at zero) and supplying it again automatically when

the battery begins running down. The TRONIC mode is ideal for

automatically maintaining the battery charged (AGM and WET)

without the risk of damaging it.

For “parallel” connection batteries must have the same nominal

voltage (Volt), which corresponds to the battery charger output

voltage, and the total of Ah must be within the charge range of the

battery charger.

For “serial” connection batteries must have the same capacity

(Ah) and the sum of the nominal voltages of all the batteries must

correspond to the battery charger output voltage.

- Remove the power supply from the battery charger by turning the

switch to OFF (if present) and/or removing the power supply cable

from the mains outlet.

- Disconnect the black charge clamp from the chassis of the vehicle

or from the negative terminal of the battery (- symbol).

- Disconnect the red charge clamp from the positive terminal of the

battery (+ symbol).

- Store the battery charger in a dry place.

- Close up the battery cells with the appropriate plugs (if present).

manufacturer’s instructions carefully!

- Make sure the power line is protected by fuses or automatic

circuit-breakers with sizes as indicated on the rating plate by the (

) symbol.

- To make starting easier, quickly charge for 10-15 minutes at the

BOOST/BOOST&GO position (see paragraph 6.3.1).

- In order to prevent overheating in the battery charger, ALWAYS

carry out the starting operation according to the duty cycle (work/

pause) as indicated on the appliance (e.g. START 3s ON 120s

OFF-5 CYCLES). Do not insist if the engine does not start: this

could cause serious damage to the battery or even to the electrical

equipment in the vehicle. If the engine does not start, wait a few

minutes and then repeat the rapid charge operation.

- With the power cable disconnected from the mains, if necessary,

turn the deviator to 12V or 24V or suitably connect the red crocodile

clip to the specic battery charger terminal, according to the

nominal voltage of the battery of the vehicle to be started.

- Make sure the battery is connected properly to the respective (+

and -) terminals, and that it is in good condition (not sulphated or

dud). Never ever start vehicles with the batteries disconnected

from their respective terminals; the presence of the battery is

essential for the elimination of possible overvoltage.

The battery charger protects itself from:

- Overcharge (too much current supplied to the battery).

- Short-circuit (loading clips placed in contact with each other).

- Polarity inversion on the battery clamps.

For appliances tted with fuses, if the fuses have to be replaced

always use the same kind of fuse with the same rated size.

WARNING: If the replacement fuse has a different size from that

shown on the rating plate it could cause damage to people or

property. For the same reason, never ever replace the fuse with a

bridge in copper or other material.

The power supply cable should always be DISCONNECTED from the

mains supply while the fuse is being changed.

When replacing the ribbon fuse, if present, carefully fasten the nuts.
