After selecting the battery type connected (12 V or 24 V) the battery charger will recognise the battery capacity and the battery condition and calculate the required charging parameters (charging voltage, charging current). This allows for efficient and safe charging. If the wrong battery voltage is set or the battery is defective, it will not charge and the “Error” LED (15) will light up (also see “Trouble- shooting”). The “trickle charge” function allows the charger to be permanently connected. A full charge will be maintained. OPERATION Before use Warning!

CHARGING PHASES Step 1: Condition check The charger checks the battery condition and calculates the required charging parameters. Voltage Function 0 V to 0.5 V „Error“ LED (18) lights up. Incorrect connection.

0.5 V to 1.5 V „Bad Battery“ LED (10) lights up. Battery defective.

1.5 V to 12 V Charging will start.

12 V to 14 V Trickle charge will start. 14 V to 15 V Battery fully charged. „Full“ LED (11) lights up. >15 V „Error“ LED (18) lights up. Step 2: Precharging The battery is gently charged with a low charging current to return the battery to a chargeable state. Step 3: Soft start The battery is gently charged with a low charging current. Step 4: Full load charging The battery is quickly and safely charged at the set charging current. Step 5: Absorptionsladung The battery is charged at a current end-of-charge voltage until charging current no longer flows. Step 6 Float charge The charging voltage will be reduced, charging is complete. Step 7: Monitoring The charger monitors the battery capacity. Once the battery falls below 12.8 V, the charger will emit a charging pulse. This maintains the battery’s highest possible charging level.34 SAFETY FUNCTIONS The charger features the following safety features to prevent damage to the charger and the battery or the vehicle:
