Operating manual GYSFLASH S 4.12 Translation of the original instructions Connection / disconnection:

• Ensure that the charger’s power supply is disconnected before plugging or unplugging the connections on the battery.

• Always ensure the Red clamp is connected to the «+» battery terminal rst. If it is necessary to connect the black clamp to the vehicle chassis, make sure it is a safe distance from the battery and the fuel/exhaust pipe. The charger must be connected to the mains.

• After charging, disconnect the charger from the mains, then disconnect the clamp from the car body and then disconnect the clamp from the battery, in the indicated order. Connection:

• The connection to the power supply must be carried out in compliance with national standards. Maintenance:

• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after sales service or an equally qualied person to prevent danger.

• Service should be performed by a qualied person

• Warning! Always remove the power plug from the wall socket before carrying out any work on the device. Regulations:

• Machine compliant with European directives.

Do not throw away in a domestic bin.8 Operating manual GYSFLASH S 4.12 Translation of the original instructions Do not operate on 230V - risk of explosion! GENERAL DESCRIPTION The GYSFLASH S 4.12 is ideal to charge most lead-acid batteries, often used for cars and many other vehicles. These batteries can be of many types eg: GEL (gel electrolyte), AGM (absorbed glass mat), WET, MF (Maintenance Free), CA (Calcium)... This charger has been designed to charge 12V batteries (6*2V elements) from 1.2 Ah to 90 Ah, or for oating charge up to 130 Ah. START UP

1. Connect the charger to the battery using the proper accessory (clamps, lugs, etc...).

2. Plug the charger to the mains (single phase 100-127 Vac 50-60Hz).

3. Select the mode by pressing the button. After roughly 5 seconds, the charge starts automatically.

4. During the charge, the device indicates the charge’s progress. When the indicator blinks, the battery is ready to start the vehicle. Once the indicator stays on, the battery is completely charged.

5. The charge can be interrupted at any time by unplugging the mains plug or pressing the

6. After charging, disconnect the charger from the mains, then disconnect the charger’s connections from the battery.

• Modes and Options: CHARGE mode (14.4V/0.8A) : Mode designed for lead-acid batteries, 12V from 1.2 Ah to 15Ah. 7 step automatic maintenance cycle. CHARGE mode (14.4V/4A) : Mode designed for lead-acid batteries, 12V from 15 Ah to 90 Ah and up to 130 Ah for oating charge. 7 step automatic maintenance cycle. COLD/AGM Option (14.7V) : Modies the charging voltage at 14.7V to charge the battery during cold weather (Less than 5°C) or for some AGM batteries or batteries with caps. SUPPLY Mode (13.6 V/4 A): This mode enables to use the charger as a stabilised power supply, with a voltage regulated at 13.6 V. This mode is designed for providing a power supply to demonstration vehicles and can also be used to replace a vehicle’s battery while maintaining the system’s memory. With this mode, there is no time limit. When the indicator is on, the volyage is properly regulated. If the indicator blinks, this means that the current absorbed by the battery is higher than the charger’s maximum current (4 A) and that the battery might end up being discharged. To access to this mode, press 5 seconds on the button. When this mode is selected, the three blue indicators for mode selection light on. And after roughly 5 seconds, the charge starts automatically.

• Charging curve : The GYSFLASH S 4.12 use an 7 step charging curve which guarantees optimal performance for your battery.

: Analysis Analyses the battery state (charge level, polarity inversion, wrong battery…) Step

: Charge ( 0.8A 4A) Fast charge with maximum current that can reach 80% charge level. Step

: Recovery ( 0.5A 2A) Damaged elements recovery due to an extended deep discharge algorithm. Step

: Absorption (14.4V or 14.7V with AGM option) Constant voltage charge to reach a 100% charge level. Step

: Test Sulfated battery test. Step

: Floating charge (13.6V) Maintains battery charge level at its maximum. Step

• Estimated charge time Battery capacity 2Ah 8Ah 15Ah 18Ah 50Ah 90Ah Charging time 20% >>> 80% 2h 6h 11h 3h 8h 14h If the motorbike is tted with a 12V plug, the GYSFLASH S 4.12 can charge the battery via this plug with the CAN-BUS system, without switching the dashboard on. In this setup, connect the cigarette lighter adapter on the charger and on the motorbike’s 12V socket then follow the «start up » procedure on the previous page. In certain cases, it is possible that the charge will only start 2 minutes after performing the connections.

• Protections : The GYSFLASH S 4.12 has several features to protect it against short-circuits or polarity inversion. It has an an- ti-spark feature which prevents sparks whilst connecting the device to the battery. This charger has double insulation and is compatible with vehicle’s onboard electronics. The GYSFLASH S 4.12 is tted with an integrated temperature probe that ensures that the charging current is adapted to the am- bient temprature to prevent internal electronics’ overheating. TROUBLESHOOTING Symptoms Causes Remedies

• Battery voltage is too high

• Clamps in short-circuit

• Check that the clamps are properly connected.

• Check that it is a 12V battery.

The indicator is on. Charge failure, battery non recoverable. Change the battery and press to restart a charge.

The indicator stays on even after pres- sing the button. Thermal protection. Ambient temperature is too high (>50°C), cool the room and let the charger cool down.

The indicator blinks. Charger in sleep mode. Press the button or connect a battery to the charger to exit sleep mode.

The indicator stays on. Charge interrupted by pressing the button. Press again to restart the charge. WARRANTY The warranty covers faulty workmanship for 2 years from the date of purchase (parts and labour). The warranty does not cover:
