Frequently Asked Questions - ABSLS 60 Absaar

How to charge a battery with the ABSLS 60?

First connect the red clamp to the positive battery terminal, then the black clamp to the negative terminal. Plug the charger into a 230 V outlet. Select the appropriate voltage (6, 12 or 24 V) with the switch, then set the desired charging current. Monitor the process: once the battery is charged (voltage of 14.4 V for a 12 V battery or current below 500 mA), turn off the charger and disconnect the clamps in reverse order.

How to use the jump start function?

Connect the clamps to the vehicle battery terminals. Select the correct voltage. Plug in the charger and set the mode switch to 'Jump start'. For the SLS series, set the current to level 6. Press the button on the wired remote control while starting the engine. Release the button as soon as the engine starts. If start fails, wait 3 to 5 minutes for the circuit breaker to cool down before trying again.

What is the maximum recommended battery capacity?

For the ABSLS 60, the recommended battery capacity varies according to the current setting. For example, at setting 1 (0.5 A), use a battery of less than 5 Ah; at setting 4 (20 A), up to 200 Ah; at setting 6 (60 A), up to 620 Ah. Consult the table in the manual for exact values.

Does the charger stop automatically?

No, the SL and SLS models do not have automatic shut-off at the end of charging. You must monitor the process and disconnect manually. The SLS model has an adjustable timer that can cut off power after a set time, but it is recommended not to leave the charger plugged in unsupervised.

What to do if the circuit breaker trips?

Wait at least 2 minutes for cooling, then press the circuit breaker to reset it until it clicks. If the problem persists, check the battery and connections. In case of polarity reversal, the internal fuse may blow; replace it with a spare fuse provided.

Can I charge non-rechargeable batteries?

No, never attempt to charge non-rechargeable primary batteries. This could cause leakage, overheating, or explosion. Use only rechargeable lead-acid or AGM batteries.

How to maintain the battery to extend its life?

Check electrolyte level once a month and add distilled water if necessary. Clean terminals to prevent sulfation and apply some grease. If the vehicle is rarely used, recharge the battery regularly to compensate for self-discharge.

Can I use the charger indoors?

Yes, but only in a well-ventilated area as explosive gases may be emitted. Do not place the charger near flames or sparks. Do not expose it to rain or moisture.

What to do in case of contact with battery electrolyte?

Wash the affected area immediately and abundantly with cold water. If acid gets into the eyes, rinse them with plenty of water and consult a doctor urgently.

How to get spare parts?

Contact your dealer or an authorized Absaar service center. The charger is supplied with spare fuses. Ensure you use original parts for safety.

2. VoltAgE SEIEctor SWitch: 6V / 12V / 24V

The 6V/12 Volt / 24 Volt selector switch allows you to charge 6 Volt, 12 Volt or 24 Volt batteries. The voltage of the battery that you want to charge must correspond to the battery charger's voltage: only then can the charger be connected to the battery. Connecting the battery to the charger when the voltages do not match will cause battery damage. Check the battery voltage before starting the charging process. 3-cell batteries typically have a nominal voltage of 6 V; 6-cell batteries typically have a nominal voltage of 12 V; 12-cell batteries typically have a nominal voltage of 24 V.

5. digitAI VoltS-AmmEtEr

888 AMP VOLT

The SL and SLS series feature a digital voltage / current toggle instrument.

The built-in voltage/amperage instrument lets you monitor the current charging status of your battery at any time. Toggle between voltage and amperage to see if the battery has reached the desired voltage / charging current. When reaching a voltage of 7.2V (6-Volt battery), 14.4V (12-Volt battery) or 28.8V (24-Volt battery) or whenever the charging current is lower than < 500mA, your battery is fully charged. The charging current supplied to the battery and the charging time depend on the battery status. The charging current will thus never be constant during the entire charging process but will decrease gradually as the charging level increases. When connecting the charger to an empty battery, the charging current will be high. As the charging level increases, the charging current will decrease.

6. timEr (SIS chArgEr SEriES)

The built-in time allows time, this means that t

e charger to be automatically powered off after the set charging process must not be terminated manually.

A battery of a capacity compatible with the charger and discharged by 50% can be fully recharged within 8 to 10 hours. Set the desired charging time (hours) by turning the dial knob. After the set time has elapsed, the charger will power off.

7. gEtting StArtEd

• Before powering the device on, you should ascertain the required current setting.
• Connect the positive clamp (red cable) of the charger to the positive battery pole.
• Connect the negative clamp (black cable) of the charger to the negative battery pole.
• Connect the power cord to a 230V wall outlet.
• Set the desired charging voltage (6 / 12 / 24V).
• Set the charging current to the desired value and power the charger on.

An empty battery needs approx. 5 to 10 hours for recharging. The charging time depends on the battery status.

CAUTION: SL and SLS series chargers have no automatic charging control: they do not power off automatically after the charging process has finished. It is therefore necessary to monitor the charging process in order to power the charger off and disconnect it from the battery once the battery is fully charged. If you leave the device connected to the battery for too long, damage to the battery will occur.

SLS chargers have a timer that will power off the device after the set time (hours). We recommend that you use this feature.

DIRECTIONS OF USE

After the charging process is completed:

• Power the charger off.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
- Disconnect the negative clamp (black cable) of the charger from the negative battery pole.
- Disconnect the positive clamp (red cable) of the charger from the positive battery pole.

8. JUmP-StArt

SL and SLS series chargers feature a jump-start function. If your vehicle engine does not start, you can use this function to jump-start the engine in order to get back on the road quickly. To jump-start your engine:

• Connect the charger clamps to the poles of the installed vehicle battery respecting the polarity. Make sure that they have a good electrical contact.
• Set the voltage selector switch according to the battery's nominal voltage.
• Connect the device to the wall outlet and set the mode selector switch to the „Jump Start“ position.
• Set the current selector switch to level 6 (for the SLS series only).
• To jump-start the vehicle engine, press the wired remote control button and start the engine at the same time.
  • Once the vehicle engine has started, release the remote control button.
• If the engine jump-start fails, the built-in breaker will release after approx. 30 seconds.
• After cooling down for 3 to 5 minutes, the breaker can be pushed in again and you can repeat the above procedure. If necessary, check the vehicle ignition system and electrical systems.
• Also check the User's Manual for your vehicle.
  • We recommend that you first pre-charge the battery for approx. 5 to 10 minutes.

10. FUSES

If the breaker releases upon overload, push the breaker back in until it clicks into place.

Note: please wait at least 2 minutes before attempting to reset the breaker (required cooling time).

All chargers feature an additional thermal safety circuit. This thermal safety circuit protects the charger from extreme overload and overheating resulting from improper operation. In such cases, the charger will power off automatically and then back on again after cooling down for approx. 10 to 15 minutes.

If the polarity is reversed, the fuse will blow and will need to be replaced. You can find it behind the black fuse holder cover on the back panel of the device. Spare fuses are supplied with the device.

The charger can also power off if the battery is exceptionally discharged and demands a very high charging current. If your device features a current selector switch, please start the charging process on level 1 or 2. After approx. half an hour you can increase the charging current.

11. kEEP yoUr bAttEry in good condition

You can significantly extend the battery life by following these tips:

Check the electrolyte level monthly and, if necessary, add distilled water. The charging status can be controlled with a densitometer. Do not allow the battery poles to become sulphatised. Clean the poles regularly and apply a little grease. If you only drive short distances or in town, your battery becomes extremely loaded. If you use your vehicle rarely, the battery is subject to self-discharge. You should therefore regularly check the optimum charging status of your battery to assure a long battery life. Regular maintenance translates into cost-effectiveness.
