6.2 Using the adapter charging cable
The adapter charging cable with pole callipers (Position F in the overview) is used if you wish to connect the charger in the classic way to the poles of the battery. The adapter charging cable with eyes (Position E in the overview) is designed to remain firmly attached to a battery which is difficult to access. The charger can be conveniently connected using the adapter.
6.3 Preparation
Clean the battery poles to remove dust and corrosion residue.
Only for open batteries: Remove the plugs of the battery cells. Check the liquid level in the cells, consult the operating instructions of your battery for more information. Replenish only sufficient distilled water to ensure that the minimum filling level is achieved. The liquid will expand during the charging process and the battery may overflow. Leave the cells of the battery open until the end of the charging process.
In the event of closed and maintenance-free batteries, please follow the instructions of the battery manufacturer to the letter.
6.4 Connecting the battery charger
6.4.1 Connecting the adapter charging cable with pole callipers
Caution: Make sure that the charger is not connected to the power socket and that the adapter charging cable is not connected to the battery charger.
Always connect the red plus cable (+) to the positive pole of the battery first. Subsequently, connect the black minus cable (-) to the negative pole of the battery. If you charge the battery in situ, connect the black negative cable (-) to the car body (exposed part), far away from the battery, the carburettor and fuel lines. Always maintain this sequence.
6.4.2 Connecting the adapter charging cable with eyes
Caution: Make sure that the charger is not connected to the power socket and that the adapter charging cable is not connected to the battery charger.
Attach the eye of the red plus cable to the plus connection cable of your vehicle battery, e.g. the screws of the pole terminal. Attach the eye of the black minus cable to the earth connection cable (minus cable) of your battery. Lay the cable so that it is free from bends and tensions. It may not be attached in the vicinity of hot or rotating parts of the motor. The connection plug may not get wet.
6.5 Charging the battery
Connect the adapter charging cable to the charging cable (Position D in the overview) of the battery charger. Now connect the mains connection cable (Position A in the overview) of the battery charger to the power socket. The background illumination of the display is activated.
If the battery has been connected incorrectly (wrong poles) or the charger has no contact, the following error message appears on the display "Er1". If the error message "Er2" is shown, a defective 6 V battery has been connected, this cannot be charged using the battery charger. If the battery has been correctly connected, the display shows the current battery voltage and the symbol for the set charging programme.
Caution: After plugging the mains cable inselect the desired charging pro-gramme by operating the MODE button multiple times. If the MODE button is not pressed, the charging process is not started. When charging has started it is no longer possible to switch to another charging program, If you wish to work with a program other than the set charging program, pull the plug out of the socket and wait until the display has gone dark. Then insert the plug again and proceed as described above.
6.5.1 Selecting the charging programme
By pressing the MODE button (multiple times), you can select the appropriate charging programme for your needs. The charging programmes appear in the following order and may be selected by pressing the MODE button:
Motorbike 6 V
Motorbike 6 V winter
Motorbike 12 V
Motorbike 12 V winter
Car 12 V

Depending on the charging state of the battery, the device adapts the charging current in order to best charge the connected battery. The specified maximum charging current is only used during the main charging phase. Shortly before the full charging capacity is achieved, the device switches to a lower charging current. This ensures that the battery is gently and optimally charged to full capacity. The battery symbol (Position 7 in the overview) shown on the display indicates the current filling level of the battery. Das im Display angezeigte Batteriesymbol (Position 7 in der Übersicht), zeigt den aktuellen Füllstand der Batterie an.
