2. Connect charger to the battery with the correct polarity

First connect the charger to the battery to be charged. Connect the red pole terminal to the positive pole (+) of the battery, then the black pole terminal to the negative (-) pole of the battery. Make sure that the battery terminals are connected correctly. If the battery is installed in the vehicle and the battery terminals are not accessible, please consult the vehicle manual for advice.

If the clamps are accidentally attached to the poles the wrong way around, the "FAULT" LED lights red. Reconnect the terminals with the correct polarity immediately.

3. Connect the device to the mains supply

Insert the mains plug of the charger into the socket and switch on.

The „POWER“ LED will lights green.

4. Battery is charged

After connecting the mains cord and the battery terminal the "POWER" LED and the "CHARGE" LED will lights green.

5. Battery fully charged

Once the battery is fully charged the "CHARGE" LED goes out and the "FULL" LED will lights green. Unplug the mains cord and afterwards remove the battery terminals of the battery, first the black terminal (-) and then the red (+) terminal.

6. Trickle charge

Alternatively, the battery can be left connected for an extended period (e.g. for the winter). The charger detects any loss of capacity and recharges automatically.
