11GBOperationIn this event, verify the connection clamps 6 ,7 are correctly connected to the battery andthe correct battery type is selected. If the displayis still continuously lit, the battery may be de-fective.Digital Display button 1 : Use to switch be-tween the digital display of voltage and chargingprogress in percent (Battery %). Use this button toswitch between the following displays:– Battery %: indicates the charging progress forthe connected battery in percent.– Voltage: indicates the voltage of the connectedbattery.– Alternator %: output power in percentBattery Type button 2 : Use this button to setthe battery type to be charged. You can choose frombattery types. The battery type must absolutely becorrectly selected before starting the charging pro-cess:– 12 V Regular: these batteries (lead-acid batteries)are typically used in cars, lorries and motorcycles.They have vent caps and are often labelled“low-maintenance“ or “maintenance-free“. Thisbattery type is designed to quickly transfer ener-gy (e.g. starting an engine). “Regular“ batteriesshould not be used for “Deep Cycle“ applica-tions.– 12 V Deep Cycle: These batteries are commonlyalso labelled “Deep Cycle“ or “Marine“. Thistype of battery is typically larger than otherbattery types. It delivers less short-term energybut transmit energy longer. These batteries with-stand numerous discharge cycles.– 12 V AGM / Gel: The AGM battery type is typi-cally a good Deep Cycle battery. They providethe best “life“ when recharged before beingdrained more than 50 %. When fully dischargedthey withstand about 300 charging cycles. TheGEL battery type is similar to AGM. The charg-ing voltage is lower than for other lead-acidbatteries. Using the wrong charger for a Gelbattery will result in a reduction in power or ashorter life.– 6 V Regular: Select this mode for conventional6 V batteries.Charge Start button 3 : Use this button to switchbetween the following options– Fast Charge: charges quickly (recommended inlow outdoor temperatures / winter)– Normal Charge: normal charging process (nor-mal speed)– Start: briefly delivers 75 ampere to bridge a weakor drained battery to jump start an engineAttention: This mode can only be exited by unplug-ging the mains plug 9 .Jump startingAlways make all the connectionsas described and in the correct order. The vehicle‘selectronics may otherwise be damaged.Proceed against the specifications at your own riskand responsibility.Attention: This function is not suitable for batteriesbelow 45 Ah. This function could damage batteriesbelow 45 Ah.Diesel vehicles and large-volume engines in part re-quire amperages above 75 A for jump starting.Note: The charger features an analysis programto protect the battery from damage (e.g. sulphationor rapid voltage drops), particularly during jumpstarting. The device will not switch on the jump start-er with severely drained or heavily stressed batteriesto protect the battery. During this process the batteryis already being charged with lower currents (Charg-ing lights up). The display continues to read “0“. Inthis event the jump start function cannot be used. Thiswill protect the battery from damage. You shouldthen first charge the battery. You may also use the“Fast Charge“ or “Normal Charge“ function forthis purpose.Connect the car charger‘s mains cable 9 topower.Connect the red connector clamp 7 to thepositive battery terminal. (The positive terminalis marked with a “+“ symbol and a red mark.)
