TEMPERATURE & SAFETY PROTECTION: 

• 

INTERNAL OVERHEAT PROTECTION: The charger has a built-in overheat and 

an overload electronic circuit. This protects the charger from being damage if 

overheated or overloaded and will automatically decrease the charging current. 

Once the units internal temperature decreases to a safe level, the charger will 

resume normal charging. 

• 

SAFETY TIMER PROTECTION: The charger has safety timers for every stage. If 

the battery voltage doesn’t reach a certain voltage within a certain time, the unit 

will stop charging as it’s highly likely that you’re attempting to charge a severely 

discharged or heavily sulphated battery. If any of the stages time out, the charger 

will immediately stop charging in order to protect the battery. This will be indicated  

with the fault LED flashing. 

• 

REVERSE POLARITY: The charger has reverse polarity protection. If the charger 

output leads are connected reverse polarity, the fault LED will come on and the 

charger will be disabled. 

• 

SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION: The charger will automatically turn off if the output 

leads are short circuited and the fault LED will come on. This prevents the charger 

from being damaged if there is a short circuit across the positive and negative pins of 

the 3 pin connector while the charger is turned on.
