Battery Charger |
C4
•
Do not connect to the mains input.
•
After 2 seconds, the “Power” LED will light up.
•
“Full” LED will light up if voltage is between 13.3V and 15.5V which means alternator system is OK.
•
If voltage is lower than 13.3V or higher than 15.5V. “Error” LED will light up which means alternator is in bad
condition.
Maintenance
Maintaining the Charge
•
The charger automatically switches to charge holding when the battery is recharged. If the energy is
removed from the battery during the charge holding, the charging current increases accordingly. The
charger can remain connected to a battery without any harmful overcharge.
Incorrect Polarity
•
Disconnect the charger from the mains and correct the connection to the battery.
Diagnostic
•
The diagnostic function is provided to automatically check the status of the battery and recognize the
voltage.
Charging Phases
•
The charger uses a 9-stage charging process designed to optimally charge and maintain batteries. (The
below illustration show the charging phases when charging a 12V deeply discharged battery)
