Q
Regenerating / charging empty
(used, overcharged) batteries
If the charging station is connected to a battery
and the charging process starts it automatically rec-
ognises the battery voltage. It changes to pulse
charging mode if the voltage is in the range of
7.5 V ± 0.5 to 10.5 V ± 0.5 V.
This pulse charging process is continued until the
battery voltage has increased to 10.5 V ± 0.5 V. As
soon as this condition is reached, the charging sta-
tion changes over to the previously selected normal
charging mode.
Now the battery can be charged quickly and safely.
Most empty batteries can be charged and used
again using this procedure.
Q
Protective function of the device
If a unexpected situation should occur, such as short
circuiting, battery voltage below 7.5 V, open circuit
or reversed connection of the output terminals, the
charging station deactivates the electronic system
and immediately switches back to basic position to
avoid damage.
If you do not activate any settings, the system will
remain in STANDBY mode. With the inverse con-
nection of the output clamps the LED display „in-
correct polarity / fault“

lights up additionally.
Q
Overheating protection
If the appliance becomes too hot during charging,
the power output is automatically reduced. This
protects the appliance from damage.
