Batteries and charging
General
The external charger (Fig. 26) has
been designed to charge two
12 volt Sonnenschien Dryfit Gel
type batteries.

Safety features

The chargers have features which
prevent hazards or accidents
occurring as a result of connecting
batteries the wrong way round,
overheating caused by fault
conditions, or attempting to charge
wrong voltage batteries.
The majority of charger sizes are
electrically double insulated and no
earth connection is required. Some
larger sizes may be electrically
earthed and this will be clearly
stated on the label.
The 3 pin UK mains input plug
contains a replaceable fuse. The
rating of this fuse is shown on the
charger label. Always replace with
the same type and size of fuse as
specified. Fitting of different fuses
can result in damage to the charger
or failure of the charger to operate
properly.
If your charger has been specified
for use in Continental Europe it will
contain a European two pin plug
which does not have a fuse. In this
case the fuse is located in the
fascia panel of the charger.
