Trickle charging

ATTENTION
When using a charger without charge conservation function, battery damage
may occur after reaching the maximum charge capacity due to overcharge.
NOTE
A trickle charging is required for all batteries that are not used for longer than
2 weeks or are discharged.
Perform trickle charging as follows:
1. Position the charger and the battery in a well ventilated room. Do not connect the
charger to a mains socket yet.
2. Connect charge connector of the charger to the charge socket in the centre con-
sole.
3. Connect mains connector of the charger to a mains socket.

4. Press "Mode" button (1) until the trickle charging icon (5) is lit. The charging indi-
cator (2) must be lit, too. The charging process begins.
NOTE
The CTEK XS 800 charger does not have any buttons.

NOTE
The charger charges the battery to up to 95 % of its charge capacity. Then,
the trickle charging indicator (3) lights up and the charger will automatically
start the charge conservation function.
If the battery voltage drops below 12.9 volts DC, the charger will start the
charging process again.
