Recharge out-of-service batteries once a
month.
Connect the charger.

Check that the charging voltage (24 or
12 V) and charging current (approximately
1/10 of the rated capacity, e.g. 200 Ah
battery with 20 A charging current) are
correct.
Switch off the charger after charging
has finished.

Do not disconnect the connection termin-
als until the gases have stopped escaping
from the battery (wait a few minutes).
