Flashing Error Indicator (red) 4
The flashing light of the red error indicator 4 sig-
nals a different fault of the charger, see section
"Troubleshooting – Causes and Corrective Meas-
ures".
Working Advice
The charger is combined with a voltage transformer 9 which
converts the 12 V on-board voltage into a 290 V voltage.
When doing so, the voltage transformer 9 monitors the bat-
tery voltage in the vehicle. It is designed to switch the charger
on only when the engine is running or at an on-board voltage
> 13 V (+/- 0.3 V). If the engine is switched off or at an on-
board voltage < 13 V (+/- 0.3 V), the charger will switch itself
off automatically after a follow-up time of 3 minutes.
As the charger also draws power from the starter battery
when no battery is being charged (idling), it should be discon-
nected from the power supply when not being used for pro-
longed periods of time.
With continuous or several repetitive charging cycles without
interruption, the charger can warm up. This is not meaningful
and does not indicate a technical defect of the battery charg-
er.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
