SAVING SETTINGS
The battery charger saves the settings made on the control panel. In the event of an accidental power loss or voluntary power off,
when the charger is restarted, it will restart with the latest saved settings, including the Start/Stop status
6.5.
BATTERY ANALYSIS
The analysis stages within the operating modes may terminate with the signalling of various errors:
• Damaged Battery: the Fault LED switches on and the Start/Stop LED switches off and the charger enters Standby mode.
The display shows the message Errxx where xx is the number corresponding to the cause of the error (see table 1). Single 10 second
audible warning.
• Polarity reversal: the Reverse LED switches on and the display shows the message Err07 with a two second audible warning.
• Analysis step in: Charge: the display shows the scrolling message ANALYSIS alternating with the measured voltage or current
value; the LED corresponding to the function continues to flash until the analysis is concluded. If the battery is in good condition, the
LED will be on, otherwise the display shows scrolling message SULPHATED BATTERY and an intermittent audible warning is emitted.
• Analysis step in: Start: in the preliminary analysis function in Start, the LED of this mode will flash until a current absorption
exceeding a minimum threshold is detected, after which the LED remains on and the vehicle engine can be started.

7. OPERATION
7.1.
CHARGING CONNECTIONS
7.1.1.
Charging batteries connected to the vehicle.
7.1.2.
Before starting to charge the battery, make sure the power supply lead is NOT plugged into the mains supply.
7.1.3.
Locate the vehicle's earthing point, which is normally connected to the negative battery terminal.
7.1.4.
Charging a battery with negative earth, grounded to the vehicle's chassis:
• Connect the output lead with red clamp to the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
• Connect the output lead with black clamp to the vehicle's earthing point, keeping it away from the battery and from the fuel pipes etc.
NOTE: If connecting to an older vehicle, it may be positively earthed, in which case the clamps need to be connected in reverse.
7.1.5.
Charging batteries that are not connected to a vehicle.
7.1.6.
Before starting to charge the battery, make sure the power supply lead is NOT plugged into the mains supply.
7.1.7.
Connect the output lead with red clamp to the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
7.1.8.
Connect the output lead with black clamp to the negative terminal (-) of the battery.
ATTENTION: Make sure both clamps of the output leads generate a suitable contact with their corresponding terminals.
7.2.
OPERATING THE BATTERY CHARGER
7.2.1.
Once the output leads are connected to the battery, check that the positive lead is connected correctly to either the 12V or 24V
connector on the charger as required. Then plug the power supply lead of the battery charger into the mains supply, making sure that
the voltage matches the nominal voltage of the battery charger (230V-50Hz); having done this, the charger will emit an acoustic signal
for ½ second and all the LED indicators on the control panel will switch on for 2 seconds, the digital display shows ----.
7.2.2.
The battery charger is configured in Standby mode, for example: ON LED lit, Charge lit, Wet LED lit. The LEDs light up differently
based on the last program saved (see section 6.4. Saving Settings).
At this stage, with the battery charger in Standby mode, set the charging parameters suitable for the type of battery to be charged,
using the buttons on the control panel. The charging parameters selected are displayed by the corresponding LED, which switches on.
7.2.3.
Settable charging parameters:
• Function key:
• Set Capacity key:
- Charge 30Ah/70Ah:
- Charge 80Ah/120Ah: Charge for batteries with capacity from 80Ah to120Ah.

Solution
Position the clamps correctly and start charging the battery
again; (see section: 7.2. Operating the Charger).
The battery could be defective. Contact your nearest battery
service centre.
The battery could be defective. Contact your nearest battery
service centre.
Remove any objects that could be covering the ventilation
area of the battery charger or move it to a cooler area. Wait
for the battery charger to start again automatically.
Set again the voltage corresponding to that of the battery.
Start charging the battery again (see section: 7.2. Operating
the Charger).
The battery could be defective. Contact your nearest battery
service centre.
Set again the voltage corresponding to that of the battery.
Start charging the battery again (see section: 7.2. Operating
the Charger).
Use a battery charger with greater capacity.
Position the clamps correctly and start charging the battery
again
(see section: 7.2. Operating the Charger).
Reduce output current when in manual mode.
