Fault mode
The charger goes to fault mode in the following situations:
• The battery is connected with poles reversed to the charger's terminals.
• The charger's analysis function has interrupted charging.
• The terminals on the charger are short-circuited after charging has started.
• The charger has been in start mode for more than 4 hours.

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION

M200 has a sensor cable placed together with the battery cables. The units will automatically adjust the charging voltage if the
temperature deviates from +25°C. A high temperature lowers the voltage and freezing conditions is handled by higher voltage.
The temperature is best measured on or very close to the battery. Therefore always place the sensor as close to the battery
as possible when charging. The sensor cable could be prolonged or cut to length with the same functionality. Activated
temperature sensor will be indicated by a lit temperature sensor indicator lamp. The charging voltage is then adjusted to the
+25°C condition.

*) Back current drain is the current that the charger drains from the battery if the AC cord is disconnected.
**) The quality of the charging voltage and charging current are very important. High current ripple heats the battery and ages
the positive electrode. High voltage ripple can damage other equipment connected to batteries. The battery chargers from
CTEK produces very high quality voltage and current with low ripple.
***) IP44 cannot be guaranteed if the charger is not positioned horizontally with the long side or top side turned up.

MAINTENANCE

The charger is maintenance-free. The charger must not be opened; doing so will invalidate the warranty. If the power cable is
damaged it must be replaced by CTEK or its authorized representative. The charger casing can be cleaned using a damp cloth
and mild cleaning agent. Remove the plug from the power socket before cleaning.
