Measuring STANDBy / Battery
voltage
After connection to the grid, the appliance is on
STANDBY. The standby display
6 lights up. When
the clamps are connected, the battery voltage is
shown in the LCD (voltage display
9 ). The segments
of the condition display 8 are empty.
If the voltage is below 3.8 V or above
15 V, the battery will not be charged. The
display briefly shows the error message
„Err“. The appliance goes on standby.

V
6 V battery
If the voltage range of the battery is measured as
between 3.7–7.3 V, only programme 1 can be se-
lected.
12 V batteries:
If a battery is recognised in the critical voltage
range of between 7.3–10.5 V, the appliance checks
whether a fully charged 6 V battery, or a discharged
12 V battery is present. After pressing the programme
selection button
10 to select a programme, the ap-
pliance carries out a control measurement for about
90 sec.
The display shows:
--- 88.8
V
If after about 90 sec. between 7.3–7.5 V are detected,
the 12 V battery is defective.
The appliance goes on standby.
Revitalising
If after about 90 sec. between 7.5–10.5 V are de-
tected, a 12 V battery is present.
Charging starts with a pulse charge for revitalising.
The voltage display
9 flashes. Once 10.5 V are
reached, the appliance switches to the other charge
steps.
Revitalising is the same for all the 12 V charge pro-
grammes.
Programme selection
NOTES:
If a battery is detected in the voltage range of be-
tween 3.7–7.3 V, the programmes 2–3–4 can be
selected.
The charging process takes place automatically.
Depending on the selected programme, the char-
acteristic charge curve is monitored for voltage,
time and temperature. Included are the diagnostics
programme, revitalising mode and retention charge.
