AccuMate PRO 5

IMPORTANT : Read completely before using the charger.

WARNING! Batteries emit EXPLOSIVE GASES - prevent flame or sparks near batteries and do not smoke.

Protect the charger from dirt and damp. Battery acid is highly corrosive. Wear eye protection and protective

clothing when handling batteries. Distance batteries being charged as far as reasonably possible from the

charger to minimise the highly corrosive effects of acidic battery fumes and fluids. Ventilate the area well.

Do not balance the charger on a vehicle or other irregular surface, place it firmly on a hard flat surface (but

not on textile, plastic or leather) or use the kit provided to fix the charger to a wall, (details on page 8) .

Do not place batteries or any other object on top of the charger. Do not use the charger unless all cables

and connection components are in good condition.

CONNECTIONS : This charger is delivered with five sets of detachable battery connection sets with alli-

gator clips. A number of optional connection accessories are available including an 8 ft 16Awg output exten-

sion lead set. Batteries to be charged should be removed from the vehicle or wiring circuit and placed with

the charger in a well ventilated area. Prevent entry of dirt or damp into the two-pole connectors.

IMPORTANT : It is essential to ensure a good contact between the charger and the battery posts. When you

attach the battery clips to the battery posts wiggle them slightly to ensure a firm and secure contact. Check

that the battery clips are well apart & not in contact with each other or those of neighbouring stations. Always

connect the charger to the batteries to be charged before making the connection to the wall socket (AC

power). Disconnect in reverse order.

FUSES : Each input by a fuse. Should one of these 5 fuses blow, replace it only with an identical type of 2A

250V MT.

The following details apply to each of the 5 charging stations individually

When correct connections are made and the input power is live, the RED Power On LED should light together

with the YELLOW LED if the battery needs some charging. If the battery is completely sulfated (but never-

theless still measures > 2V), or already fully charged the GREEN LED may light immediately. If the RED

"wrong connections" LED lights, disconnect from the wall socket, correct the connections at the battery,

then reconnect at the wall socket. The charger is electronically protected against wrong battery connec-

tions and no damage will result.

The YELLOW LED indicates that either the constant current, bulk charging stage (which ends when the

battery voltage has risen to 14,3V) or the subsequent absorption stage (at a constant voltage of 14,3V), is
