USER MANUAL
INSTALLATION AND SAFETY WARNINGS
• Installation errors and the misuse of the battery charger can damage the battery charger and harm the operator.
• Only specialised personnel authorised can carry out operations that require the battery charger to be opened.
• If its safe operation cannot be ensured, stop the battery charger and make sure it cannot be not put back into
operation.
• Before operating the battery charger, the insulation of mains connection cables and of the battery connectors must be
verified.
• Disconnect the mains connection before connecting or disconnecting the battery.
• Carefully read all the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer, such as whether to remove the plugs of the
elements during the charge or not.
• CAUTION!! The battery generates explosive gases during the charge. Therefore, in the vicinity of the battery it is
prohibited to smoke and use naked flames and sparks.
• Do not place the battery charger near the battery to be charged; any gas produced/emitted by the battery during the
charge can corrode or damage the battery charger. Place the battery charger as far away as possible from the battery
as permitted by the battery cables.
• CAUTION!!The location of the battery charger must take into account the fact that it contains electric/electronic
components that can produce electric arcs. It must not be exposed to rain, water sprays, humidity and vapours and it
must be stored away from heat sources. Dusty places must be especially avoided.
• DO NOT place or fasten the battery charger on flammable surfaces (such as shelves and/or wooden walls).
• In order to optimise the battery charger's heat exchange, and, therefore, ensure its reliability, it is important to place
it so as to allow heat exchange with the environment. It must be installed in vertical position (using the 4 fastening
holes) and a space of at least 20-30cm (12") must be left in correspondence of the ventilation fans.
• To prevent electrocution risks, the battery charger must be connected to an earthed socket. Moreover, the socket
must be proportionate to the battery charger's power consumption and must be protected by adequate electrical
equipment (fuse or automatic cut-out) set for a current that is at least 10% higher than the absorbed current stated
on the device's serial plate.
• CAUTION!! Prior to the charge, ensure that the device is compatible with the battery's voltage, the charging current is
suited to the battery's capacity and that the selected charging dynamics (for sealed gel batteries, acid lead or AGM
batteries or for other battery technologies) is correct for the type of battery to be charged. Also, ensure that the
battery charger's input voltage indicated on the serial plate is compatible with the power supply voltage and that the
system is earthed.
• CAUTION!! Ensure compatibility of the mains plug provided with the battery charger: Do not use adaptors; should the
socket not be earthed, a suitable plug must be installed by qualified personnel before using the device.
• The charging appliance is maintenance-free, except for routine cleaning that must be performed regularly and
periodically according to the type of work environment. Before starting to clean the appliance, disconnect the power
supply cable from the mains and the connection cables to the battery.
• The outer surface of the battery charger may overheat during operation and remain hot even after it's been switched
off.
• The battery charger must not be used as a critical component in life support devices or systems without express
written consent.
• Failure to comply with the installation and use instructions may compromise the protection provided by the device
and make the guarantee void.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
• The specifications contained in this manual are subject to changes without prior notice. This publication supersedes
and replaces all previous information.
