Figur 5.1: Overview of the three charging modes and their applications.

• 2 Amp (Slow Charge): Intended for charging small batteries such as those commonly used in garden tractors, snowmobiles, and motorcycles.
• 10 Amp (Fast Charge): Use for charging automotive, marine, and deep-cycle batteries. Not intended for industrial applications.
• 50 Amp (Engine Start): Giver yderligere amps for at starte en motor med et svagt eller afladet batteri. Brug altid i kombination med et batteri.

Brug Charge Rate Selector Switch on the control panel to choose the desired ampslette.

Valg af batteritype

Brug Batteritypekontakt on the control panel to select between SLI (Starting, Lighting, Ignition) and Deep Cycle battery types for optimized charging.

Monitoring Charging Progress

• De Amperemeter will show the current flowing into the battery. As the battery charges, the amperage will gradually decrease.
• The 'Full Charge' LED indicator will illuminate when the battery has reached a full charge. The charger will then automatically switch to a maintenance (float) mode to prevent overcharging.
