6 Starting the battery conditioner

➤ Check that the battery is in good condition.

➤ Check the following:

– The battery housing for damage

– The fluid level in the battery

If necessary refill the battery with distilled water.

– The pole contacts

Clean off any dirt present.

– Check the battery voltage with a voltmeter: It should not be below 9 V

(MBCC100) or 4.5 V (MBCC200).

If the voltage is less than 9 V (12 V batteries) or 4.5 V (6 V batteries) a cell may

be defective. In such a case, the battery is defective and may not be

recharged.

➤ Switch the vehicle ignition off.

➤ Plug the charging plug (fig. 2 1, page 3) of the battery conditioner into the

12/6 Vg socket (e.g the cigarette lighter) or

➤ … connect the adapter cable (fig. 2 2, page 3) to the battery terminals on the

battery (fig. 2 3, page 3):

– Positive terminal of the battery: red cable

– Negative terminal of the battery: black cable

➤ Plug the power cable of the battery conditioner into a 230 V/50 Hz socket.

NOTICE!

Set up the device in a location where it is protected against moisture and

moist air.

Ensure that

• The installation location is well ventilated and

• The mounting surface is flat and sufficiently firm.

NOTE

On some vehicles, the 12/6 V socket only works when the ignition is

switched on.

In this case, connect the battery conditioner direct to the battery.

NOTE

If the red “Incorrect Polarity” LED (fig. 1 5, page 3) glows when con-

necting to the 12/6 Vg socket, you need to connect the device directly

to the battery using the adapter cable (fig. 2 2, page 3).
