User manual TRONIC KH 3106 ENERGY STATION PC 7

[. . . ] The energy station is charged by turning the main switch at the front to the "CHA" position. While the energy station is charging, the red LED "Empty" will be illuminated. When the battery is nearly charged, the green LED "Full" will start to be faintly illuminated. As soon as it is fully illuminated you can remove the mains charging adapter again. [. . . ] Please consider that with a 10 A load the battery will be exhausted after not more than 45 minutes ­ depending on the charge condition, even much earlier. With a battery capacity of 7 Ah, this corresponds to just under 2 hours of operating time. You can roughly estimate the operating time for your device using this calculation example. Before performing any kind of connection operations, always satisfy yourself that both your device as well as the energy station are switched off that is the main switch in the "OFF" position (centre position). Before connecting your device to the energy station, you must first ensure that "Positive" and "Negative" are not switched. With the supplied cable the device connector is connected so that Positive is on the inside and Negative on the outside, as shown. You can - use this cable if the jack on your device is marked thus: You will first have to recharge the battery if the red LED "Empty" is illuminated. Otherwise the battery will be depleted, usually resulting in a considerable loss of charging capacity. B) Removing the device If you wish to terminate the power supply for your device from the energy station, you should first . In this way you will prevent that current is still flowing while the plug is being pulled. You can now pull the connectors from both the device and the energy station. - not use this cable if the jack on your device is marked thus: On devices with permanently connected cable with motor vehicle connector, "Positive" and "Negative" have the correct polarity. You can now set the main switch to "ON" ­ your device will now be supplied with power A green LED "Full" will be illuminated as soon as the main switch is switched on and sufficient energy is available. A red LED "Empty" will be illuminated as soon as the main switch is switched on ­ but the battery is almost empty. If none of the two LEDs light up after switching on, one of the fuses on the energy station might have blown. Should an LED light up on the energy station after switching on but your device fail to work, you should immediately switch off the energy station. In this case, initially check whether the cable is correctly connected ­ and "Positive" and "Negative" have not been switched. If required, also check the fuse in your device as described in its instructions. These are intended for use of 12V devices requiring a high starting current for switching on, but which do not otherwise consume more than 10 A per hour. Extremely high current flows are possible here that are even capable of heating thick cables red hot!However these high currents are required for the starting of some devices. Not routed by way of a fuse and · Not by way of the main switch. [. . . ] And pull all cable connections between energy station and any connected devices. On no account must the device components be immersed in water or other liquids!This can severely damage the energy station ­ and there is even the danger of electric shock on the mains charging adapter. All surfaces and cables are best cleaned with a slightly moistened washing-up cloth. [. . . ]
