How to Charge the Battery?
• The battery loses power when not in use. This causes the battery voltage to drop. If the battery voltage value drops below 12.40V, it should be charged with a battery charger (Rectifier).
• Battery Charging should be done with a current of 1/20 of the rated capacity of the battery. Battery charging should be terminated when the battery voltage reaches 16.20V.
• During charging of AGM batteries, the battery charger (rectifier) voltage should be fixed at 14.40 V. During charging, 14.40 V should not be exceeded.
• During charging of EFB batteries, the battery charger (rectifier) voltage should be fixed at 15.80 V. During charging, 15.80 V should not be exceeded.
• Since the battery will heat up during charging, the electrolyte temperature should be kept in the range of 25-35 °C.
• After the battery charging process is finished, the battery charger (rectifier) should be turned off first, and then the battery connections should be removed.
•• After the battery charging process is completed, the electrolyte level should be checked for the batteries that require maintenance, and if there is a decrease in the electrolyte level, PURE WATER should be added.
Safety and Environmental Precautions:
Acid-resistant work clothes, plastic gloves, boots and glasses should be used as personal protection while connecting the battery to the charger. • Since there will be explosive gas release during the battery charging process, ambient ventilation should be provided and fire should not be approached.
• Waste (scrap) batteries should never be thrown away, but should be delivered to battery services and dealers.
• Electrolyte (battery water) should never be used in sinks, sewers, etc. should not be spilled.
"
• When connecting the battery, first the positive connection cable and then the negative connection cable must be connected."
• Battery connection should be done carefully. Connection areas (pole heads) should never be left loose.
• The battery must be installed firmly fixed to the vehicle .
