Ensure that there is good ventilation from the battery area.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or inrm persons
without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
Batteries are electrically alive at all times and must be treated with extreme
caution. They can supply high short circuit currents, even if they appear
damaged.
Take care that dropping or touching of metal objects onto the battery cell
does not cause short circuits.
Remove any personal metal adornment such as a chain, watch or ring, which
could cause short circuits and personal injury.
Failure to observe these instructions properly may
result in property damage or personal injury, which
may be serious depending on the circumstances.
Refer to the installation section before operating. Correct installation is
the most critical factor in ensuring the safe use of the product. If every
consideration of these instructions has been satised the product will be safe
to operate.
Ensure that cable connections to batteries have the correct polarity and are
protected against accidental short circuit.
Ensure that the shrouding supplied with the battery is tted to the terminals.
Before servicing a battery, disconnect the power supply from the mains
supply.
Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries. Charging a non-rechargeable
battery may result in the battery catching re or possible explosion.
Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the installation area.

Clock Setting on page 9.
Temperature
This displays the ambient or room temperature. The temperature sensor is located in the
bottom left corner of the unit.
Time Remaining
This is the time remaining in the battery if it continues to discharge at the current rate.
› If the remaining time is 2 hours or less, the display shows the remaining time in minutes.
› If the remaining time is greater than 2 hours, the display shows the remaining time in hours.
› If the remaining time is greater than 199 hours, the display shows “>199 HRS”.
› If the battery is charging, the display is blank.
Charge State
This is a multi-segmented bar graph showing the state of charge of the battery. Above the bar
graph is displayed the word “CHARGING” or “DISCHARGING” according to the charging state
of the battery. .
Amps
This shows the charging current into the battery or the discharging current from the battery. To
determine if it is a charging or discharging current it is necessary to refer to the Charge State
indicator to the left of this eld.
Volts
This displays the battery voltage.
Fresh Water Tanks
These indicate the approximate water level in each of the tanks.
If a tank is not installed that tank indicator will always show empty (no level segments will be
shown).
When full, all level segments are shown.
When empty, the bottom level segment ashes and the other segments are not shown.
Note: If the pump switch is off, the water level displays are not updated; they continue to show
