Modi ta' Iċċarġjar:

• Mode 1 (Recommended for Driving): Road-Powered Charging

  Activate this mode during journeys to store power. This allows you to charge your power station while driving, ensuring you have power upon reaching your destination.

  

  • Input Voltage 13.2-14V: Qawwa Massima ta' 300W
  • Input Voltage > 14V: Auto boost to 580W (Fast Charging)
  • Input Voltage <13.2V: Auto Cuts Off (to protect car battery)
• Mode 2 (Emergency Use Only): Emergency Engine-Off Charging

  Use this mode when you need urgent power with the engine off. The FAC580 will instantly power your power station and protect your car's battery while charging.

  

  • Input Voltage 13.2-14V: Qawwa Massima ta' 300W
  • Input Voltage > 14V: Auto boost to 580W (Fast Charging)
  • Input Voltage <13.2V: Auto Cuts Off (to protect car battery)

Vol. Awtomatikutage Aġġustament:

The FAC580 charger automatically adjusts the output power according to the input voltage. Meta l-input voltage is out of the voltage range, it automatically stops charging to protect both the car battery and the power station.

6. Manutenzjoni

• Tindif: Keep the charger clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Ventilazzjoni: Ensure the fan and vents are not obstructed to allow for proper cooling.
• Konnessjonijiet: Iċċekkja perjodikament il-konnessjonijiet tal-kejbil kollha biex tiżgura li huma sikuri u ħielsa mill-korrużjoni.
• Ħażna: Meta ma tkunx qed tużah għal perjodi twal, aħżen il-ċarġer f'post frisk u niexef 'il bogħod mix-xemx diretta u minn temperaturi estremi.

7 Issolvi l-problemi

The FAC580 is equipped with multi-layer protection features to ensure safe operation. If you encounter issues, refer to the following:

• L-ebda Ħruġ ta' Iċċarġjar:
  • Check if the input cable is securely connected to the car battery and the FAC580.
  • Ensure the output cable is properly connected to the power station.
  • Verify the car battery voltage is within the operational range (above 13.2V for charging). If the voltage is too low, the charger will automatically cut off.
  • Check the switch button position.
• Protezzjoni minn temperatura żejda:
  • If the charger becomes excessively hot, it may activate over-temperature protection and stop charging. Ensure proper ventilation and clear any obstructions from the fan and vents. Allow the unit to cool down before resuming operation.
• Kurrent żejjed/vol żejjedtage/Short-circuit Protection:
  • If these protections are triggered, the charger will cease operation to prevent damage. Disconnect all connections, inspect for any faults (e.g., short circuits in cables, incorrect wiring), and reconnect after resolving the issue.
• Taħt il-VoltagProtezzjoni e (UVP):
  • The charger will stop charging if the input voltage drops below 12V (for 12V systems) or 24V (for 24V systems) to protect the car battery from deep discharge. The charger will recover when the voltage rises to 12.5V or 25V respectively.
