Operating Instructions

The SolaMr P15 charger offers various modes and an intelligent 9-stage charging process to optimize battery performance and longevity.

Selecting Charging Modes

Press the 'MODE' button to cycle through the available charging options:

• STD (Standard): For conventional lead-acid batteries.
• LiFePO4: Specifically for Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries.
• AGM/GEL: For Absorbed Glass Mat and Gel batteries.
• Motorcycle: For smaller 12V batteries typically found in motorcycles.
• Repair Mode: Used for restoring and maintaining old, damaged, stratified, and sulfated lead-acid batteries. This mode can take up to 16 hours.

Intelligent Features

• Automatic Temperature Detection: The charger automatically adjusts charging parameters based on ambient temperature. It switches to 'Summer Mode' (reduces charging voltage) if the temperature is above 28°C and 'Winter Mode' (increases charging voltage) if below 10°C.
• 9-Step Intelligent Charging Process: This multi-stage process optimizes battery performance and extends battery life by precisely and gently charging. Stages include battery desulfation, soft start charging, bulk charging, absorption charging, trickle charge, battery testing, charge reconditioning, floating and trickle charging, and small current to maintain charge.

Maintenance

• Keep the charger clean and dry. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
• Store the charger in a cool, dry place when not in use.
• Regularly inspect the cables and clamps for any damage. Replace if necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Charger not turning on: Ensure the AC power cord is securely plugged into a live outlet and the battery clamps are correctly connected to the battery terminals.
• Charging not starting: Verify that the correct charging mode for your battery type has been selected. Check for proper clamp connection.
• Error message on display: Refer to the specific error code in the full product manual (if available) or check for common issues like reverse polarity (the charger has protection for this), short circuit, or an extremely low voltage battery that may require Repair Mode.
• Battery not fully charging: Ensure the battery is not severely damaged or sulfated. Try using the Repair Mode for lead-acid batteries.
