IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR MULTI XT 14000 and XT 14000 Please note that the battery pack in the 24 V system in most cases consists of more than one battery. They are linked up to the 24 V system, but the individual batteries generally have a lower voltage. Therefore it is important for the charger to be connected correctly. BATTERY TYPES AND SETTINGS The XS 25000 and XT 14000 are programmed according to “PROGRAM DESCRIPTION” with fixed settings. MULTI XS 2500 and MULTI XT 14000 can easily be

Recond (Lamp 5) (only on MULTI XS 25000 and MULTI XT 14000) This mode is used to recover deeply discharged flooded batteries. Recondition of deep discharged batteries. The voltage increases with reduced current for a limited time period. The higher voltage starts some gassing and mixing of the acid, which is beneficial for both battery capacity and expected life. Note that the battery could emit explosive gas during Recond. Recond is performed between Analysis and Maintenance. INDICATORS La

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION MULTI XS 25000, XS 25000, MULTI XT 14000 and XT 14000 have a sensor cable placed together with the battery cables. The units will automatically adjust the charging voltage if the temperature deviates from +25 C. A high temperature lowers the voltage and freezing conditions is handled by higher voltage. The temperature is best measured on or very close to the battery. Therefore always place the sensor as close to the battery as possible when charging. The sensor cable
