6 SAFETY WARNINGS AND CONDITIONS OF WARANTY
6.1 PRECAUTIONS (WARNING) – PROVISIONS RELATING TO SAFETY
Material class I according to NF EN 60335-2-29 : 12-2024 standards.
The requirements for installation are contained in the NFC 15-100 standards and in the specific standard “for
small crafts – electrical systems– Alternating and direct current installations” ISO13297 reference.
The installation must be carried out by an electrician or a professional installer.
It is essential not to install, repair, start any maintenance or cleaning on this device under voltage. All energy
sources must be turned off. The batteries must be isolated by the battery disconnect switches according to
the standard. Chargers, alternators, or other energy-generating devices must be turned off, or isolated.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental

Main precaution
Before handling the charger, please read carefully this manual.
Precautions regarding electric shocks
Risk of electric shock and danger of death: it’s strictly forbidden to open the charger under voltage.
Precautions regarding accidental earth leaks
The charger's Protection Earth Terminal (PE) must be earthed and connected before any other
terminal.
Accidental leakage current between phase and earth:
standard NFC15-100 should be followed when installing.
The charger has to be connected to a 30mA differential Ground Fault Circuit following standard NFC15-100
recommendation.
Accidental leakage current between the charge circuit and the earth:
accidental current leakage at the earth must be detected by means of an independent protective device
outside the charger (a residual current device or an insulation detector).
The installer should decide on the rating and nature of the protection according to the risks.
Special precautions should be taken on any installation prone to electrolyze phenomena. Electrical standard
requires a battery switch as close as possible to the batteries.
Precautions regarding lightning
In highly exposed geographical areas, it may be useful to install a lightning arrester upstream of the
charger to prevent irreversible damage.
Precautions regarding overheating of the appliance
The equipment is designed to be mounted on a vertical wall as described in this manual.
