Safety
ISK OF EXPLOSION – Only connect the
battery leads when the mains supply is
disconnected
Explosive gases may escape from the battery
during the charging process. Prevent flames and
sparks and provide adequate ventilation during
charging
Indoor use only (except Maintenance
SmartChargers and SmartCharge4)
Disconnect the supply before breaking or making
the connection to the battery
Not suitable for use with non-rechargeable
batteries
In addition to the battery types and capacity
detailed in the specifications, the charger is
suitable for the following only:
• Charging only a single battery at any one time
• Charging rechargeable lead acid, el, A M or
calcium batteries with 6 cells
The Ring SmartCharger automatically adjusts the
charge rate applied as the battery charges. With
the battery fully charged the charging process
stops, as the battery naturally discharges further
charge is applied until the battery is again fully
charged. This is an ongoing process to ensure a
safe connection for an indefinite period.
The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord is
damaged the Smart charger should be scrapped.
The Smart charger is not for use by any person
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or medical capabilities or lack of experience or
knowledge.

Battery Charging - Connection
Charging a battery within the vehicle
1. Ensure the AC power lead is disconnected from
the AC mains supply
Charging a negatively grounded battery
2. Connect the red (+) battery clip to the red (+)
post on the battery
3. Connect the black (-) battery clip to the
vehicle chassis, away from the battery and
fuel line
Charging the battery removed from the vehicle
1. Ensure the AC power lead is disconnected
from the AC mains supply
2. Connect the red (+) battery clip to the red (+)
post on the battery
3. Connect the black (-) battery clip to the black
(-) post on the battery
4. If the red polarity check indicator lights up
check the cables are connected correctly
Battery Charging - Operation
1. Ensure the SmartCharge is connected safely
and correctly to the battery
2. Connect the SmartCharge AC power lead to
the AC power supply
3. RSC501/ RESC501 – ensure the correct
charging voltage is set. To select the correct
voltage press the voltage setting switch, 6v or
12v setting available
4. Normal charging will be shown by the green
‘Charging’ LED indicator being lit
5. When charging is completed the amber
‘Charged’ LED illuminates
6. The SmartCharge can be left safely connected
to the battery for an indefinite period.
7. To disconnect remove the AC plug from the AC
supply. Following this, remove red (+) clip
from battery followed by the black (-) clip

Charging Stages
The Ring Automotive SmartCharger range are all
Multi-Stage battery chargers:
Maintenance SmartCharge and SmartCharge4
models are 3 stage chargers: Stages 3, 4 and 7
SmartCharge8/12/16 are full 7 stage chargers
1. Desulphation – The automatic desulphation
stage pulse charges the battery to breakdown
the build up of lead sulphate crystals. These
crystals occur when a battery has been
discharged or left unused for a period of time.
2. Soft start – A slow steady build up of the
charging process that limits the charging
current applied until the battery voltage is
above 12v
3. Bulk charge – The main part of the charging
process where 80% of the required charge
is applied
4. Absorption – Charged up to full capacity with
a steady decline in charging current to allow
the battery to absorb more power
5. Battery test – The SmartCharge conducts an
automatic discharge test. If further charging is
required the battery recondition function is
automatically selected. If fully charged the
battery goes into the float stage
6. econdition – An additional automatic
charging stage to recover deeply discharged
batteries.
7. Float – The float stage maintains the battery
at 100% charge without overcharging or
damaging the battery, allowing the charger to
be left connected to the battery for an
indefinite period. Ideal for batteries used only
intermittently, such as seasonally used
batteries including motorcycles, caravans,
boats and classic cars

2. Connect the red (+) battery clip to the red (+)
battery terminal
3. Connect the black (-) battery clip to the black
(-) battery terminal
4. Press the ‘LED display switch’ on the front face
of the charger until the ‘Remote battery status
‘LED illuminates
5. The LED display then shows the battery status
0%: <12.2v
20%: >=12.2v
