✓ Recovery: 0.5V low voltage start and 2 phase low voltage recovery and test* (* 1 phase low voltage pulse recovery during CAN-bus mode).

✓Safety: No risk of overload. Totally safe for the vehicle's electronic system. Spark suppression. Safe for long-term battery maintenance. Automatic disconnection when the battery is short-circuited or disconnected. no risk of overcharging.

Special functions of the Optimate 4 Quad Program Battery Maintainer Charger

Automatic current adjustment to suit battery size and condition.

Recovery from voltage levels as low as 0.5V.

24/7 Maintainer: Keeps the battery fully charged and in good condition.

Checks the condition of the batteries ( S.O.H.)

Warns when battery damage is detected

Battery SAVE (recovery) mode: is performed from 0.5 V with continuous monitoring of charge acceptance or cell condition (depleted or inadequate). This prevents unnecessary (and unsafe) charging of a bad battery. Safe to leave connected. Full electronic protection.

safeT°: automatic adjustment of the charging current in the charger according to the ambient temperature. Reduced charging at temperatures below freezing and no charging if the temperature is below -20 °C / -4 °F (may damage lithium batteries).

Ampmatic: the microprocessor adapts the current to the ideal LiFePO4 charging curve according to the size and condition of the battery in order to make charging as complete and fast as possible.

Quad program - select program 2 or 4 to charge via the CAN bus controlled 12V plug from BMW, or program 1 or 3 to charge via the Triumph 12V active (hot) plug, or to charge the battery directly.

The fully automatic multi-stage program completes battery charging safely - Select by battery type and charging requirement, and the Quad OptiMate 4 program will do the rest, with no supervision required!

Frequently asked questions (F.A.Q.):

which program should I select to charge with the DIN connector of my BMW?

You should select Program 2 (Pb-CAN-bus) or Program 4 (LFP-CAN-bus) depending on the battery type of your motorcycle BMW. Program 2 is for a 12V sealed lead-acid battery; your sealed battery may be marked as 12V VRLA, GEL or AGM. Program 4 is for a 12.8V LFP (Li-Ion with LiFePO4 chemistry) battery.

* requires optional cable accessory to connect to the plug.

can I charge my Triumph through the DIN socket?

Yes, IF the plug is "live" (hot) when the motorcycle's ignition is turned off (TIP: recent Triumph Tiger 850/900 and 1200/1250 models have a live plug near the instrument panel). Select program 1 or 3 for direct charging to the battery, as the plug is connected directly to the battery.

how do I select the correct program?

Disconnect the OptiMate 4 from the battery or the vehicle. Press and release the button switch. The mode selection changes when the button is released. Continue pressing and releasing until the desired program has been selected. If no further selection is made for at least 3 seconds, the SAVE (#3), CHARGE (#4), OPTIMIZE (#5) and TEST (#6, 7, 8) LEDs blink twice to confirm that the selection is in memory.

what type and size of batteries does the Quad Optimte 4 program charge and at what veolicity does the Optimate 4 recharge the batteries?

12V STD, AGM and GEL lead-acid batteries, and 12.8V/13.2V LFP (LiFePO4) lithium batteries used for engine starting and deep cycling; lead-acid batteries between 4Ah and 60Ah: 24x7 battery maintenance; lithium batteries between 2Ah and 15Ah: 24x7 battery maintenance

Charging time of a depleted, but undamaged battery: a 12Ah battery should not take more than about 12 hours to reach the self-discharge check. Excessively discharged batteries may take much longer. Charging may not be completed within the safe limit of charging hours. In this case.
