SAFETY This manual serves as a guide for the installation, use and maintenance of the 3Lion + 3Link system. It is compulsory to carefully read all its parts for both the installer and the end user. Keep the device out of the reach of children.
Charge completely right after installing the system or after doing any maintenance on it. When it is fully charged, the display will show 100% on the battery state of charge (SOC) display. . The rated voltage of the 3Lion battery is 12V. Do not use the system with devices that are not compatible with this voltage. The company is not responsible for any damage caused by incorrect use of the entire system.
4. INSTALLATION To properly install the device, follow the instructions below. 4.1 INSTALLATION OF 3 Link The 3Lion-3Link system offers maximum performance if supported by a suitable capacity alternator. It is recommended that the alternator be greater than or equal to 120A with an no-load voltage between 13.8V and 14.7V .

1 2 3 4 For connecting the cables to pins 1, 2 and 3 of the 3Link, it is strongly recommended that you use the terminals for M8 screws (DO NOT use the "fork" type) to ensure a perfect and secure connection between the cable and the contact of the 3link, as in the following figure.
For connexions 01, 02 and 08, it is recommended the use 35mm 2 cross-section cables, if the length of the connexion is less than or equal to 1 meter. If the length of the connexion exceeds 1 meter, it is recommended the use of cables with a cross-section of 50mm2. It is also advisable to install a 200A fuse on cables 01 and 08. Tighten the terminals firmly to screws 1, 2, and 3 of the 3Link , with the supplied nuts and washers. Connections 03, 04, 05 and 06 are usually already present within the vehicle.
NUMBER FUNCTION 1 Touch screen display 2 Hole for passage of communication cable 3 4 Holes for fixing the cover to the wall 4 System to fix the display frame to the cover 1. Remove the display frame. A) Slide the display frame upwards with respect to the back cover B) Lift the lower part of the display frame C) Slide the display frame downwards with respect to the cover and release it. 2. Position the back cover on the wall chosen for installation.
5. Attach the display to the back cover: The 3Link touch screen allows you to interact with the device by easily selecting various functions. To properly use the touch screen, follow the instructions below: Do not exert too much pressure on the surface of the display with your fingers and do not use sharp objects. Doing so may damage the device or cause it to malfunction. Do not put the display in contact with other electrical devices. Electrostatic discharges can cause malfunction.
excluded when it is charging, from the passing of current to the 3Lion. The amount of current that can be charged to the battery is closely related to the type of alternator installed on the vehicle. The higher its power, the greater the amount of current that the 3Link can draw from it. Alternator powers below 120A are not recommended, as the battery's fast charge capacity will not be fully exploited.
Setting the date . Click on the keys until the desired value is reached, taking into account that the first number to the left indicates the day, the central number indicates the month, and the number on the right indicates the last two digits of the year. To confirm your choices, click on the arrow ; to go back, click on the arrow Selecting the time.
Pressing inside the battery symbol, the 3Lion battery indications change shape as shown in the following example. In fact, the voltage and current values for the 3Lion are displayed. The current can take negative values, that is, battery discharging, and positive values, that is, battery charging. In the latter case, the thunderbolt symbol is displayed, overlapping the notches of the battery.
ICON MEANING AND FUNCTIONS Shuts off the screen. If the screen is off, just click on any part of it to turn it back on. It allows you to decrease the value of the parameter in use. It allows you to increase the value of the parameter in use. When displayed, it indicates that the 3Lion battery is charging. If the icon does not become red then charging comes from a source other than the alternator (such as solar panels, network chargers, etc.).
5.1 CHARGE It is recommended to use LiFePo4 lithium battery chargers. However, you can use a mains battery charger for AGM/GEL batteries, checking that the maximum voltage supplied by it does not exceed 14.5V. The charger must NOT perform any desulfation action. The use of battery chargers for flooded lead acid batteries , although they can completely charge 3lion batteries, they can reduce their life.
6. OPERATION CHECK Once the system is installed, you can test its functionality by performing the following tests: 1) With the engine switched off, and with all the equipment powered off, check that the voltage shown on the display relative to the 3Lion battery, is equal to the voltage measured with the tester positioned on the 3lion poles (tolerance of ± 0.15V).
4) The indication of the amount of available charge (SOC) does not seem to be accurate or has suddenly indicated a value of less than 5%. Run a full charge of 3Lion , where full charge means 100% shown on the battery state of charge (SOC) display.
