INTRODUCTION

With the INTELLI 3, you have a versatile charging and maintenance device for all types of 
rechargeable 12V lead batteries as well as 12V lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePo) batteries. 
With this appliance, you can:
•  charge a discharged or partly discharged battery
•  maintain the fully charged state of a battery that is not being used over a long time
•  test the charged condition of a battery under partial load
•  restore sulphated and deep-discharged batteries

•  signifi cantly increase the lifetime of a battery with regular use

•   continue to supply the vehicle with power if the battery needs to be removed. 

The settings are thereby retained (e.g. radio PIN code). 

The plain text display, the three LEDs and a buzzer give you complete information at any time 
on the state of the battery and the operational state of the charger.
After completely charging, the INTELLI 3 switches to sleep mode. This saves power and 
money. The integrated timer regularly wakes the device. It tests the battery, recharges it, if 
required, and then returns to sleep mode. It can thereby remain attached to the battery for 
several months.

NOTES

1.  Usage Conformant with intended purpose

 

 

•   The intended use of the charger includes the loading and conservation of charge 

of rechargeable vehicle batteries. Type, voltage, and capacity of the suitable 

batteries can be found in the technical specifi cations.

 

 

•   The device may only be used in compliance with the relevant user manual and 

these instructions.

 

 

•   Any other usage exceeding this will be considered to be non-conformant with the
