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.
You can keep this view active by clicking on the "Setting" button and then checking the
following phrase: "

 

Always show V and I

 

".

The engine battery indicator box always shows the voltage value of the battery, and if the
system is being charged by the alternator, the icon of the arrow turns red.
Below is a summary of the icons shown on the display:
