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.
The cable lug must be placed between the 3Link aluminium plate and the washer, just as
shown in the figure below
For connexions 01, 02 and 08, it is recommended to 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 50mm

. 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. All the loads in the camper (battery chargers, inverters, solar panel regulators,
lights, etc.) must be connected on the pin 2 of the 3Link, the positive terminal of the 3Lion
battery must have only one connection ending on the pin 3 of the 3Link.
Connections 03, 04, 05 and 06 are usually already present within the vehicle. If not present,
it is recommended to use cables with a section greater than or equal to 10mm

and 2.5mm

As soon as the ground cable is connected to the 3Link, the system becomes operational.
Charge completely just after installing the system or after doing any maintenance on
it otherwise the SOC on the display will not be real. When it is fully charged, the
display will show 100% on the battery state of charge (SOC) display.
Close the 3Link cover by threading the two tabs on the back into the appropriate base seats;
tighten the 2 screws supplied into the holes at the front corners of the cover.
When installing 2 3Lion batteries in parallel, use only one 3Link and place the 2 3Lion
batteries in parallel with cables of a cross-action of at least 35mm

and place them as close
to each other as possible. Proceed with the installation as shown below.
