Compatibility
For correctly designed 12V starter-to-leisure battery charging systems using compatible lithium or lead-acid batteries.
Charging voltage, current limits and battery settings must be configured for the battery manufacturer’s requirements.
Fitment / Wiring Note
Cable size, fuse protection, alternator capacity, battery limits and BMS compatibility must be checked against the complete installation before fitting.
Smart-alternator behaviour can vary between vehicles. Some Euro 6 installations may require the engine-detection settings to be adjusted or an appropriate external engine-running signal to be used.
