Measuring the off-load voltage is a simple method to check the condition of
the battery. The off-load voltage is the voltage of the battery in idle condition,
when current is neither supplied nor consumed.
The following table helps to correctly interpret the displayed battery off-load
voltage. The specified values are guide values for dryfill batteries.
LT 100 indicator Off-load voltage values Battery charge
Red LED flashes 11.6 V or less Battery is fully discharged
Red and yellow LED are lit 11.6 V to 12.0 V Battery is discharged to
totally discharged
Red and yellow LED are lit 12 V to 12.3 V Battery is empty or
charged up to approx.
50 %
Red, yellow, and lower
green LED are lit
12.3 V to 13.5 V Battery is charged from
approx. 50 % to fully
charged
All LEDs light up Over 13.5 V
(Only appears while
charging)
 Total discharge causes irreparable damage to the battery.
 When the battery alarm comes on, switch off the appliances and charge
the living area battery, either by mobile operation or by connection to a
230 V power supply.
