You will have to set the converter to lithium. Open the panel door and look for this switch. Switch from LA to LI.

Open your Victron battery shunt app. change to lithium.

Open your Victron Solar connect app and change to lithium.
It's pretty plug and play. I'm not near my rig so I can't connect and walk you through it right now but I'm sure someone else here can if needed.

Would new lithium batteries need to be charged before installing them with 400i solar flex?

Most likely was shipped with a 30% charge, so should be good.
Suggest getting the change parameters for your specific batteries from the manufacturer. Those will be needed to fully set up your MPPT controller.
There is also a group of us specifically for Keystone Solarflex users.
