Vehicles with a two-battery system
Starter and equipment batteries
A two-battery system has a starter battery circuit and an equipment battery circuit. A supplementary control unit
monitors both battery circuits. Depending on the situation, the battery circuits are connected to or isolated from the
supplementary control unit via an isolating relay.
Two AGM batteries, whose design and properties are described in AGM batteries, are used as a storage battery.
Important!
These batteries must not under any circumstances be charged with a voltage in excess of 14.8 V. Rapid
programs must not be used either.
Receiving/giving starting assistance via jump start terminal
The engine can be jump-started with an external voltage supply via the jump start terminal on the right side of the
engine compartment.
Note:
The starter battery is isolated from the alternators when the engine hood/bonnet is open.
Giving starting assistance via the jump start terminal is thus limited by the capacity of the starter battery when the
engine hood/bonnet is open.
Charging starter and equipment batteries via jump start terminal
The starter battery is charged as a matter of priority with a charger connected to the jump start terminal. The voltage at
the starter battery is the decisive factor in determining whether the equipment battery is also included in the charging
operation. The supplementary control unit automatically detects a charging operation at a charging voltage at the
starter battery of
≥
13.5 V. The isolating relay is closed and thus the equipment battery is connected in parallel. Both
batteries are now charged.
Prerequisite:
•
Terminal 61 inactive
•
Terminal 15 inactive
If terminal 15 becomes "active" during the charging operation, the isolating relay is opened immediately and again only
the starter battery is charged.
Note:
When the engine hood is open, the isolating relay is also opened in normal operation when the engine is
running.
A special mode can be set by means of diagnosis for workshop/garage operation. The isolating relay is closed
from terminal R in this operating mode. This mode is automatically reset once a distance of 5 km has been
driven.
