General information:
During auxiliary operation, the Battery charger -VAS 5095A- takes over the functions of the dysfunctional Battery -A- in the vehicle, whilst the latter is being replaced. The on board voltage remains unaltered. Electrical components in the vehicle (for example, electric windows) can be used normally.
Further information can be obtained in the → VAS 5095A Instruction manual
Support operations are suitable for the following situations:
t  supporting operations of on board systems without an installed Battery -A-
t  maintenance of voltage in the event a Battery -A-is replaced
t  aggregated testing without a Battery -A-
  Caution
t  When charging, always set the Battery -A- type at 2.4 V/C (Volt/cell). This indication is applicable to all batteries.
t  The charge terminals of the Battery charger -VAS 5095A- must not detach themselves from the poles of the Battery -A- during battery replacement.
–  Turn off the ignition and all electrical components.
–  Set the auxiliary operations/normal operations switch → Fig.-7- to „auxiliary operation“.

–  Turn on the charger → Fig.-1-.
The yellow LEDs → Fig.-3- and -6- light up.
  Note
t  A minimum charge of 0.6 A is necessary (e.g. tail lights). Otherwise, auxiliary operation cannot be activated.
t  During auxiliary operation, the intensity of the current is restricted to 5A.
–  Turn on the tail lights of the vehicle.
–  Replace the Battery -A-.
