Notes on the battery main switch
NOTE Damaged to control units and cooled component parts

When the main battery switch is removed immediately, cooling of important component parts and the storage of parameters in the control units can be interrupted. This can significantly reduce the service life of component parts and control units.

Make sure that vehicle is switched off. Then wait at least 20 minutes before removing the battery main switch.

You can use the battery main switch to disconnect the current to all your vehicle's consumers. This will prevent uncontrolled battery discharge caused by quiescent current consumers.

If your vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary battery in the engine compartment or in the base of the co-driver seat, you must disconnect both batteries. Only then is the electrical system fully disconnected from the power supply.

Only disconnect the vehicle from the power supply using the battery main switch in the following situations:
  • the vehicle is stationary for a long time

  • it is absolutely necessary to disconnect the vehicle from the power supply

After switching on the power supply, you will need to reset the side windows More and the electric sliding door More.

A break in the power supply is entered in the DTCO (digital tachograph) as an event in the fault memory.

See the separate DTCO operating instructions.
