Checking and relling levels
In these conditions a large amount of power
is consumed, but only a small amount is sup-
plied. The situation is also critical if electrical
devices are in use when the engine is not run-
ning. In this case power is consumed when
none is being generated.
In these situations you will be aware that the
power management system is intervening to
control the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power management
will gradually shut o the electrical devices
one by one or reduce the amount of current
they are using. This limits the amount of power
consumed and helps to ensure reliable starting
even after a long period. Some convenience
functions, such as remote vehicle opening,
may not be available under certain circumstan-
ces. These functions will be restored when you
switch on the ignition and start the engine.
With the engine switched o
For example, if you listen to the sound system
with the engine switched o the battery will
run down.
If the energy consumption means there is a
risk that the engine will not start, a text will be
displayed in vehicles with a driver information
system.
This driver indicator tells you that you must
start the engine so that the battery can re-
charge.
When the engine is running
Although the alternator generates electrical
power, the battery can still become discharged
while the vehicle is being driven. This can oc-
cur when a lot of power is being consumed but
only a small amount supplied, especially if the
battery is not fully charged initially.
To restore the necessary energy balance, the
system will then temporarily shut o the elec-
trical devices that are using a lot of power, or
reduce the current they are consuming. Heat-
ing systems in particular use a large amount
of electrical power. If you notice, for instance,
that the seat heating or the rear window heater
is not working, they may have been tempora-
rily switched o or regulated to a lower heat
output. These systems will be available again as
soon as suicient electrical power is available.
You may also notice that the engine runs at
a slightly faster idling speed when necessary.
This is quite normal, and no cause for concern.
The increased idling speed allows the alterna-
tor to meet the greater power requirement and
charge the battery at the same time.
