Chapter overview
This chapter contains instructions regarding the electrical system of the
vehicle.
The operation of the electrical appliances of the housing body is described in
chapter 9.

Off-load voltage
The off-load voltage is the voltage of the battery in idle condition, i.e. no current
is consumed and the battery is not being charged.
Closed circuit current
Some electrical appliances, such as the clock and the indicator lamps, require
continuous electric current, for this reason they are referred to as inactive
appliances. This closed circuit current flows even if the device has been
switched off.
Total discharge
Total discharge of the battery is imminent, if a battery is completely discharged
by an active appliance and by closed circuit current and the off-load voltage
falls below 12 V.
X
Only allow qualified personnel to work on the electrical system.
X
All electronic devices (e.g. mobile telephones, radios, televisions or DVD
players) which have been retrofitted to the vehicle and are operated
during the journey must have certain features: These are the CE certifi-
cation, the EMC inspection (electromagnetic compatibility) and the
"e"-inspection.
Only in this way can the functional reliability of the vehicle be ensured.
Otherwise the airbag may be triggered or interference to the on-board
electronics may result.
Z
After the vehicle is started, delays to the output or forwarding of electrical
impulses are possible.
The control unit of the basic vehicle does not release the D+ signal until the
engine has reached full performance. In the event of a cold start in winter,
this can take up to 15 seconds.
For this reason, output of warning signals (such as "entrance step
extended") may sometimes be delayed.
The automatic retraction of a SAT antenna can also be delayed.
Z
During a storm, to protect the electrical devices disconnect the 230 V con-
nection and retract the antennae.
Z
The battery must remain idle for a while before measuring. After charging
the last time, or after the last current has been drained by appliances, wait
approximately 2 hours before measuring the off-load voltage.
Z
Total discharge damages the battery.
