Operating and charging the ancillary battery
If the van is not connected to the 230V mains supply, the
ancillary battery will supply the electrical system with 12V DC
voltage. Since the battery only has a limited capacity, the elec
-
trical devices should not be operated for a longer period of time
without charging the battery or connecting the camper to the
230 V mains connection. Some electrical devices continuously
use standby current from the ancillary battery. This discharges
the ancillary battery.

quellen:
- the generator when the motor is running
- the CA 360 charger
(only via 230 V power feed)
- if available, via a solar panel*
Battery Sensor
An Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) has been connected to the
battery terminal. It monitors the actual current and the actual
voltage in a highly precise manner.
It is possible to precisely predetermine the operating time of
the battery based on the actual consumption. The IBS ensures
that the battery will be changed in good time and assists in
providing active energy management so that the performance
requirements of the different electrical devices can be coordi
-
nated with the charging of the battery.
