3.5 Checking the battery voltage
3.5.1 Leisure area battery
"Touch the sensor for Check leisure area battery voltage.
The voltage of the leisure area battery is displayed:
FAll LEDs light up: Battery charged sufficiently
FYellow and red LEDs light up: Battery partially discharged (below
12.4V)
FOnly red LEDs light up: Battery flat (below 11.5V)
The following table shows the correct interpretation of the voltage of the lei-
sure area battery displayed on the scale.
These values apply to actual operation, not off-load voltage.

YATTENTION!
Total discharge results in damage to the leisure area battery:
FA low battery charge, indicated by low voltage, must be prevented.
FSwitch off some consumers in the event of overloaded power supply.
FPrior to taking the vehicle out of service, ensure that no inactive con-
sumers are still connected.
Measuring the off-load voltage is a simple and effective method of checking
the condition of the battery. Off-load voltage is the voltage of the charged
battery in a passive state, with no current being supplied or drawn.
Take the measurement several hours after the last charging. In the mean-
time, no significant load should be placed on the battery, meaning no current
should be drawn from it. There is a risk of total discharge if the off-load vol-
tage of the battery is 12.2V or lower.
