If the message BATTERY NOT
CHARGING is displayed there is either a
generator or battery fault. Turn off all
electrical accessories, radio, climate
control etc. Try to use minimum electrical
load as possible such as power windows,
convertible top etc. Seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.
Effects of battery disconnection
After reconnecting the battery:
• Reset the electric parkbrake; see
page 164.
• Reset the electrically operated
windows anti-trap function; see page
87.
• The trip computer will lose all
recorded trip data and all trip
functions will be reset to zero. The
vehicle total odometer reading is
retained.
• If the battery is disconnected for more
than 72 hours the radio preset
channels will need to be reset.
• Reset the clock to the correct time,
see page 142.
• Recalibrate the seat memory
positions; see page 139.
The engine electronic control system
automatically adapts to certain
characteristics of the vehicle. When the
battery is disconnected, these
adaptations are lost.
On reconnection, therefore, some slightly
abnormal drive symptoms may occur and
the vehicle may need to be driven
16 kilometers (10 miles) or more while the
control system re-adapts.
When the vehicle main battery is
disconnected and then reconnected, the
security system immediately returns to
the state that it was when the battery was
disconnected.
Note: Ensure that a remote handset is
available to disarm the system when
reconnecting the battery. Either press the
unlock button on the transmitter, or press
the START/STOP button for
convenience mode.
