Charging via a 230 V power supply If an external 230 V power supply is connected, the integrated
charger charges the supply and starter battery. A trickle charge
(2 A) supplies the starter battery with power. The charging
current is adjusted to the charge status. Overcharging is not
possible.
To exploit the full capacity of the charger, switch off all electrical
consumers during the charging process.
Using the vehicle's engine for the
charging process
While the vehicle's engine is running, the alternator charges the
supply batteries.
When the vehicle's engine is switched off, a relay automatically
disconnects the supply batteries from each other. This prevents
the electrical consumers that are currently switched on in the
motorhome from discharging the starter battery. Thus, the
starting capacity of the motorhome is maintained.
When using the alternator to charge the battery during the
journey, this is a supplementary process that helps recharging
the battery instead of using an external 230 V power connection.
