1.2.1 Charging The Battery Using -VAS 5903-
Special tools and workshop equipment required
♦ Battery Charger VAS 5903 -VAS 5903-
Note
♦ Battery charger -VAS 5903- charges without current and volt‐
age peaks. Batteries can therefore also be charged when
installed. When doing this, heed the safety instructions. The
devices provide an assistance mode in which they provide
supply for the circuits.
♦ When working on the electrical system with the electrical con‐
sumers temporarily switched on and for “Guided Fault Find‐
ing“, the battery must be charged with a battery charger in
assistance mode to prevent damage to the battery. Refer to
⇒ “1.2.4 Battery Support Mode With VAS 5903 “, page 6 .
♦ For more information regarding the battery charger, refer to
the Operating Instructions that came with the charger.
Procedure
• The battery temperature must be at least +10 ℃.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to open flame, fire and smoking.
♦ On non-maintenance-free batteries, the sealing plugs
must be installed tightly.
♦ Provide sufficient ventilation.
♦ A highly flammable gas forms when batteries are charged.
Never enter rooms where batteries are being charged car‐
rying an open flame or while smoking.
♦ Follow the battery charger and battery manufacturer safe‐
ty requirements.
♦ Rapid-charging batteries, refer to
⇒ “1.2.3 Rapid Charging The Battery, Vehicles Without
Battery Monitoring Control Module J367 Or Energy Man‐
agement Control Module J644 “, page 5 .
Risk of explosion on discharged battery with visual indicator.
♦ If the visual indicator has no color or is light yellow, the
battery may not be tested or charged. Jump starting must
not be used! There is a risk of explosion during testing,
charging or jump starting. The battery must be replaced.

Caution
Risk of damaging AGM batteries.
♦ AGM batteries must be protected from over voltage.
– Switch off ignition and remove ignition key.
– Turn off all electrical consumers.
– Perform the battery charging prep work. Refer to⇒ Electrical
Equipment; Rep. Gr. 27 ; Description and Operation .
Note
♦ In vehicles without a Battery monitoring control module -J367-
or Energy management control module -J644- , the battery
charger clamps can be connected to the battery terminals or
the positive and ground terminals in the engine compartment.
♦ In vehicles with a Battery monitoring control module -J367- or
Energy management control module -J644- , the black charg‐
er clamp “–“ must not be connected to the battery negative
terminal but to the ground terminal in the engine compartment
or the ground pin of the energy management control module
-J644- .
– After connecting the charging clamps, connect the battery
charger electrical system connector.
– Switch the charger on.
– If necessary, adjust the charge current according to the battery
capacity.
• Current should be 10% of the battery capacity (with a 60 Ah
battery, about 6 Ah).
– When the battery is fully charged, refer to Battery charger op‐
erating instructions, disconnect the battery charger clamps “+“
and “–-“ from the battery.
– Disconnect the battery charger electrical system connector.
1.2.2 Exhaustively Discharged Battery
♦ Batteries that have not been used in driving operation for a
long time, for example in stored vehicles, discharge them‐
selves.
♦ Batteries are considered to be exhaustively discharged if the
no-load voltage drops below 11.6 V. In the case of extended
downtime under 12.2 volts, the battery is prematurely dam‐
aged.
♦ Measure the no-load voltage in vehicles without a Battery
monitoring control module -J367- or Energy management con‐
trol module -J644- . Refer to
⇒ “4.1.2 Measuring No Load Voltage“, page 32 .
♦ Perform a battery test with a Vehicle Diagnosis Tester if the
vehicle has a Battery monitoring control module -J367- or En‐
ergy management control module -J644- . Refer to
⇒ “4.2.2 Battery Test with Vehicle Diagnosis Tester -“,
page 34 .
♦ With exhaustively discharged batteries, the battery acid (mix‐
ture of sulfuric acid and water) is mostly water, with a greatly
reduced sulfuric acid content.

♦ Exhaustively discharged batteries become sulfated, i.e. all the
plate surfaces of such batteries become hardened. Instead of
being transparent, the electrolyte has a slightly milky appear‐
ance.
♦ The sulfating process may be reversed if an exhaustively dis‐
charged battery is recharged immediately.
♦ If battery is not recharged, plates will continue to harden, and
ability to accept a charge will diminish. This results in reduction
of battery performance.
Procedure
• The battery temperature must be at least +10 ℃.
WARNING
Risk of explosion on discharged battery with visual indicator.
♦ If the visual indicator has no color or is light yellow, the
battery may not be tested or charged. Jump starting must
not be used! There is a risk of explosion during testing,
charging or jump starting. The battery must be replaced.
Caution
Risk of exhaustively discharged batteries freezing.
♦ Exhaustively discharged batteries freeze at low tempera‐
tures, the housing can crack.
♦ Batteries that have frozen must no longer be used.
Discharged sulfated batteries must be charged as follows using
a low charging current:
– Adjust the charge current to approximately 5% of the battery
capacity, i.e., the charging current for a 60 Ah battery is then
approximately 3 ampere.
Note
♦ The battery voltage must be at least 0.6 V!
♦ The -VAS 5903- battery charger automatically detects ex‐
haustively discharged batteries and carefully starts the charg‐
ing procedure with a low charging current. The charge current
is automatically adjusted to the battery charge state.
Caution
Risk of damaging exhaustively discharged batteries.
♦ Do not rapid-charge exhaustively discharged batteries.
– Charge the battery. Refer to
⇒ “1.2.1 Charging The Battery Using VAS 5903 “, page 2 .
• The charging voltage may be a maximum of 14.4 V.

1.2.3 Rapid Charging The Battery, Vehicles
Without Battery Monitoring Control Mod‐
ule -J367- Or Energy Management Con‐
trol Module -J644-
Procedure
• The battery temperature must be at least +10 ℃.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to open flame, fire and smoking.
♦ On non-maintenance-free batteries, the sealing plugs
must be installed tightly.
♦ Provide sufficient ventilation.
♦ A highly flammable gas forms when batteries are charged.
Never enter rooms where batteries are being charged car‐
rying an open flame or while smoking.

♦ If the visual indicator has no color or is light yellow, the
battery may not be tested or charged. Jump starting must
not be used! There is a risk of explosion during testing,
charging or jump starting. The battery must be replaced.
Caution
Risk of damaging the battery and vehicle electronic compo‐
nents.
♦ Do not rapid charge AGM batteries.
♦ Do not rapid charge batteries in vehicles with a battery
monitoring control module -J367- or energy management
control module -J644- .
♦ Do not rapid-charge exhaustively discharged batteries.
♦ Rapid-charging of batteries should only be performed in
exceptional circumstances (for example, jump starting)
since rapid charging may cause damage.
♦ Battery must not be connected to vehicle electrical system
when performing rapid charging. Disconnect the positive
and negative cables from the terminals. Refer to⇒ Elec‐
trical system; Rep. Gr. 27 ; Removal and Installation .
♦ The maximum charging voltage is 14.8 volt.
