Please follow the on-screen instructions to make the correct selection.
The vehicle may use either a sealed lead-acid battery or an AGM
(Absorbed Glass Mat) battery. Lead acid battery contains liquid sulphuric acid
and can spill when overturned. AGM battery (known as VRLA battery, valve
regulated lead acid) also contains sulphuric acid, but the acid is contained in
glass mats between terminal plates.
It is recommended that the replacement aftermarket battery have the same
specifications, such as capacity and type, as the battery in the vehicle. If the
original battery is replaced with a different type of battery (e.g. a lead-acid
battery is replaced with an AGM battery) or a battery with a different capacity
(mAh), the vehicle may require reprogramming the new battery type in addition
to performing the battery reset. Consult the vehicle manual for additional
vehicle-specific information.
Register Battery Replacement
This option allows displaying the mileage reading of last battery
replacement, registering the battery replacement after replacing a new battery
and informing the power management system that a new battery has been fitted
to the vehicle.
If the battery change is not registered, the power management system will
not function properly, which may not provide the battery with enough charging
power to operate the car and limit the functions of individual electrical
equipment.
Using BMW as an example.
