benefit is less battery heating, a longer battery life and less water loss during charging. If an error is detected due to a pump defect - or due to leaks in the connection to the battery - the status code "Statecode 14" appears on the display. This defect can be indicated as a common error by means of an external signal lamp, for ex- ample.
mm (in.) 464 (18.27) 110 (4.33) External start/ The external start/stop option prevents spark formation at the charging plug if it stop is disconnected during charging. Special contacts inside the charging plug re- gister a disconnection. These contacts are leading in comparison to the main contacts.
