The battery (s)

Depending on the vehicle equipment can be only one battery (under the left front seat) or two batteries. The second battery housed in the luggage compartment.

Prevent battery discharge

Under a heavy load on the battery control unit onboard automatically prevents battery discharge:

- Increases the speed at idle to increase the current of the generator;

- If this is not enough, then those consumers current, which provide comfort (eg, electrical heating) are limited to current or even turned off to prevent battery discharge.

If you are having trouble starting the engine due to a discharged battery, it points to its failure. In this case, we recommend that you check the battery in the service enterprise a Volkswagen, and when you need to charge it or replace it.

Despite the automatic control of the onboard battery can be discharged, for example, when the engine off for a long time the ignition is on or during long car parking with the parking or parking light.

Battery Replacement

The batteries are designed specifically for a particular installation, and equipped with devices that ensure the safety of their use.
