The battery must be disconnected for the tests.
Otherwise the battery could be damaged.
Model 374, 375, 405, 414, 437, 601, 602, 611, 667, 668, 669, 670, 930, 932, 933, 934, 940, 942, 943, 944, 949, 950, 952, 953, 954, 956, 957, 958, 963, 964, 967, 970, 972, 974, 975, 976
Always perform the test with the battery installed and connected. Do not connect the battery tester/test equipment (1) to the jump start or charging terminal point; always connect it directly to the battery.
Test prerequisites:
Battery tester/test equipment (1) with software release 2.0
Ignition key not in ignition lock
Rotary light switch in position "0"
Radio Off
Good contact of battery tester/test equipment (1) to battery
All test steps and entries must be conducted painstakingly.
Otherwise the test result will be falsified.
If the message "Surface voltage" is displayed during the test, the battery tester/test equipment (1) has detected that the battery voltage is apparently too high. This increased voltage can be reduced as follows:
Battery installed: Reduce the increased voltage as per the specifications of the battery tester/test equipment (1) (e.g. switch on the driving lights).
Battery removed: Reduce increased voltage as described in the "Reduce increased voltage as per charging process" document.
The test procedure for van/truck is shown in the following as an example.
1 | Connect battery tester (1) to battery. |

12 | Follow the menu selection and select the test standard for the cold cranking amps. |
The test standard (e.g.: "EN", "DIN", "SAE", "IEC", "JIS", "CCA") is printed on behind the specification of the cold cranking amps. If the test standard imprint is not present, select the European standard (EN) for the cold cranking amps. |
13 | Confirm selection with "Enter". |
W54.10-1225-12
14 | Read off cold cranking amps and enter in battery tester/test equipment (1). |
Example: 12 V 100 Ah 760 A Cold cranking amps 760 A |
15 | Confirm input with "Enter". |
The battery test starts after confirmation of the cold cranking amps entry. The test result or a message appears after approx. 15 seconds. Proceed accordingly in the event of a message. |
