Starter and system battery

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2011 BMW 328xi, 2011 BMW 328i, 2010 BMW 328xi, 2010 BMW 328i, and 2009 BMW 328xi. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

A two-battery system has a starter battery circuit and a system battery circuit. An auxiliary control unit monitors both battery circuits. Depending on the situation, the battery circuits are connected to or isolated from the auxiliary control unit via an cut-off relay.

Two AGM batteries, whose design and properties are described in AGM BATTERIES , are used as a storage battery.

IMPORTANT: These batteries must not under any circumstances be charged with a voltage in excess of 14.8 V. Rapid programs must not be used either.
