Power management and battery exchange

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

For vehicles with automatic engine start-stop function, an AGM battery must be installed and after a battery exchange, it must be registered with the service function < Register battery exchange> so that the automatic engine start-stop function can function properly.

When a battery is exchanged, a battery is disconnected or after the engine control unit is programmed, the reference data for the state of charge and battery condition may be lost. These are only available again after an open-circuit voltage measurement of approx. 6 hours (e.g. rest phase overnight) during which the vehicle may not be woken up. In this training period, the ASSF function is not active (switch-off inhibitor = state of charge not plausible). The customer is to be notified of this when the vehicle is handed over. The automatic engine start-stop function switches back automatically to active as soon as the necessary routines have been completed successfully.
