Information regarding recharging the battery or using the battery jump start terminal on vehicles with Start/Stop.

Connect the positive terminal first and then the body ground using a charging cable. This ensures that the Battery Monitoring Control Module -J367- is not bridged. Charging the battery directly on the negative terminal bridges the Battery Monitoring Control Module -J367- and prevents the Battery Monitoring Control Module -J367- from recording the battery data during the charging process. The values stored in the Data Bus On Board Diagnostic Interface -J533- regarding the battery condition no longer match the values for the charged Battery -A-.
