Battery Test

The CGDI BD006 Battery Test function is for 12V lead-acid batteries.

  • Before Testing

Before testing in the vehicle:

  1. Turn off all accessory loads.
  2. Remove the key from the ignition.
  3. Close the doors.
  4. If the vehicle was running, turn on the headlights to discharge the battery’s surface charge.
  5. Let the battery rest for at least 1 minute before testing.
  • Test Procedure
  1. Select BATTERY and press [Enter].
  2. Select the battery type and press [Enter]. Check the battery label for the type.
  3. Select the battery standard and press [Enter]. Check the battery label for the standard.
