Frequent engine starts and stops, combined with the increased energy consumption resulting from using comfort features such as seat heating, navigation systems, and so on, pose complex challenges for start-stop batteries. For this reason, car manufacturers have developed intelligent Battery Energy Management (BEM) systems, which use sensors to monitor the condition of the car battery. These devices help ensure a long service life, despite the heavy workload the battery must endure.
These are vehicles with START & STOP systems, which means a greater number of stops and starts. These vehicles, in turn, have a greater number of accessories and peripherals that consume energy. TV screens or tablets, heated seats, built-in refrigerators, etc. All of this increases consumption significantly. That's why vehicle manufacturers have developed specific energy management systems for combustion vehicles.
These battery management systems ensure that, despite the high energy consumption that may occur on some journeys, the batteries have a very long lifespan and are also effective in performance.
So, when changing an AGM or EFB batteryA vehicle's information must be registered in that system for optimal performance. And this process, while not complex, can sometimes seem unfamiliar. We'll explain it here.
It will depend on the brand of each vehicleBecause each vehicle manufacturer uses its own protocol for battery identification.
For example, there are manufacturers that have a system of self-learningAnd if you don't complete the battery registration process, the management system itself compares the new battery's values with those recorded to correctly assess the battery.
Abarth, Alfa Romeo, BMW, Chevrolet-Daewoo, Citroen, Dacia, Fiat, Honda, Lancia, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Peugeot, Renault, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota and Volvo.
There are other vehicles that necessarily you have to proceed to register the new batteryThis procedure will vary depending on the car brand and battery. But it involves entering a 10-digit alphanumeric code. What's called BEM code.
We are in contact with leading vehicle diagnostic manufacturers to incorporate all of our AGM and EFB batteries into their diagnostic tools.
If we install a high-quality AGM or EFB battery, such as those from FQS Battery, even if we don't enter a BEM code, we won't pose any safety risks. The new battery won't suffer from more severe overloads or wear. And it won't cause any failures in the vehicle's electronic system or other components.
