As the car is literally not being used or allowed to be used.

How do you go about charging the battery, the manual stated that you have to remove the battery to charge it, or you need a Mercedes approved charger !

Any help appreciated.

Hi.
Just by a trickle charger, leave battery on car, connect charger and it will keep it topped up.

They are intelligent devices, only charge when they detect battery needs it.

This is what I’m lead to believe.

Regards.

Something along this line.
These are quite a good make I think.

Ctek have a good range and will do just what you need. Smart chargers have come a long way.

I have 3 MXS 5.0 and cant get them to pass stage 5 when maintaining my C63 via the jump start points under the hood. Anyone had similar issues? Car is just over a year old and has done this since day 1.
