Vehicles equipped with the <strong>ComfortClass</strong> System have<br />

battery configurations that are different from traditional<br />

vehicles. These vehicles have a dedicated set of batteries<br />

in addition to the Starter Batteries. These batteries are<br />

referred to as the “<strong>ComfortClass</strong> System Batteries.” These<br />

batteries provide power to the vehicles’ electrical demands<br />

including on-board computers and the starting batteries.<br />

The starter is the only electrical device that does not<br />

depend on the <strong>ComfortClass</strong> System Batteries. The schematic<br />

on page 9 is provided to help illustrate the system.<br />
