2) Charging
The alternator uses a new regulator which has three diodes. It consists of the delta stator, rectifier bridge,
slip ring and brush.
Charging time according to vehicle conditions and environment
Specification: Charging a fully depleted high-
capacity battery takes twice or more as long as
charging a fully depleted battery for small
vehicles.
Temperature: The lower the temperature is, the
longer the time taken to charge the battery.
When connecting the battery charger to the cold
battery, the amount of current the battery can
accept initially is very small. As the battery gets
warmer, it can accept more current.
Charging capacity: Charging a battery with a low-capacity charger takes longer time than charging with
a high-capacity charger.
Charging status: Charging a fully depleted battery takes twice or more as long as charging a half-
depleted battery. Since the electrolyte in a fully depleted battery consists of nearly pure water and
conductor, only a very small amount of current can be accepted by the battery initially. The charging
current increases as the amount of acids in the electrolyte is increased by the charging current.

(13) PTC heater control
A. Overview
The supplementary electrical heater is installed in DI engine equipped vehicle as a basic equipment. The
PTC system is operated according to two temperature values measured at the coolant temperature
sensor and HFM sensor. This device is mounted in the heater air outlet and increase the temperature of
air to the passenger compartment. Because PTC system is heated by electrical power, high capacity
alternator is required. PTC does not operate during engine cranking, while the battery voltage is lower
than 11 V or during preheating process of glow plugs.
