POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
: System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009461625
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
• PDS (POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ) is the system that BCM controls with the operation of the push-
button ignition switch and performs the power distribution to each power circuit. This system is used instead
of the mechanical power supply changing mechanism wi th the operation of the conventional key cylinder.
• The push-button ignition switch can be operated when Intelligent Key is in the following condition.
- Intelligent Key is in the detection area of the inside key antenna.
- Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button ignition switch.
• The push-button ignition switch operation is input to BCM as a signal. BCM changes the power supply posi-
tion according to the status and operates the following relays to supply power to each power circuit.
- Ignition relay-1
- Ignition relay-2
- Accessory relay-1
- Accessory relay-2
- Front blower motor relay
NOTE:
The engine switch operation changes due to the conditions of brake pedal, selector lever and vehicle speed.
• The power supply position can be confirmed with the light ing of the indicators in the push-button ignition
switch.
BATTERY SAVER SYSTEM
When all the following conditions are met for 30 minutes, t he battery saver system will cut off the power supply
to prevent battery discharge.
• The ignition switch is in the ACC or ON position
• All doors are closed
• Selector lever is in the P (park) position
Reset Condition of Battery Saver System
In order to prevent the battery from discharging, the battery saver system will cut off the power supply when all
doors are closed, the selector lever is in P (park) positi on and the ignition switch is left in the ACC or ON posi-
tion for 30 minutes. If any of the following conditions are met the battery saver system is released and the
steering will change automatically to lock position from OFF position.
• Opening any door
• Operating door request switch on door handle
• Operating Intelligent Key

How to Handle BatteryINFOID:0000000009460432
CAUTION:
• If it becomes necessary to start the engine with a booster battery and jumper cables, use a 12-volt
booster battery.
• After connecting battery cables, ensure that they are tightly clamped to battery terminals for good
contact.
• Never add distilled water through the hole used to check specific gravity.
METHODS OF PREVENTING OVER-DISCHARGE
The following precautions must be taken to prevent over-discharging a battery.
• The battery surface (particularly its top) should always be kept
clean and dry.
• The terminal connections should be clean and tight.
• At every routine maintenance, check the electrolyte level. This also applies to batteries designated as “low maintenance” and
“maintenance-free”.
• When the vehicle is not going to be used over a long period of time, disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal. (If
the vehicle has an extended storage switch, turn it off.)

BATTERY DIAGNOSIS WITH EXP-800 NI OR GR8-1200 NI
To diagnose and confirm the condition of the batte ry, use the following special service tools:
• EXP-800 NI Battery and electrical diagnostic analyzer
• GR8-1200 NI Multitasking battery and electrical diagnostic station
NOTE:
Refer to the applicable Instruction Manual for proper battery diagnosis procedures.
BATTERY DIAGNOSIS WITHOUT EXP-800 NI OR GR8-1200 NI
Checking Electrolyte Level
WARNING:
Never allow battery fluid to come in contact with skin, eyes, fabrics, or painted surfaces. After touch-
ing a battery, never touch or rub your eyes until you have thoroughly washed your hands. If acid con-
tacts eyes, skin or clothing, immediately flush wit h water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
Failure to do this may cause personal injury or damage to clothing or the painted surfaces.

• Remove the cell plug using a suitable tool.
• Add distilled water up to the MAX level.
SULFATION
• A battery will be completely discharged if it is left unattended
for a long time and the specifi c gravity will become less than
1.100. This may result in sulfation on the cell plates.
• To determine if a battery has been “sulfated”, note its voltage
and current when charging it. As shown in the figure, less cur-
rent and higher voltage are ob served in the initial stage of
charging sulfated batteries.
• A sulfated battery may sometimes be brought back into ser-
vice by means of a long, slow charge, 12 hours or more, fol-
lowed by a battery capacity test.
Specific Gravity Check
NOTE:
Check the charge condition of the battery.
Periodically check the specific gravity of the electr olyte. Keep a close check on charge condition to prevent
over-discharge.
1. Read hydrometer and thermometer indications at eye level.
2. Use the chart below to correct your hydrometer reading accord- ing to electrolyte temperature.

Charging The Battery
CAUTION:
• Never “quick charge” a fully discharged battery.
• Keep the battery away from open flame while it is being charged.
• When connecting the charger, connect the leads first, then turn on the charger. Never turn on the
charger first, as this may cause a spark.
• If battery electrolyte temperature rises above 55 °C (131 °F), stop charging. Always charge battery at
a temperature below 55 °C (131 °F).
Charging Rates (Standard Charge)
Charging Rates (Quick Charge)
NOTE:
The ammeter reading on your battery charger will automat ically decrease as the battery charges. This indi-
cates that the voltage of the battery is increasing norma lly as the state of charge improves. The charging amps
indicated above refer to initial charge rate.
• If, after charging, the specific gravity of any two ce lls varies more than 0.050, the battery should be replaced.
