"Low battery" showing on radio display

[IanE]

Hi - just wondered if anyone has experienced this? We were camped up for the weekend and when I turned the radio on, I got this message - and no radio. Our Cali is 2 1/2 years old with 22000 miles. The van started up no problem yesterday and the radio is now working fine. I find it a bit hard to believe that we should be having van battery problems when it's so young?

Cheers

Ian

I have seen this a couple of times (also on my Golf) when the radio has been on 30 mins or so. On both occasions I started the engine, no hesitation or indication that the battery was low. Seems like the radio 310 + DAB might be a bit sensitive to battery voltage.

Oh well - guess I won't fret

Resurrecting an old thread as I had this 'low battery' warning this morning on the screen of my Rcd330dab.

I had done a short journey yesterday and then moved the van ready for loading this morning, so I'm not surprised the voltage was lower than normal.

It started fine. Anyone had this and any sense if it's the sensitivity of the 310dab or a more serious warning that the 7 year old battery is on its way out?
