The battery of the Mercedes-Benz R350 is located under the front passenger seat, specifically beneath the co-driver's seat. Below is some knowledge about the battery. Battery working principle: The negative electrode is made of a lead plate filled with sponge-like lead, and the positive electrode is made of a lead plate filled with lead dioxide, with 22-28% dilute sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy. When the battery discharges, metallic lead acts as the negative electrode, undergoing an oxidation reaction and being oxidized to lead sulfate; lead dioxide acts as the positive electrode, undergoing a reduction reaction and being reduced to lead sulfate. Battery maintenance methods: Avoid storing the battery in a discharged state. A discharged state refers to when the battery is not recharged promptly after use. In this state, sulfation is likely to occur, with lead sulfate crystals adhering to the plates, blocking ion channels and resulting in insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery remains idle in a discharged state, the more severe the damage. When the battery is not in use, it should be charged once a month to extend its service life.
