Thanks for that. Just found the note in the manual '...should there be an interruption to the power supply, the settings to each key may be lost (instrument illumination level, climate control settings, radio settings etc). Your adjustments will be stored the next time you adjust the feature.'

I always connect a small 12v battery to the leads before I disconnect the ones from the battery, just make sure you have doors shut and nothing on, or the little battery will go flat in a milisecond lol

I usually leave my trickle charger connected to the leads.
