Default Leisure battery problems I think

Still trying to work out the mysteries of electricity. I seem to be having problems with the leisure battery and intend to take the van back to the company (think it may still be under warranty) but before I do want to try to understand what is happening and if in fact I have a fault.
On Tuesday after running the van the battery was showing fully charged, checked using the habitat control panel. Today Thursday panel shows the leisure battery just over half charged. I have not used the van and everything was off including the switches at the control panel i.e. pump & lights switch off, power switch off and habitat/van switch to middle position.
Just wondering if even with everything off there can still be a slight discharge from the battery?
I do have a meter but not sure how to check things. The black lead is in COM red lead in VmA. The dial has setting for DCV – ACV – ohm symbol. Any advice on how to run different checks would be much appreciated

Thanks Colin
