EMERGENCY
Never use a quick battery
charger for emergency
starting: this might damage
the electronic system and
the engine start/supply control units.
This procedure must be
performed by expert
personnel because incorrect actions
may cause electrical discharge of
considerable intensity. Furthermore,
battery fluid is poisonous and
corrosive: avoid contact with your
skin and eyes. Keep naked flames
away from the battery. No smoking.
Do not cause sparks.
