TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
If the engine will not start because the
battery is flat, jump lleads can be con-
nected to the battery of another vehicle to
start the engine. The following points
should be noted:
•
Both batteries must be of the 12 Volt
variety and the capacity (Ah) of the
booster battery must be approximately
the same as that of the flat battery.
•
The jumper cables must be heavy
enough to carry the load. Note cable man-
ufacturer’s data.
•
Only use jumper cables with insulated
clips.
