WARNING
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (–) terminal of the dis-
charged battery. This may lead to an
explosion.
WARNING

Do not allow battery electrolyte to
come in contact with eyes, skin,
fabrics or painted surfaces. The
fluid contains acid which can
cause injury and severe damage.
Wear protective apparel. Do not
inhale any battery gases. Keep
children away from batteries. In
case if battery acid comes in con-
tact with the skin, wash it off im-
mediately with water and seek
medical attention.
 During charging and jump-start-
ing, explosive gases can escape
from the battery. There is a risk of
an explosion. Particularly avoid
fire, open flames, creating sparks
and smoking. Ensure there is suf-
ficient ventilation while charging
and jump-starting. Do not lean
over the battery.

Make sure that the positive termi-
nal of a connected battery does
not come into con-tact with vehi-
cle parts. Never place metal ob-
jects or tools on a battery.

It is important that you observe
the described order of the bat-
trey terminals when connecting
and disconnecting a battery. If
you are in doubt, seek assistance
from qualified specialist work-
shop.

Never connect or disconnect the
battery terminals while the en-
gine is running.
