PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
NEVER
start the vehicle by means of a fast/boost-charging device. The
high voltage levels may cause damage to the electronic components. Best
method is to remove the batteries for charging and refit when fully charged.
Always observe battery safety.
Preparing the vehicles
1. Remove any personal jewellery that may come in contact with the
battery terminals.
2. Select a jumper cable that is long enough to attach to both vehicles
in a way that ensures neither vehicle touches each other.
3. Position the two vehicles together, but do not allow them to touch.
4. Turn OFF all lights, heater, radio and any other accessory on both
vehicles.
5. Set the parking brakes: pull out the Yellow button located on the
dash.
6. Shift the transmission into park position or neutral for manual
transmissions.
7. If either vehicle is equipped with a battery isolation switch ensure
they are in the OFF position prior to connecting the two vehicles.
Connect the batteries
1. Attach one end of a jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal of the
discharged battery. This will have a large red + or P on the battery
case, post, or clamp.
2. Attach the other end of the same cable to the positive (+) terminal
of the good battery.
3. Attach the remaining jumper cable FIRST to the negative (-) terminal
(black or N) of the good battery.
4. Attach the other end of the negative cable to a bare metal part not
bolted to the engine block at least 30cm from the battery.
Always connect positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (-) to negative (-).
5. If either vehicle is equipped with a battery isolation switch, ensure
that they are in the ON position.
6. Start the vehicle that has the good battery first. Let it run for 5
minutes.
