Starting assistance
*
NOTE Damage caused by numerous or
extended attempts to start the engine
Numerous or extended attempts to start the
engine may damage the catalytic converter
due to non-combusted fuel.
#
Avoid numerous and extended attempts
to start the engine.
Do not use a rapid charging device to start the
vehicle. If your vehicle's battery is discharged,
the engine can be jump-started from another
vehicle or from a donor battery using jumper
cables. For this purpose, the vehicle has a jump-
start connection point in the engine compart‐
ment.
When jump-starting, observe the following points:
R
The battery is not accessible in all vehicles. If
the other vehicle's battery is not accessible,
starting assistance is to be provided using a
donor battery or a starting assistance device.
R
You may only jump-start the vehicle when the
engine and exhaust system are cold.
R
Do not start the engine if the battery is fro‐
zen. Let the battery thaw first.
R
Starting assistance may only be provided
using batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
R
Only use jumper cables that have a sufficient
cross-section and insulated terminal clamps.
R
If the battery is fully discharged, attach the
donor battery for a few minutes before
attempting to start. This charges the dis‐
charged battery a little.
R
Make sure that the two vehicles do not touch.
Jumper cables and further information regarding
starting assistance can be obtained at any quali‐
fied specialist workshop.
Ensure the following before connecting the
jumper cables:
R
The jumper cables are not damaged.
R
Parts of the terminal clamps which are not
insulated do not come into contact with other
metal parts while the jumper cables are con‐
nected to the battery.
R
The jumper cables do not touch moving parts
when the engine is started and while it is run‐
ning, such as the V-belt pulley or the fan.
