Emergency Starting
Should the engine not start because the bat-
tery is flat e. g. in winter or after the vehicle
has stood for a long period, the battery from
another vehicle can be used with the aid of
an auxiliary battery cable. The following
points should be observed:
1. Both batteries must be 12 volt. The cap-
acity (Ah) of the battery supplying current
should not be significantly below that of
the discharged battery.
2. Only battery cables with adequate dia-
meters should be used. Observe manu-
facturers specifications.
3. A discharged battery can freeze at -10°C.
A frozen battery must be thawed out
before connecting the battery cables.
4. There should be no contact between the
two vehicles otherwise current may flow
when the positive pole is connected.
5. The discharged battery must be correctly
connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem.
6. Run the engine of the vehicle supplying
the current.
7. Connect the auxiliary battery leads in the
following order:
First fix one end of the (+) lead to the (+)
clamp on the right at the front of the en-
gine compartment (arrowed). Then con-
nect the other end of the lead to the (+)
terminal of the feed battery.
Now clamp one end of the (-) lead to the
(-) terminal of the feed battery, then at-
tach the other end to the cylinder block
or the transverse strut in the engine com-
partment (arrowed).
Care should be taken that the cables do
not make contact with each other and that
the positive cable does not come into
contact with other electrical terminals -
danger of short circuit!
8. Start engine as described in the section
"Starting the engine".
9. When the engine is running disconnect
the cables in the reverse order.
