TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
A = flat battery
B = charged battery
The battery is installed in the engine com-
partment.
If the engine will not start owing to a flat
battery, the battery of another vehicle
may be used with the help of an auxiliary
starting cable. To do so, follow this
process:
•
Both batteries should have a nominal
voltage of 12 V. The capacity (Ah) of the
charged battery must not be much lower
than that of the discharged battery.
•
Only use auxiliary starting cables with a
sufficiently large cross section; consult
the manufacturer’s specification for this
value.
•
Only use auxiliary cables with suitably
insulated connection clips.
•
A flat battery can freeze from –10 °C.
Consequently, before connecting the aux-
iliary cable, the flat battery must first be
thawed, otherwise it could explode.
•
There must not be any contact whatso-
ever between the two vehicles since cur-
rent could flow between them as soon as
the positive terminals of the batteries are
connected.
•
The flat battery must be suitably con-
nected to the terminals of the vehicle’s
electrical system.
•
Start the engine of the car that is sup-
plying the current.
•
The cables must only be connected in
this order:
1. One end of the cable (+) (usually red)
to the terminal (+) of the flat battery.
2. The other end of the red cable to the
terminal (+) of the charged battery.
3. One end of the cable (–) (usually black)
to the terminal (–) of the charged bat-
tery.
4. The other end of the black cable (3) to
a solid part (X) bolted to the engine
block or else directly to the engine
block itself.
Do not connect the cable to the flat bat-
tery’s negative terminal since, in the case
of sparks, the detonant gas could ignite.
