The essentials
How to jump start
Jump leads
The jump lead must have a sufficient wire
cross section.
If the engine fails to start because of a dis-
charged battery, the battery can be connec-
ted to the battery of another vehicle to start
the engine.
Both batteries need to have nominal voltage
of 12 V. The
capacity (Ah) of the back-up bat-
tery should not be notably less than the
drained battery.
Jump leads must comply with standard DIN
72553 (see cable manufacturer's instruc-
tions). The wire cross section must be at least
25 mm
2 for petrol engines and at least
35 mm
2
for diesel engines.

Positive cable
– usually red
Negative cable – usually black
WARNING
●
A flat battery can also freeze at tempera-
tures slightly below 0°C (+32°F). Do not at-
tempt to start the vehicle with a frozen bat-
tery. Risk of explosion!
●
Please note the safety warnings referring

● The non-insulated parts of the battery
clamps must not be allowed to touch. Addi-
tionally, the jump lead attached to the pos-
itive battery terminal must not touch metal
parts of the vehicle. Risk of short circuit!
●
Do not connect the negative lead to the
negative terminal of the discharged bat-
tery. In the event of sparks when starting
the engine, the explosive gas given off by
the battery could catch fire.
●
Position the jump leads in such a way
that they cannot come into contact with
any moving parts in the engine compart-
ment.
●
Do not bend over the battery. Risk of acid
burns!
●
The screw plugs on the battery cells must
be screwed in firmly.
●
Keep sources of fire (flames, lit ciga-
rettes, etc.) away from the battery) - Dan-
ger of explosion!
●
Never use the jump leads on batteries in
which the electrolyte level is too low. Risk
of explosion and acid burns.
Note
● The vehicles must not touch each other,
as electricity could flow as soon as the
positive terminals are connected.
●
The discharged battery must be properly
connected to the vehicle electrical system.
● The jump leads should be checked in a
specialist vehicle battery shop.
