DO-IT-YOURSELF
• Only
use
jumper cables
with
insulated
clips.
•
A
flat
battery can freeze
at
-10 degrees
C
and
if
a battery is frozen
it
must be thawed
out before connecting jumper
cables,
other
wise
it
could explode.
• There must
be no
contact between
the
vehicles,
otherwise current
can
flow
as
soon
as
the
plus terminals are connected.
•
The
flat
battery must
be
properly
con
nected
to the
electrical system.
• The engine
of
the boosting vehicle must be running.
•
The
jumper cables must only
be
con
nected as follows:
1. One end
of (+)
cable (usually red)
to the
(+)
terminal
of
the
flat
battery.
2.
Other end
of
the red cable
to the (+)
ter
minal
of
boosting battery.
3.
One end
of (-)
cable (usually black)
to the (-)
terminal
of
boosting battery.
4.
Other
end of
black cable
(X) to a
solid metal part bolted
to
the block
or to
cylinder
block itself.
Do
not
connect the cable
to
the
flat
battery
minus terminal. The sparks could ignite
the
explosive
gas flowing
out of the
battery.
Attention
•
The non-insulated parts of the
cable clips must not touch one
another on any account. Further more the jumper cable attached
to the
battery
positive terminal must not come into contact
with
electrically conductive vehicle parts - Short circuit danger!
•
Route the jumper cables so
that
they cannot come into
con
tact
with
rotating parts in the en gine compartment.
•
Do not stand
with
your face
over the
battery
- danger of acid
burns!
•
Keep sources of ignition (naked flames, burning
ciga
rettes
etc.)
well
away from the
battery
- Explosion danger!
• Start
the
engine
as
described
in the
"Starting engine" section.
•
If
the engine does not start
at
once, stop using starter after
10
seconds, wait about
half
a
minute and then
try
again.
• With engine running, disconnect cables in reverse sequence.
