JUMP STARTING
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start the engine using an
auxiliary battery with the same capacity or a little higher than the flat
one.
Proceed as follows:
❒Connect positive terminals (+) of the two batteries with a jump
lead;
❒With a second lead, connect the negative terminal (–) of the
auxiliary battery and to an earthing point Eon the engine or the
gearbox of the car to be started;
❒Start the engine;
❒When the engine has been started, remove the leads reversing the
order above.
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do not insist but
contact the nearest Lancia Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the two negative terminals:
sparks could ignite the flammable gas from the battery. If the other
battery is fitted in a vehicle, prevent accidental contacts between the
metal parts of the two vehicles.
Under no circumstances should a battery charger be used to start the engine: it could damage the
electronic systems and in particular the ignition and injection control units.
WARNING
Do not carry out this procedure if you lack experience; if it is not done correctly it
can cause very intense electrical discharges. In addition, the fluid contained in the
battery is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. You are also
advised not to put naked flames or lighted cigarettes near the battery and not to
cause sparks.
