Never use a fast battery-charger to start the
engine as this could damage the electron-
ic systems of your car, particularly the ig-
nition and fuel supply control units.This procedure must be performed by qual-
ified personnel as incorrect actions may
cause high-intensity electrical discharge. Further-
more, battery fluid is poisonous and corrosive: avoid
contact with your skin and eyes. Keep naked flames
away from the battery. No smoking. Do not cause
sparks.
WARNING
If after a few attempts the engine does not start, do not
insist rather contact the nearest Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not directly connect the negative ter-
minals of the two batteries: any sparks may ignite the det-
onating gas which could come out of the battery. If the aux-
iliary battery is installed on another car, prevent any contact
between metal parts of the cars and the flat battery.
BUMP STARTING
Never bump start the engine by pushing, towing or driving
downhill.
This could cause a flow of fuel into the catalytic convert-
er and damage it beyond repair.
IMPORTANT Remember that the servo-brake and elec-
trical power steering system (for versions/markets where
provided) are not operating until the engine is started, a
greater effort will therefore be required to press the brake
pedal or turn the steering wheel. Proceed as follows to start the car:
❒
connect the positive terminals (+ sign close to the ter-
minal) of both batteries using a lead;
❒
with a second lead, connect the negative terminal − of
the auxiliary battery to an earthing point
E
on the en-
gine or the gearbox of the car to be started;
❒
start the engine;
❒
when the engine has been started, follow the sequence
above in reverse order to remove the leads.
