& WARNING (continued)
• Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always
read and heed all WARNINGS ~
page 290, "Engine compart­
ment".
0 Note
• Applying a higher voltage booster battery will cause expensive
damage to sensitive electronic components, such as control units,
relays, radio, etc.
• There must be no electrical contact between the vehicles as other­
w ise current could already start to flow as soon as the positive(+)
terminals are connected.
[ i ] Tips
• The discharged battery must be properly connected to the
vehicle's electrical system. When jump starting or charging the
battery, never connect the negative ground cable to the battery nega­
tive post because the battery manager system must be able to detect
the battery's state of charge. Always connect the negative ground
cable to the negative ground post of the battery manager control
unit. •
