Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the engine can be started using a slave battery (external or on another vehicle) and jump lead cables.
Remove the plastic cover from the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B . Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B (or earth point on the other
vehicle).
Connect the other end of the green or black Connect the other end of the green or black Connect the othercable to the earth point C on the broken down vehicle (or on the engine mounting). Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery and leave it running for a few minutes. Operate the starter on the broken down vehicle and let the engine run If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition and wait a few moments before trying again. Wait until the engine returns to idle then disconnect the jump lead cables in the reverse order. Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if your vehicle has one.
Do not try to start the engine by connecting a battery charger. Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when the engine is running.
First check that the slave battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity at least equal to that of the discharged battery.
