(3) Starting with jumper cable
If the battery is weak or terminated, the battery from another vehicle can be used with jumper cables to
start the engine.
Connecting order ▶
The positive (+) terminal of the discharged battery
The positive (+) terminal of the booster battery
The negative (-) terminal of the booster battery
Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the body of the discharged vehicle, such as the engine
block or a front towing hook. 1.

Starting ▶
Prepare a set of jumper cables.
Place another vehicle that has the same 12 V of power near to the discharged vehicle.
Switch off all electrical accessories for the discharged vehicle.
Apply the parking brake and shift the transaxle to the P position (automatic transaxle) or neutral (N)
position (manual transaxle).
Connect the jumper cables.
Try to start the discharged vehicle while accelerating the engine rpm in the booster vehicle.
Attempt to start the engine with the discharged battery.
After starting the engine, carefully disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse sequence of
connection. 1.

If the charge warning lamp ( ) on the instrument cluster comes on while driving, there is a
malfunction in the charge system including the battery. Therefore, carrying out the system check is
needed.
(4) Maintenance
Make sure that the battery cables are firmly connected.
If the terminals are corroded, clean them with a wire brush or sandpapers.
Always disconnect the battery cables with the ignition key removed. When disconnecting the battery
cables with the ignition key turned to ON or ACC position, several electric units can be damaged
due to sudden voltage change.
Check the battery for crack, damage or fluid leaks. Replace it if necessary.
Wipe out the battery fluid on the battery surface using a rubber glove and a clean cloth wetted with
soapy water. -

Alternator
The alternator charges the battery and
supplies power to each electric unit by
converting the mechanical energy to the
electrical energy.
1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1) Overview
The charge system is designed to supply electrical energy to the vehicle while driving, and supplies a
constant direct current voltage by converting mechanical rotational movement to electrical energy.
The voltage regulator on the back of the alternator controls the generated voltage in all rotating ranges
and adjusts the system voltage according to the electric load and ambient temperature change.
2) System Layout (Locations)
Battery
It converts the chemical energy to the
electrical energy and supplies power to the
corresponding electric units when starting the
engine.

2) Charging
The alternator uses a new regulator which has three diodes. It consists of the delta stator, rectifier bridge,
slip ring and brush.
Charging time according to vehicle conditions and environment ▶
Specification: Charging a fully depleted high-
capacity battery takes twice or more as long as
charging a fully depleted battery for small
vehicles.
Temperature: The lower the temperature is, the
longer the time taken to charge the battery.
When connecting the battery charger to the cold
battery, the amount of current the battery can
accept initially is very small. As the battery gets
warmer, it can accept more current.
Charging capacity: Charging a battery with a low-capacity charger takes longer time than charging with
a high-capacity charger.
Charging status: Charging a fully depleted battery takes twice or more as long as charging a half-
depleted battery. Since the electrolyte in a fully depleted battery consists of nearly pure water and
conductor, only a very small amount of current can be accepted by the battery initially. The charging
current increases as the amount of acids in the electrolyte is increased by the charging current.

1. OVERVIEW
The pre-heating system for D20DTR engine has the glow plug to the cylinder head (combustion
chamber), and improves the cold start performance and reduces the emission level.
The pre-heating resistor (air heater) is used to heat the intake air.
This enables the diesel fuel to be ignited in low temperature condition.
The ECU receives the information such as, engine rpm, coolant temperature, engine torque, etc.,
through CAN communication during pre-heating process; and the pre-heating control unit controls the
pre-heating, heating during cranking and post-heating by the PWM control.
