touching and that the positive cable A does
not touch any metal component of the
vehicle providing the current. You risk injury
and/or damage to the vehicle.
174)Before opening the bonnet, make
sure that the engine is off and that the
ignition key is in the "S" (Stop) position.
Follow the indications on the plate
underneath the bonnet.

parts.
176)Remove any metal objects (e.g. rings,
watches, bracelets), that might cause an
accidental electrical contact and cause
serious injury.
177)The batteries contain acid that can
burn skin or eyes. Batteries produce
hydrogen, which is easily flammable and
explosive. Therefore, keep away flames or
devices which may cause sparks.

start the engine as this could damage the
electronic systems of your vehicle,
particularly the ignition and engine fuel

IN AN EMERGENCY
Starting the engine that supplies
electrical power and keeping it at
medium speed.
To start, if you use the battery from
another vehicle, you need to have the
right cables (large size) from a Fiat
Dealership or, if you already have them,
make sure they are in perfect condition.
The two batteries have to have nominal
identical voltage: 12 Volt The battery
that supplies the power has to have a
capacity (amperes/hour, Ah) that is at
least identical to the dead battery.
Make sure that there is no contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuit at the moment the positive poles
are in contact) and that the dead
battery is well connected. Disengage
the starter device.Depending on the versions, unhook the
battery guard.
Connect positive cable A fig. 260 to
terminal 1 (+) fig. 260 then to terminal 4
(+) fig. 260 of the battery supplying the
power.
Connect negative cable B fig. 260 to
terminal 3 (-) fig. 260 from the battery
supplying power, then to terminal 2 (-)
fig. 260 of the dead battery.
Start the engine and as soon as it turns
over, disconnect cables A and B in
reverse order (2-3-4-1) .
