Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
9 Warning
Never jump start another vehicle
by using the terminals located in
the engine compartment.
This could cause a fuse to
overload in the vehicle.
● Never expose the 12 V vehicle battery to naked flames or
sparks.
● A discharged 12 V vehicle battery
can already freeze at a
temperature of 0 °C. Defrost the
frozen 12 V vehicle battery
before connecting jump leads.
● Wear eye protection and protective clothing when
handling a 12 V vehicle battery.
● Use a booster vehicle battery with the same voltage (12 V). Its
capacity (Ah) must not be much
less than that of the discharged
12 V vehicle battery.
● Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of
at least 16 mm 2
.
● Do not disconnect the discharged
12 V vehicle battery from the
vehicle.
● Switch off all unnecessary electrical consumers.
● Do not lean over the 12 V vehicle
battery during jump starting.
● Do not allow the terminals of one
lead to touch those of the other
lead.
● The vehicles must not come into contact with each other during
the jump starting process.
● Apply the parking brake, shift selector lever into P.
● Open the positive terminal protection cap of both batteries.Battery terminals in the engine
compartment
The battery terminals to jump start the
vehicle are located in the engine
compartment.
The positive battery terminal is
located below a cover. Open the
cover before jump starting the
vehicle.
The negative battery terminal is stud
on a bracket located near the charger
modules.

242Vehicle careJump starting the vehicle
Lead connection order:1. Connect the red lead to the positive terminal of the booster
vehicle battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of
your vehicle.
3. Connect the black lead to the negative terminal of the booster
vehicle battery.
4. Connect the other end of the black

compartment.
To start the vehicle: 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the jump.
2. After 5 minutes, press POWERm
to switch on the vehicle.

initialises, the vehicle will use
power from the high voltage
battery to charge the 12 V vehicle
battery.
3. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear
window) of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
4. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.Towing
Towing the vehicleCaution
Incorrect towing of a disabled
vehicle may cause damage to the
vehicle. The disabled vehicle
should only be towed on a flatbed
car carrier.
Ensure the vehicle is only towed
by well trained technicians.
Wrap a cloth around the tip of a slot
