Allow thefrozen battery tothaw outbefore charging itor jump-st arting.
! Avoid
repeated andlengthy startingattempt s.Otherwise, thecatalytic convertercould be
damaged bythe non- combusted fuel.
If the indicator/warnin glamps donot light upatlow temperatures, itis very likely thatthedis-
charged batteryhasfrozen .In this case, youmay neither chargethebattery norjump-st artthe

R You may onlyjump-st artthe vehicle whentheengine andexhaust systemarecold.
R Do not start theengine ifthe battery isfrozen .Let the battery thawfirst.
R Only jump-st artfrom batteries witha12 Vvoltage rating.
R Only usejumper cableswhichhaveasufficient cross-sectionandinsulated terminalclamps.
R Ifthe battery isfully discharged, leavethebattery thatisbeing usedtojump-st artconn ected
