starter for longer than 10 seconds. Wait for
about 30 seconds and try again.

13.

heating on the vehicle which has been jump-
started in order to offset excessive voltage
which may occur when disconnecting the

leads.
The headlights must be switched off!

<=>
A in Before starting the engine

•=>©
in Before starting the en­

© CAUTION
Do not use the negative battery terminal
when jump-starting (this could cause a
mal­

function in the on-board electrical system).
- Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the bat­
tery terminals.
- The vehicle battery is vented to the outside
to prevent gases entering the vehicle's inte­
rior.

Tow-
start
ing / towing
away
General notes
Some experience is required to tow or tow-start a
vehicle, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the technique re­
quired for towing. Inexperienced drivers should
not attempt to tow-start or tow away another ve­

hicle.

Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and
take care to avoid jerking the tow-rope. When
towing off-road, there is aLways a risk that the
anchorage points may be overloaded.
Tow-bar / tow-rope
It is easier and safer to tow the vehicle with a
tow-bar. You should only use a tow-rope if you do
not have a tow-bar. It is advisable to use a tow-
rope made of elastic synthetic fibre or similarly
elastic material.
Notes on towing vehicles
The vehicle can be towed with a tow-bar or tow-

rope.
When the engine is not running, the
gear­

box will not be adequately lubricated if the
fol­

lowing speed/distance restrictions are not ob­

served:

- The vehicle must not be towed faster than
50 km/h.
- The vehicle must not be towed further than
50 km. •
