ARNI NGRisk of explosion due toexplo-
sive mixture of gases
An explosive mixture of gases can escape
from the battery during charging and starting

Fire , naked 0ames, smoking and creating
spar ksmust be avoided. #
Make sure there is adequate ventilation. #

WARNI NG
ARNI NGRisk of explosion from a frozen
battery
A dischar ged battery may freeze at temp era-
tures slightly abo veor below freezing point.
During starting assistance or battery charging,
battery gas can be released. #
Always allow a battery tothaw before
ch arging it or per form ing starting assis-
ta nce. If
th e indicator/warning lamps in the inst rument
cluster do not light up at low temp eratures, it is
ve ry likely that the dischar ged battery has frozen. In
this case you may neither jump-start theve hi-
cle nor charge the batter y.
The service life of a bat tery that has been thawed
may be dramatically shor tened. The starting char-
acteristics may be impaired, especially at low
te mp eratures.
It is recommended that you ha veath awe d battery
ch ecked at a quali/ed specialist workshop.
