(external or from another vehicle) and jump
leads or a battery booster.
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the back-up battery
has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact with
each other.
Switch off all the electrical consumers on both
vehicles (audio system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are not close
to moving parts of the engine (fan, belts, etc.).

to the negative terminal (-) of back-up battery B
or the booster (or the earth point on the other
vehicle).

cable to earth point C
on the broken down
vehicle.

vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start straight away
, switch

order.
►
Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.

minutes, by driving or with the vehicle stationary
,
so that the battery reaches an adequate state of
charge.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
