PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Do not apply excessive force on the
tab as locking will not be possible if
the clip is not positioned correctly;
start the procedure again.
Starting using another battery
When your vehicle's battery is dis-
charged, the engine can be started
using a slave battery (external or on an-
other vehicle) and jump leads.
Disconnecting the (+) cable
) Raise the locking tab D fully to re-
lease the cable terminal E .
Reconnecting the (+) cable
) Position the open clip E of the cable
on the positive post (+) of the battery.
) Press vertically on the clip E to posi-
tion it correctly on the battery.
) Lock the clip by spreading the position-
ing lug and then lowering the tab D .
First check that the slave battery
has a nominal voltage of 12 V and
a capacity at least equal to that of
the discharged battery.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal
when the engine is running.
) Connect the red cable to the posi-
tive terminal (+) of the fl at battery A ,
then to the positive terminal (+) of
the slave battery B .
) Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative terminal
(-) of the slave battery B (or earth
point on the other vehicle).
) Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C
on the broken down vehicle (or on
the engine mounting).
) Start the vehicle with the good bat-
tery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
) Operate the starter on the broken
down vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start straight
away, switch off the ignition and wait
a few moments before trying again.
) Wait until the engine returns to idle
then disconnect the cables in the re-
verse order.
