starting the vehicle using the 
battery from another vehicle
If  you  have  to  use  the  battery  from  an-
other  vehicle  to  start,  obtain  suitable 
jump  leads  (with  a  large  cross  section) 
from  an  approved  dealer  or,  if  you  al -
ready  have  jump  leads,  ensure  that 
they are in perfect condition.
the two batteries must have an iden-
tical nominal voltage of 12 volts. The 
battery  supplying  the  current  should 
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which 
is  at  least  the  same  as  that  of  the  dis-
charged battery.
Ensure  that  there  is  no  risk  of  contact 
between  the  two  vehicles  (risk  of  short 
circuiting  when  the  positive  terminals 
are connected) and that the discharged 
battery  is  properly  connected.  Switch 
off your vehicle ignition.
Start  the  engine  of  the  vehicle  supply -
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed.
