trafficlights, it is only necessary to apply the brakes. It is not
necessary to move selector lever to “N N

can be connected to the battery of another vehicle to start the
engine. The following points should be noted:
• Both batteries must be of the 12 Volt variety and the capacity
(Ah) of the booster battery must be approximately the same as that
of the flat battery.• The jumper cables must be heavy enough to carry the load. Note
cable manufacturer’s data.
• Only use jumper cables with insulated clips.
• There must be no contact between the vehicles, otherwise
current can flow as soon as the plus terminals are connected.
• The flat battery must be properly connected to the electrical
system.
• The engine of the boosting vehicle must be running.
• Ensure that the insulated clips have enough contact to metal.
This is particularly applicable to clips which are attached to the
engine block.

Before the starting cable can be connected to the (
+ +) terminal on
the battery of the vehicle, the cover of the fuse holder must firstbe
opened
⇒page 216.
1. One end of (+ +) cable (usually red) to the (+
+) terminal of the flat
batteryA.
2. Other end of the red cable to the (+ +) terminal of boosting batteryB.
3. One end of (–
–) cable (usually black) to the (–
–) terminal of
boosting batteryB.
4. Other end of black cable Xto a solid metal part bolted to the
block or to cylinder block itself.
Do not connect the cable to the flat battery minus terminal. The
sparks could ignite the explosive gas flowing out of the battery.
• Start the engine as described in the “Starting engine” section.
• If the engine does not start at once, stop using starter after 10
seconds, wait about half a minute and then try again.
