Emergency situations
General
This chapter is intended for trained emergency crews and working
pe rsonnel who have the necessary tools and equ ipment to perform
these operations. •
Starting by pushing or towing
(D Note
Vehicles with an automatic transmis sion cannot be started by
push ing or towing . •
Starting with jumper cables
Ju mpe r cabl e: Note the man ufa ct ure r's in for matio n.
If the battery is discharged, another veh icle can provide starting
assistance. For this you require a jumper cable. Both batteries must
h ave t he same vo ltage (V) and a s im ilar capacity (Ah).
Jumper cables
Use
only jumper cables of sufficiently large cross section to safely
car ry the starter current . Refer to the manufactu rer's specifications.
Use only j um per ca bles with
isolated term in al cl am ps and pr operly
marked for distinction :
plus
(+) cable in mo st c ases c olored red
minus( -) cable i n most cas es co lor ed black .
& WARNING
Batteries contain electricity, acid , and gas. Any of the se can cause
very ser ious or fatal injury . Follow the instructions below for safe
handling of your vehicle 's battery .
• Always shield your eyes and avoid leaning over the battery
whenever possible .
• A discharged battery can already freeze at temperatures just
below 32 °F (0 °C l. Never attempt to provide starting assistance on
a frozen or thawed out battery- Danger of explosion and chemical
burns! Replace a battery if it has been frozen.
• Do not allow battery acid to contact eyes or skin. Flush any
contacted area with water immediately .
• Improper use of a booster battery to start a vehicle may cause
an explosion .
• Vehicle batteries generate explosive gases . Keep sparks, flame
and lighted cigarettes away from batteries .
• Do not try to jump start any vehicle with a low acid level in the
battery .
• The voltage of the booster battery must also have a 12 -Volt
rating . The capacity (Ah ) of the booster battery should not be
lower than that of the discharged battery . Use of batteries of
different voltage or substantially different "Ah " rating may cause
an explosion and personal injury .
• Never charge a frozen battery . Gas trapped in the ice may cause
an explosion.
• Never charge or use a battery that has been frozen . The battery
case may have be weakened .
• Use of batter ies of different voltage or substantially different
capacity (Ah) rating may cau se an e xplosion and inju ry . The
c apacity (Ah ) of the booster battery should not be lower than that
of the discharged battery. .,.

& WARN ING (continued )
• Before you check anything in the engine compartment , always
read and heed all WARNINGS=>
page 217, "Engine compa rt m ent" .
0 Note
• Applying a higher voltage booster battery wil l cause expensive
damage to sensitive electronic components, such as contro l units,
relays, rad io, etc.
• There must be no electrical contact between the vehicles as
otherwise current cou ld already star t to flow as soon as th e positive
(+ ) termina ls are connected .
• Improperly connected jumper cab les can cause substantia l
damage to the electrica l system of the vehic le.
[ i ] Tips
• The disc harged battery must be p ro per ly connected to the
ve hicle's elec trica l syste m.•
General information of starting
assistance
Please observe that the p rocedure described below for conn ect in g
jumper cab les is intended to provide a jump start for your vehicle.
M ake s ure th at th e connec ted cla mps have su ffic ien t
me tal contact .
Start assistance differs for vehicles with a 4-cylinder engine and a 6-
cy lind er eng ine:
=> page 289, "Use of jumper cables (4 cyl inder eng ine)"
=> page 290, "Use of jumper cables (6 cylinder engine)"
& WARNING
Improper handling of the jumper cables can lead to an explosion
of the battery and severe injuries. To reduce the risk of injury , note
the following :
• The sections of the terminal clamps that are not insulated
must not tou ch ea ch other . In addition , the cable clamped to the
battery 's positive terminal must not come in contact with electri ­
cally conne cted parts of the vehicle -danger of short cir cuit!
• Route the jumper cable so that it cannot cat ch in any rotating
parts in the engine compartment .
• Do not bend over the batteries -danger of chemical burns!
• The battery cell locking screws must be tightened securely .
• Keep ignition sources (open flame, burning cigarettes, etc .)
away from the batteries -danger of explosion!
• Do not clamp the minus cable to parts of the fuel system or the
brake lines.
0 Note
If you prov id e s ta rt assi sta nce f or others w ith your veh icle, yo u
should not c lamp the mi nus cab le (-) to the negative termina l of the
discharged battery=>
page 289 , fig . 203 © but to a solid metal pa rt
screwed firmly to t he engi ne b lock, or to the engin e block itsel f. In
case of an inadequately vent ilated battery of the vehicle receiving
p owe r, the re is a danger o f expl osio n due to deton ati ng gas! •

Use of jumper cables (4 cylinder
engine)
Make sure to connect the jumper cable clamps in exactly
the order described below!
Fig . 203 Jump­
starting with the
battery of another
vehicle: A -discharged
vehicle battery, B -
booster battery
On vehicles with 4-cylinder engines the battery is located in
the front, in the engine compartment on the driver's side. To
reach the battery terminals, remove the cover=>
page 238.
Preparatory measures
1. Do not jump start a frozen battery!=> & in "Starting
with jumper cables" on
page 287, => & in "General infor­
mat ion of starting assistance" on
page 288. Replace such
a battery!
2. Otherwise apply the hand brake and shift into idle gear if your vehicle has manual transmission, and put the selector lever into P position if your vehicle has auto­matic transmission.
3. For both vehicles switch off all consumers and the igni ­
tion.
Connecting/disconnecting the jumper cable.
4. Connect one end of the red jumper cable to the positive
terminal

in "General information of starting assistance" on
page 288.
5. Connect the other end of the red jumper cable to the
positive terminal
@ of the booster battery ®·
6. Connect one end of the black jumper cable to the nega­ tive terminal
G) of the booster battery ®·
7. Connect the other end of the black jumper cable to the negative terminal
© of the discharged battery@.
8. Route the jumper cables so that they cannot catch in any
rotating parts in the engine compartment.
Starting the engine
9. Start the engine of the vehicle providing assistance and
allow it to run at idle.
10. Now start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged
battery, wait for two to three minutes until the engine
"runs " smoothly.
11. If the engine does not start: Stop trying after 10 seconds
and then try again after about 30 seconds.
12. In the vehicle that has received start assistance, turn on
the heater blower and the rear window heating to elimi­ nate any voltage peaks when disconnecting. Driving
lights must be switched off! ._

"Connecting/d isconnecting the jumper ca ble .". When
doing so, make sure t hat the cable cannot contact
rotating engine parts.
14 . Tur n the heater blower and t he rea r window heating off
again .
The battery is vented to the outside to prevent gases from entering
the vehicle interior.
Make sure that the jumper clamps are well connected with their
metal par ts in full contac t with the battery terminals.
& WARNING
To avoid seri ous pe rson al injur y and d am age to the vehi cle , heed
all warning s and in struct ion s of the jumper cable m anufa ctur er. If
in doubt , call for ro ad se rvic e.
• Jumper cable s mu st be l ong enough so that the vehicle s do not
t ou ch .
• When connecting jumper cable s, make sure that th ey cannot
g et ca ught in any mov ing p arts in the e ngine compa rt m ent .
• Bef ore you che ck anything in the engine com partment , al way s
r ea d and h eed all WARNINGS ~
page 217, "Engine compar tment".
0 Note
Improperly connected jumper cables can damage or destroy the
generator.
• Always conn ect POSITIVE ( +l to POSITIVE( +), and NEGATIVE( -) to
NEGAT IVE( -) terminal.
• Check that all screw plugs on the battery cel ls are screwed in
firm ly. If no t, tigh ten plugs prior to connecting clamp on negative
battery term inal. •
Please no te that the procedure for connecting a jumper cable as
described above applies specifical ly to the case of your vehicle
being jump started. When you are giving a jump start to another
veh ic le , do
not connect the minus(-) cab le to the minus( -) terminal
on the discharged battery ©~
page 289 , fig. 203 . Instead, securely
connect the minus( -) cab le to either a massive metal component
that is firmly bolted to the engine block or to the engine block itself .
I f the battery that is being charged does not vent to the outside,
escap ing battery gas cou ld ignite and explode !•
