Checking and Fill in g
negative cable on the battery must be dis·
connected. If you are just going to replace a
light bulb, then it is enough to switch off
the lights .
- Before disconnecting the battery, switch off
the anti-theft alarm system! Otherwise you
will set off the alarm .
- When disconnecting the battery, first dis­
connect the negative cable and then the
posit ive cab le.
- Before reconnect ing the battery, make sure
all electrical consumers are switched off . Re ­
connect the pos itive cable first and then the
negative cable . Never intercha nge the ca­
bles -th is could star t a fire!
- Never charge a froze n or a thawed-out bat­
te ry.
It co uld explode! If a batte ry has fro­
zen, then it m ust be repl aced. A d isc harged
b at tery can free ze over at 3 2 °F (0 °C).
- Make sure the vent hose is always attached
to the opening on the side of the battery .
- Never use batte ries which are damaged.
T he re is the danger of an explos ion! Always
replace a damaged battery.

CD Note
Veh icles w ith an automatic transmission can­
not be started by push ing or tow ing.
Starting with jumper
cables
If necessary, the engine con be started by con­
necting it to the battery of another vehicle .
If the engine should fail to start because of a d is­
charged or weak battery, the battery can be con­
nected to the battery of
another vehicle, using a
p air o f jump er ca bles to start the engine.
Jump er c able s
Use only jumper cables of sufficiently large cr oss
se ction
to carry the starter current safely. Refer
to the manufacturer's specifications.
Use on ly jumper cables with
insulated term inal
clamps which are d istinctly mar ked:
pl us( +) cabl e in most cases co lored re d

in most cases colored black .
A WARNING
Batteries contain electricity, ac id, and gas.
Any of these can cause very ser ious or fatal in­
jury . Follow the inst ruct ions be low for safe
hand ling of your veh icle's battery.
- Always shield your eyes and avoid leaning
over the battery w henever possible.
- A discharged battery can freeze at tempera­
tures just below 32
°F (0 °C). Before con­
nect ing a jumper cab le, you must thaw the
25 2
frozen battery completely, otherwise it
could explode.
- 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
veh icle 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 al­
so have a 12-volt rating. The capacity (Ah) of
the booster battery should not be lower
than that of the discharged battery. Use of
batter ies of different voltage or substantial­
ly different "Ah" rating may cause an explo­
sion 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 weak­
ened .
- Use of batter ies of different voltage or sub­
stantially d ifferent capacity (Ah) rating may
cause an explosion and injury. The capacity
(Ah) of the booster battery should not be
lowe r than that of the discharged battery.
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed a ll

6. Start the engine in the vehicle giving the
charge and let it run at idle.
7. Start the engine in the vehicle with the dead
battery and wait two to three minutes until it
"runs smoothly" .
8. If the engine does not start: stop the starting
procedure after
10 seconds and then repeat
it after approximately
30 seconds .
9. In the vehicle that is being jump started,
switch the heater fan and rear window de ­
froster on to reduce any voltage peaks that
may occur when disconnecting the jumper ca­
bles. The headlights must be switched off .
10. With the engines running, remove the cables
in
reverse orde r of the way they were instal­
led . Make sure the cables do not get caught
in moving eng ine components .
11. Switch the heater fan and rear w indow de­
froster off .
12 . Close the battery cover .

Emerg enc y s it uat ion s
The battery is vented to the outside so that not
gases enter the passenger compartment. Make
sure that the connected pos itive terminal clamps
on the jump start cable have sufficient contact
with metal.
A WARNING
Follow the warnings and instructions from
the jump start cable manufacturer to reduce
the risk of ser ious injuries and vehicle dam­
age. If you are unsure about anyth ing, call
roadside assistance.
- The jump start cables must be long enough
so that the vehicles do not touch.
-
- Route the jump start cab les so they cannot
get caught in the moving parts in the engine
compartment.
- Always read and follow the warni ngs befo re
c he ck ing anything in t he engine compa rt­
ment
¢page 198.
(D Note
Connecting jump start cables incorrectly can
destroy the alter nator.
- Always connect the positive term inal(+) to
the positive te rm inal(+) and the negative
te rmi nal(-) to the negat ive termina l(-) on
the body ground point, b ut no t the negat ive
te rminal on t he ba ttery.
- M ake sure the screw pl ugs on the batte ry
ce lls are insta lled securely.
If no t, tighten
the plugs before connec ting the clamps to
the negat ive termina l on the battery.
- Please note that the conne ct ing p rocess de­
scribed below for the jump start cables is in ­
tended for when your ve hicle is being jump
started. If you are jump starting another ve­
hicle, do not connect the negative cable to
the negat ive termina l(·) on the drained bat­
tery, but rather connect it to a large metal
component that is bol ted secu rely to the en­
g ine block, o r to the engine bloc k itself. If
the battery in the vehicle being jump start­
ed is no t vente d to the outs ide, there is a
risk of explosion due to hyd rogen gas.
- M ake sure tha t the connected positive ter­
min al cl amps h ave sufficie nt contact with
me tal.

- Do not use the battery negative terminal for
jump starting or a ma lfunction co uld occur
in the vehicle electrica l system.
