parts in the engine compartment.
Starting the engine
... Start
the engine of the vehicle with the boost­
ing battery and let it run at idling speed.
... Now start the engine of the vehicle with the
discharged battery.
... If the engine fails to start: do not operate the
starter for longer than 10 seconds. Wait for
about 30 seconds and try again .
... Switch on the blower and the rear window heat­
ing on the vehicle which has been jump-started
in order to offset excessive voltage which may
occur when disconnecting the leads. The head­
lights must be switched off!
... When
the engines are running, disconnect the
leads in exactly the opposite sequence to that
described on ¢page 277, Connecting and dis­
connecting the jump Leads. Make sure that the
leads cannot come into contact with any mov­
ing parts in the engine compartment.
... Close the cap on the positive terminal.
... Switch off the blower and the rear window
heating again.
A WARNING
- The non-insulated parts of the battery
clamps must not be allowed to touch. The
jump lead attached to the positive battery
terminal must not touch metal parts of the
vehicle: this can cause short circuits.
- Do not lean over batteries -risk of chemical
burns!
- The screw plugs on the battery cells must be
screwed in firmly.
- Keep sparks, flame and lit cigarettes away
from vehicle batteries: the gases given off
can cause an explosion.
- If jump-starting another vehicle, position
the jump leads in such a way that they can­
not come into contact with any moving
278 parts
in the engine compartment of the oth­
er vehicle .
CD CAUTION
Please note that the above method of con­
necting the leads is intended for jump-start­
ing your vehicle. If jump-starting another ve­
hicle, you should not connect the negative
Lead(-) to the negative terminal of the dis­
charged vehicle battery, but directly to the
engine block or a solid metal part bolted to
the engine block. If the battery of the other
vehicle does not have a gas vent, there is a
risk that a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen
gas can accumulate and cause an explosion.
@ Note
- The vehicle battery is vented to the outside
to prevent gases entering the vehicle's inte­
rior.
- Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the bat­
tery terminals.
Tow-starting / towing
away
General notes
Some experience is required to tow or tow-start a
vehicle, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the technique re­
quired for towing. Inexperienced drivers should
not attempt to tow-start or tow away another ve­
hicle.
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and
take care to avoid jerking the tow-rope. When
towing off-road, there is always a risk that the
anchorage points may be overloaded.
Tow-bar I tow-rope
It is easier and safer to tow the vehicle with a
tow-bar. You should only use a tow-rope if you do
not have a tow-bar. It is advisable to use a tow­
rope made of elastic synthetic fibre or similarly
elastic material.
