Jack Usage Precautions
To complete the Use and Maintenance Hand-
book to which this supplement is attached,
given below are some instructions on the
proper use of the jack.
WARNING!
When using the crank, make sure it turns
freely without the risk of scraping hands
against the ground.
Even the moving parts of the jack, the
“worm screw” and joints can cause inju-
ries: avoid contact with them. Clean it
thoroughly if dirtied with grease.
CAUTION!
The jack is a tool designed exclusively for
changing a wheel, in case of a puncture or
damage to a tire of the vehicle on which it
is fitted or on vehicles of the same model.
Any other use, e.g. to jack up other vehicle
models or different things, is strictly pro-
hibited. Never use it to carry out mainte-
nance or repairs under the vehicle or to
CAUTION!
change summer/winter wheels and vice
versa. Never go under the raised vehicle. If
any work under the vehicle is necessary,
contact an authorized dealer. Incorrect
placing of the jack can cause the vehicle to
drop: use it only in the positions indicated.
Do not use the jack for loads higher than
that specified on the label. Never start the
engine with vehicle raised. If the vehicle is
raised more than necessary, everything
can become more unstable, with the risk
of the vehicle dropping violently. Therefore
raise the vehicle only as much as neces-
sary for the wheel/spare.
Maintenance
• Make sure grime does not build up on the
“worm screw.”
• Keep the “worm screw” lubricated.
• Never modify the jack.
Conditions Of Non-Use:
• Temperatures below −40°C.
• On sandy or muddy ground.
• On uneven ground.• On steep roads.
• In extreme weather conditions: thunder-
storms, typhoons, hurricanes, blizzards,
storms, etc.
NOTE:
•The jack requires no adjustment.
• The jack cannot be repaired, and in the
event of a fault, it must be replaced by
another genuine one.
• No tool other than its cranking device may
be fitted on the jack.
JUMP STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged battery, it can
be jump started using a set of jumper cables
and a battery in another vehicle, or by using a
portable battery booster pack. Jump starting
can be dangerous if done improperly, so please
follow the procedures in this section carefully.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery
is frozen. It could rupture or explode and
cause personal injury.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
196

WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other
as this could establish a ground connec-
tion and personal injury could result.
Jump Starting Procedure
WARNING!
Failure to follow this jump starting proce-
dure could result in personal injury or
property damage due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in damage to the charging system of
the booster vehicle or the discharged ve-
hicle.
NOTE:
Make sure at all times that unused ends of
jumper cables are not contacting each other
or either vehicle while making connections.Connecting The Jumper Cables
1. Connect the positive(+)end of the jumper
cable to the remote positive(+)post of the
discharged vehicle.
2. Connect the opposite end of the positive
(+)jumper cable to the positive(+)post of
the booster battery.
3. Connect the negative end(-)of the jumper
cable to the negative(-)post of the
booster battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative
(-)jumper cable to a good engine ground
(exposed metal part of the discharged
vehicle’s engine) away from the battery
and the fuel injection system.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the
negative (-) post of the discharged battery.
The resulting electrical spark could cause
the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury. Only use the specific
ground point, do not use any other exposed
metal parts.5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has
the booster battery, let the engine idle a
few minutes, and then start the engine in
the vehicle with the discharged battery.
CAUTION!
Do not run the booster vehicle engine
above 2,000 rpm since it provides no
charging benefit, wastes fuel, and can
damage booster vehicle engine.
6. Once the engine is started, remove the
jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative(-)end of the
jumper cable from the engine ground of
the vehicle with the discharged battery.
2. Disconnect the opposite end of the nega-
tive(-)jumper cable from the negative(-)
post of the booster battery.
3. Disconnect the positive(+)end of the
jumper cable from the positive(+)post of
the booster battery.
