Volvo V60 CROSS COUNTRY Owner's Manual page 599

CAUTION
If the following is not observed, the Start/
Stop function may temporarily stop work-
ing after connection of an external starter
battery or battery charger:
The negative battery terminal of the
•
vehicle's starter battery must never be
used to connect an external starter
battery or battery charger – only the
vehicle's negative charging point
should be used as a grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged
to the extent that the vehicle does not have
normal electrical functions and the engine
must then be jump-started with an external
battery or a battery charger, the Start/Stop
function may remain activated. If the Start/
Stop function shortly thereafter auto-stops
the engine, there is a huge risk that auto-
start of the engine will fail due to insuffi-
cient battery capacity since the battery had
not had time to recharge.
If the vehicle has been jump-started or if
there has not been enough time for the
battery to be charged with a battery
charger, the Start/Stop function should be
temporarily deactivated until the battery
has been recharged by the vehicle. At an
ambient temperature of about +15°C
(about 60°F), the battery must be charged
by the vehicle for at least one hour. At
lower ambient temperatures, the charging
time can increase to 3-4 hours. It is advisa-
ble to charge the battery with an external
battery charger.
