Using Jump Starting With Another Battery - Volvo XC90 2019 Owner's Manual

Using jump starting with another
battery
If the starter battery is discharged then the
car can be started with current from another
battery.
Charging point for jump-starting own car.
IMPORTANT
The car's charging point is only intended
for jump-starting the car itself. The charg-
ing point is not intended for jump-starting
another car. Using the charging point to
jump start another car may cause a fuse to
blow, which means the charging point will
stop working.
When a fuse has blown the message
Battery Fuse failure Service required
shown in the driver display. Volvo recom-
mends that an authorised Volvo workshop is
contacted.
When jump-starting the car, the following
steps are recommended to avoid short circuits
or other damage:
1. Set the car's electrical system in ignition
position 0.
2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage
of 12 V.
3. If the donor battery is installed in another
car - switch off the donor car's engine and
make sure that the two cars do not touch
each other.
4. Connect one of the red jump lead's
clamps to the donor battery's positive ter-
minal (1).
IMPORTANT
Connect the start cable carefully to avoid
short circuits with other components in the
engine compartment.
5. Open the positive jump-starting point's
cover (2).
6. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp
onto the car's positive jump-starting point
