Emergency charge of battery
In case your vehicle is not switched on due
to weak of flat battery, start your vehicle by
one of following methods respectively:
A- connecting battery to battery
(by booster vehicle)
1- Use only a 12 volt battery to jump start
your vehicle, otherwise the wiring system
of the vehicle will be damaged which is not
covered by the Guarantee.
2- When using a battery installed on another
vehicle, DO NOT LET THE VEHICLES

3- Turn off vehicle's electrical equipments
(audio system, heater, etc.). Switch off the
booster vehicle. Make sure both vehicles
are set at freewheel, with handbrake
on, otherwise there may be damages
to electrical equipments which are not
covered by Guarantee.
4- Open the engine door of both vehicles and
identify the place of negative and positive
terminals. If there is not enough light, use
flashlight or similar safety illumination.
5- Prepare one couple jump lead (proper
thickness and free from any damages or
tear). Jump lead is usually made of two
thick red and black cables. Connect one
end of first jump lead to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery and the
other end of it to the positive (+) terminal
of the flat battery.
6- Connect one end of the second jump lead
to the negative (-) terminal of the booster
battery. Connect the other end of it to an
unpainted, heavy metal part (i.e. engine
hook) of the vehicle with the flat battery.

Make sure the connection leads are away
from fuel pipes, brakes and other rotary
parts of the both engines.
7- Start the engine of the vehicle with
the booster battery. Run the engine at
moderate speed.
8- Start the engine of the vehicle with the
flat battery. Wait a few minutes to have
engine run at moderate speed.
9- Remove the jump leads in the exact
reverse order in which you connected
them (see. Fig. 2)
