If and when
WARNING (Continued)
● A highly explosive mixture of gases is released when the battery is
being charged. Always keep sparks, flames and lit cigarettes well away
from the battery. Never use a mobile telephone when connecting and re-
moving the jump leads.
● Charge the battery only in well ventilated areas because when the
battery is charged by outside assistance, it creates a mix of highly explo-
sive gases.
● Jump leads should never enter into contact with moving parts in the
engine compartment.
● Never switch the positive and negative poles or connect the jump
leads incorrectly.
● Note the instruction manual provided by the manufacturer of the jump
leads.
CAUTION
To avoid considerable damage to the vehicle electrical system, note the fol-
lowing carefully:
● If the jump leads are incorrectly connected, this could result in a short
circuit.
● The vehicles must not touch each other, otherwise electricity could flow
as soon as the positive terminals are connected.
