Jump starting instructions

WARNING
• Never attempt to jump-start your
vehicle if the battery appears to be
frozen. Batteries in this condition
may explode.
• When making jump lead connec-
tions, check that your hands and
the jump leads remain clear from
pulleys, belts or fans.
• Batteries
produce
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
81A057
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working near the battery.
• If the booster battery you use for
jump-starting is installed in another
vehicle, check that the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your battery discharges repeat-
edly, for no apparent reason, have
your
vehicle
inspected
authorised Maruti Suzuki work-
shop.
• To avoid harm to yourself or dam-
age to your vehicle or battery, fol-
low the jump-starting instructions
below.
If you are in doubt, call for qualified
road service.
NOTICE
Your vehicle should not be started by
pushing or towing. This starting
method could result in permanent
damage to the catalytic converter.
Use jump leads to start a vehicle with
a weak or flat battery.
When Jump Starting Your Vehicle,
Use the Following Procedure:
1) Use only a 12-volt battery to jump start
flammable
your vehicle. Position the good 12-volt
battery close to your vehicle so that the
jump leads will reach both batteries.
When using a battery installed on
another vehicle, DO NOT LET THE
VEHICLES TOUCH. Set the parking
brakes fully on both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except
those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).
