Towing information

Battery box with extra terminals

Terminals where the starter cables can be
connected are found on the lower side of the
battery box or on the left side behind a cover.
Remove the cover (1) and connect the starter
1
cable to the positive pole (+) first. Then connect
the starter cable to the negative pole (–).
To disconnect, release the negative pole (–) first,
then the positive pole (+) and install the cover.
When the batteries are fully discharged and the
engine is running, it is important that the starter
cables are not immediately disconnected. The
engine must run for at least 2 to 3 minutes before
the starter cables are disconnected to prevent
damage to the electrical system (peak voltage!).
Proceed as follows as soon as the engine starts
running:
- Switch on as many power consumers as
possible (for example: headlights, fog lamps,
heater fan, and so on).
- Remove the starter cables after the engine
has run for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Switch off the consumers.

Dual battery

Connect the starter cable to terminal 30 of the
dual battery relay first. Then connect the starter
cable to the chassis earth (see the sticker on the
battery box).
To disconnect, release the negative pole (–) first,
then the positive pole (+) and install the battery
box cover.
When the batteries are fully discharged and the
engine is running, it is important that the starter
cables are not immediately disconnected. The
engine must run for at least 2 to 3 minutes before
the starter cables are disconnected to prevent
damage to the electrical system (peak voltage!).
Proceed as follows as soon as the engine starts
running:
- Switch on as many power consumers as
