Battery: troubleshooting
starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from
another vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you
already have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
the two batteries must have an
identical nominal voltage of 12 volts.
The battery supplying the current
should have a capacity (amp-hours,
Ah) which is at least the same as that
of the discharged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supplying
the current and run it at an intermediate
engine speed.
(2/2)
Connect the positive cable (+) A to the
(+) terminal 1 of the discharged battery,
then to the (+) terminal 2 of the battery
supplying the current.
Connect the negative cable (–) B to the
(–) 3 terminal of the battery supplying
the current and then to the (–) 4 terminal
of the discharged battery.
Start the engine as normal. As soon as
it starts, disconnect cables A and B in
reverse order (4-3-2-1).
Check that there is no con-
tact between leads A and B
and that the positive lead A
is not touching any metal
parts on the vehicle supplying the
current.
Risk of serious injury and/or damage
to the vehicle.
