  • Page 9: Procedure For Engine Starting

    PROCEDURE FOR ENGINE STARTING NOTE: We recommend that before attempting to boost start, you charge the battery for 10-15 minutes. This will improve the chance of a first time start, particularly with bigger engines. When the battery is completely flat, you must charge the battery for 10-15 minutes before attempting to start, otherwise you may cause damage to the vehicle electronic systems.
