Towing information
Tow starting
It is not possible to tow start an Electric Vehicle.
Towing hook
Tractors may be fitted with a small
towing hook at the rear end of the
chassis. Use this towing hook only for
light shunting work (maximum 10 tons).
6.5 JUMP-STARTING
When the high-voltage battery and the 24V-batteries State of Charge is too low, jump-
starting is possible to start up the high-voltage system.
Jump-starting is possible via the NATO-
connector (1) located at the rear of the
vehicle. The 24V-batteries are placed
underneath a metal housing.
CAUTION: Starting the
vehicle using a starting aid
with too high a voltage can
damage the electrical
components.
– Never jump-start the
vehicle with a fast
charger.
– Never jump-start the
vehicle with a voltage
higher than 29 V.
Jump-starting
The vehicle may be started with the aid of starter cables that use voltage from separate
auxiliary batteries (approximately 24 V) or from another vehicle with a running engine
(approximately 28 V). When this starting procedure is followed, the starter cables
of the vehicle must not be disconnected.
