On some of these positions extra terminals are fitted to facilitate connecting the
starter cables.
Battery box without extra terminals
Remove the battery box cover and connect the starter cable to the positive pole
(+) first. Then connect the starter cable to the negative pole (–).
When the batteries are fully discharged and the engine is running, it is impor-
tant 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 pre-
vent damage to the electrical system (peak voltage!).
To disconnect, remove the negative pole (–) first, then the positive pole (+) and
install the cover.
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.
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 (2) and connect the
starter cable to the positive pole (+)
first. Then connect the starter cable to
the negative pole (–).
When the batteries are fully discharged
and the engine is running, it is impor-
tant that the starter cables are not
immediately disconnected. The engine
must run for at least 2 to 3 minutes
before the starter cables are discon-
nected to prevent damage to the electri-
cal system (peak voltage!).
To disconnect, remove the negative pole
(–) first, then the positive pole (+) and
install the cover.
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.
