REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
Starting with a weak battery
If the battery is not fully charged there is a risk
that the starter will not be activated automati-
cally after glow plug heating. If this is the case,
try after a period of glow plug heating to switch
to start without glow plug heating by turning
the key to ON and then to START. The starter
motor will now be activated without glow plug
heating. When the battery voltage is too low,
the glow plug heating time cannot be fulfilled
and the starter will not be activated. It can still
be possible to start by switching to direct start
after a period of glow plug heating. Poor con-
nector contact on the battery's poles can
cause the same phenomenon.
.
If the battery is too weak to start the engine, it
should be recharged.
When jump leads are used for emergency
starting, follow the procedure below:
Connecting the jump leads:
• Connect each end of the RED lead to the
POSITIVE terminal (+) on each battery,
and take care not to short-circuit an end
against the chassis.
• Connect one end of the BLACK lead to
the NEGATIVE terminal (-) on the
battery that is fully charged.
• Connect the other end of the BLACK
lead to a good CHASSIS EARTH, away
from the fuel tank and battery.
Remove the leads in reverse order:
• The BLACK cable is removed from the
chassis and then the fully charged battery.
• Finally the RED cable from both batteries.
