Jump starting
Caution
Only jump start another vehicle with an
ICE vehicle.
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged vehicle
battery can be started using jump leads
and the vehicle battery of another
vehicle.

with jump leads. Any deviation from
the following instructions can lead to
injuries or damage caused by battery
explosion or damage to the electrical
systems of both vehicles.

fluid contains sulphuric acid which can
cause injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
● Never expose the vehicle battery to
naked flames or sparks.

already freeze at a temperature of 0
°C. Defrost the frozen battery before
connecting jump leads.
