Emergency procedures
3.1 Jump starting
If the battery is flat, it is possible to start the engine using an auxiliary
battery with the same capacity or a little higher than the flat one.
IMPORTANT:
Never jump start the engine by pushing, towing or driving downhill.
In the event of emergency starting, the battery dummy poles for
remote starting are available on the left side of the engine
compartment.
1. Positive dummy pole (+) for remote starting (covered with
protective cap)
2. Negative dummy pole (-) for remote starting.
- Apply the parking brake, take the automatic transmission to P
(Park), or engage a gear on manual gearbox and ignition switch
to OFF.
- Turn off the heater, the radio and all unnecessary electrical
devices.
- Remove the protective cover above the positive dummy pole
(+) of the remote starting battery.
- To remove the cover, press the tab with the retaining clip and
pull the cover upwards.
- Connect one end of the cable used for positive (+) to the
positive dummy pole (+) of the car with flat battery.
3. Emergency procedures

FREEMONT
Emergency procedures
- Connect the other end of the cable used for positive (+) to the
positive terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery.
- Connect one end of the cable used for negative (-) to the
negative terminal (-) of the auxiliary battery.
- Connect the other end of the cable used for negative (-) to the
negative dummy pole (-) of the car with flat battery.
WARNING
Do not connect the cable to the negative terminal (-) of the flat
battery. The following spark could lead to battery explosion and
cause serious harm. Only use the specific earth point; do not use
any other exposed metallic part.
- Start the engine of the car with an auxiliary battery, let it run for
some minutes at idle and then start the engine of the car with
flat battery.
Once the engine is started, remove the cables used as a jumper
in the reverse sequence:
- Disconnect the end of the cable used for negative (-) from the
negative dummy pole (-) of the car with flat battery.
- Disconnect the other end of the cable used for negative
(-) from the negative terminal (-) of the auxiliary battery.
- Disconnect the end of the cable used for positive (+) to the
positive terminal (+) of the auxiliary battery.
- Disconnect one end of the cable used for positive (+) from the
positive dummy pole (+) of the car with flat battery.
- Refit the protective cover on the positive dummy pole (+) of the
battery for remote starting of the car with flat battery.

Interventions with flat battery
4.1 Automatic transmission - gear lever unlocking
If, in the event of a failure, the gear lever cannot be moved from
position P (Park), the following procedure can be used to
temporarily move the gear lever.
- Switch off the engine.
- Fully engage the parking brake.
- Open the central tunnel and remove the access cover for the
gear lever release device located in the front area, in the lower
right angle, of the tunnel storage compartment.
- Keep the brake pedal fully depressed.
- Insert a screwdriver or a similar small tool in the access hole,
for keeping the release lever pressed forwards.
- Place the gear lever in N (neutral) position.
- At this point, the car can be started in N (neutral).
- Refit the access cover for the gear lever release.

Vehicle towing/lifting
5.1 Towing attachment points
The tow ring is provided with the car.
Fastening the tow ring
• Remove the rubber cap from the front bumper or open the flap
on the rear bumper;
• take the tow ring Afrom its housing in the tool support;
• fully screw the hook onto the threaded front or rear pin.
5.2 General warnings for towing
Before towing, make sure that the tow ring is fully tightened.
If the car to be towed needs to be steered, the ignition device must
be set to RUN or ACC but not to LOCK/OFF.
5. Vehicle towing/lifting

FREEMONT
Vehicle towing/lifting
To define the towing methods, comply with the following table,
according to the model to be towed.
If the car battery is flat, refer to "Automatic transmission - gear lever
unlocking" to obtain the instruction about disengagement of the
automatic transmission from position P (Park) for towing.
Appropriate towing or lifting equipment is required to prevent
damage to the car. Use only suitable tow bars and other equipment,
following the manufacturer’s instructions.
Using safety chains is compulsory. Attach the tow bars or other tow
equipment to the main structural components of the car and not to
the bumpers or related brackets. Comply with local and national
laws related to towing cars.
Should it be necessary to activate devices (e.g. windscreen wiper,
defrosters, etc.) when towing, bring the ignition device to RUN and
not to ACC.
