BEDIEUNUNGSANLEITUNG / INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Battery Booster Cables
Safety advice:
• Converter equipped vehicles must not be push-started. Always use a battery
booster and a second car battery. By push-starting or towing the car, fuel can
get into the exhaust pipe and damage the converter.
• Always check your vehicle’s (or its accessories’ – such as car phone, board
computer etc.) instruction manual for jump starting advice.
Always check,
• that the donating battery’s capacity (ex. 45 Ah) is not significantly lower than the
capacity of the empty one.
• that only batteries of the same nominal voltage (ex. 12 V) can be connected.
• that there must not be any contact between the bodies of both cars.
• that any ignition source (open light, burning cigarettes, electric sparks etc.) has
to be kept away from the batteries (risk of explosion) and that you shall not
reach or bend over the batteries because of the risk of personal injury.
• that the discharged battery is not disconnect from the main electrical system and
that the ignitions of both cars are switched off before connecting the booster
cables: in case of a standard transmission the gear shift has to be in idle speed;
with automatic transmissions, the lever has to be set to “P” and the hand brake
has to be put on.
• that the booster cables can not be caught up in revolving parts of the engine.
• how and in what order the booster cables have to be connected.
