The essentials
Tow-starting
If the engine will not start, first try starting it
using the battery of another vehicle
››› page 59. You should only attempt to
tow-start a vehicle if charging the battery
does not work. This is done by leveraging
wheel movement.
When tow-starting a vehicle with a petrol en-
gine, do not tow it more than a short dis-
tance, otherwise unburned fuel can enter the
catalytic converter.
●Engage 2nd or 3rd gear before moving off.
●Press the clutch and hold the pedal down.
●Switch the ignition on.
●Once both vehicles are moving, release the
clutch.
●As soon as the engine has started, press the
clutch and move the gear lever to neutral.
How to jump start
Jump leads
The jump lead must have a sufficient wire
cross section.
If the engine fails to start because of a dis-
charged battery, the battery can be connec-
ted to the battery of another vehicle to start
the engine.
Jump leads must comply with standard DIN
72553 (see cable manufacturer's instruc-
tions). The wire cross section must be at least
25 mm2 for petrol engines and at least
35 mm2 for diesel engines.
Note
●The vehicles must not touch each other,
otherwise electricity could flow as soon as
the positive terminals are connected.
●The discharged battery must be properly
connected to the on-board network.
