Emergency Starting
CONNECTING THE BOOSTER CABLES
Booster cable connection points
The booster cable connection points (both
negative (-) and positive (+)) located in the
engine compartment, are remote from the
vehicle battery. These are provided to improve
personal safety when attempting to receive or
give a booster start.
The positive (+) connection point, shown in the
left inset of the illustration, is protected by a
cover to prevent an inadvertent connection and
to avoid contamination. Open the cover before
attempting to connect a booster cable.
The negative (-) connection point is a special
nut, located on the suspension turret (see
illustration).
Always use these connection points when
connecting booster cables and ensure the
cables are kept clear of any moving parts in the
engine compartment.

WARNING
ALWAYS use the recommended connection
points.
DO NOT attach booster cables to the positive
terminal of the vehicle battery. The positive
terminal is equipped with a pyrotechnic
device, that disconnects the battery as a
safety precaution when the vehicle is involved
in a collision. Attaching a booster cable to the
positive terminal may cause inadvertent
firing of the device - this may result in
personal injury or death and may damage the
vehicle.
ENSURE that each connection is securely
made and that there is no risk of the clips
accidentally slipping or being pulled from
connection points - this could cause sparking,
which could lead to explosion or fire.
