200 Vehicle care ■ Never expose the battery to naked flames or sparks. ■ A discharged battery can already freeze at temperatures of 0 °C. Defrost the frozen battery before connecting jump leads. ■ Wear eye protection and protective clothing when handling a battery. ■ Use a booster battery with the same voltage (12 Volts). Its capacity (Ah) must not be much less than that of the discharged battery. ■ Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of at least 16 mm2 (25 mm2 for diesel engines).
Vehicle care 4. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear window) of the vehicle receiving the jump start. 5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads. 201 Towing Towing the vehicle Disengage the cover at the bottom and remove downwards. The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 187. Screw in the towing eye as far as it will go until it stops in a horizontal position. Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow rod – to the towing eye.
202 Vehicle care Caution Towing another vehicle Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily. Excessive tractive force can damage the vehicle. When the engine is not running, considerably more force is needed to brake and steer. To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the air recirculation and close the windows. Vehicles with automatic transmission must be towed facing forwards, not faster than 80 km/h nor further than 100 km.
