Jump starting with battery

If the starter battery is discharged then the car can be started with current from another battery.

When jump starting the car, the following steps are recommended to avoid short circuits or other damage:

Set the car's electrical system in key position 0, see Key positions - functions at different levels.

 Important

After key position 0: Wait approx. 2 minutes before connecting the donor battery, in order to allow the control system to first set the necessary parameters.
Check that the donor battery has a voltage of 12 V.
If the donor battery is installed in another car - switch off the donor car's engine and make sure that the two cars do not touch each other.
Connect one of the red jump lead's clamps to the donor battery's positive terminal (1).

 Important

Connect the start cable carefully to avoid short circuits with other components in the engine compartment.

Open the clips on the front cover of the battery in your car Ikon grå fyrkant 1 and remove the cover.
Connect the red jump lead's other clamp onto the car's positive terminal (2).
Connect one of the black jump lead's clamps to the donor battery's negative terminal (3).
Connect the other clamp to a grounding point, e.g. right-hand engine mounting at the top, the outer screw head (4).
Check that the jump lead clamps are affixed securely so that there are no sparks during the starting procedure.
Start the engine of the "donor car" and allow it to run a few minutes at a speed slightly higher than idle approx. 1500 rpm.

Start the engine in the car with the discharged battery with the remote control key inserted and a press the START/STOP ENGINE button, see Starting the engine.

 Note

When starting the engine in normal conditions the car's electric drive motor is prioritised - the diesel engine remains switched off. This means that after pressing the START/STOP ENGINE button the electric motor has "started" and the car is ready to drive. A started motor is indicated by the combined instrument panel's indicator lamps extinguishing and its preset theme illuminating.

 Important

Do not touch the crocodile clips during the start procedure. There is a risk of sparks forming.
Remove the jump leads in reverse order - first the black and then the red.
Make sure that none of the black jump lead's clamps comes into contact with the battery's positive terminal or the clamp connected to the red jump lead!
Refit the front cover for the battery in your car.

 Warning

  • The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can be formed if a jump lead is connected incorrectly, and this can be enough for the battery to explode.
  • The battery contains sulphuric acid, which can cause serious burns.
  • If sulphuric acid comes into contact with eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large quantities of water. If acid splashes into the eyes - seek medical attention immediately.
