Protecting electronic components
In order to prevent faults in electronic
components in the electrical system, never
connect or disconnect battery with engine
running or ignition switched on. Never start
engine with battery disconnected, e.g.
when starting using jump leads.
To avoid damaging the vehicle, do not
make any modifications to the electrical
system, e.g. connecting additional
consumers or tampering with electronic
control units (chip tuning).
Disconnecting / connecting the battery
from / to the electrical system
Disconnect the battery from the vehicle
electrical system before charging: First
detach the negative and then the positive
lead. Do not reverse the polarity of the
battery, i.e. do not confuse the terminals
for the positive and negative leads. When
connecting, start with the positive lead and
then connect the negative lead.
