Discharged battery
If the battery is discharged, the engine can be
started using a fully-charged 12-volt battery
and jumper cables. Two connecting leads
have been provided for jump-starting the
snowmobile. Due to the rubber engine mount-
ing, the snowmobile frame is not a suitable
grounding point for jump-starting the engine.
WARNING
EWS00570
●
Connect the jumper cables only to the
connecting lead terminals. Do not con-
nect them to the frame or any wire or
other lead.
●
When connecting the jumper cables, do
not contact the jumper cables or con-
necting lead terminals to each other or
to the frame or any metal part of the
snowmobile. This can cause electrical
system damage or A FIRE HAZARD.
●
Be sure to pull the lead covers back over
the terminals completely. If the termi-
nals are exposed, they could come into
contact with the frame or a metal part of
the snowmobile and this can cause elec-
trical system damage or A FIRE HAZ-
ARD.
