When performing start of the engine from the external power supply it is necessary to pay attention to observance of some special precautionary measures:

It is not necessary to try to start the engine from the chilled battery, - previously warm up it;
On petrol models start of the engine from the auxiliary power supply has to be made only at the cold power unit and the catalytic converter;
It is not necessary to carry out start by means of the device for the accelerated charging of the rechargeable battery;
Before connecting the auxiliary battery, make sure that ignition is switched off;
Track that all consumers of the electric power (lighting and heating fixtures, screen wipers, etc.) were also switched off;
Use only cables of sufficient cross section with the isolated terminal clips;

The scheme of connection of the auxiliary power supply for start of the faulty car


П oryadok of connection of wires: 1 — the Positive plug of the failed rechargeable battery 2 — the Positive plug of the auxiliary battery	3 — the Negative plug of the auxiliary battery 4 — the Mass of the engine

PERFORMANCE ORDER

The rechargeable battery is located on the KIA Sportage cars in the right back corner of a motive compartment. The positive plug of the battery is equipped with a protective cover which should be dismantled previously, - connect the end of a red wire from a special set to the positive plug of the emergency battery (1), connect its second end to the positive plug of the auxiliary battery (2); connect one end of a black wire to the negative plug of the auxiliary battery (3), the second - to reliably grounded point (4) on the engine.
Make sure that connecting wires do not adjoin to moving components in motive compartments of both cars (a krylchatka of the fan, driving belts, etc.).
Perform the standard procedure of start of the engine. Leave the engine working at single turns. For the purpose of prevention of throws of tension at the time of a detachment of an electrical wiring include a heater of back glass and the fan of a heater, then disconnect wires, working as it should be, the return to an order of their connection. At the end of the procedure switch off excess consumers of the electric power.
