BATTERY


Location in the MINI COOPER The battery is located in the engine com- partment. Exact location, see page 92.


Location in the MINI COOPER S The battery is located in the cargo area under the floor mat.


Battery care The battery is absolutely maintenance-free, that is, the original electrolyte will normally last for the service life of the battery under moderate climatic conditions.


Charging the battery Only charge the battery in the vehicle via the terminals in the engine compartment with the engine switched off, see "Jump- starting" on page 124.


For all questions regarding the bat- tery, please consult your MINI


Dealer.<


Whenever working on the electrical system, disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Fail- ure to do this could result in fire hazards or injury due to short circuits.<


Disposal


Return used batteries to a recycling point or your MINI Dealer. Maintain the battery in an upright position for trans- port and storage. Secure the battery to pre- vent it from tilting during transport.<

FUSES


In the vehicle interior On the left side of the footwell in the side trim panel. Open the cover panel of the fuse box. To do so, press the fastener.


If an electrical device fails, switch it off and check the fuse. Plastic tweezers that you can use to pull fuses out of their sockets can be found in the fuse box in the vehicle interior, see next column.


In the engine compartment In the MINI COOPER on the right next to the battery. In the MINI COOPER S on the right next to the air filter box. Open the cover panel of the fuse box. To do so, press the clip fastener.


Do not attempt to repair a blown fuse or replace it with a fuse of a different


color or Ampere rating. To do this could cause a fire in the vehicle resulting from a circuit overload.<


If a fuse blows a second time, have the cause of the damage rectified by


your MINI Dealer.<

WARNING TRIANGLE*


FIRST-AID KIT*


JUMP-STARTING


Do not use spray starter fluids to start the engine.<


When your battery is discharged, you can use two jumper cables to start your vehicle with power from the battery in a second vehicle. Correspondingly you can help start another vehicle. Only use jumper cables with fully insulated handles on the termi- nal clamps.


Do not touch live wiring and cables on a running engine. There is a risk of fatal injury if you do this. Carefully observe the following instructions to avoid personal injury and/or damage to either vehicle or both vehicles.<


The warning triangle is located beneath the luggage compartment cover.


Comply with legal requirements requiring you to carry a hazard warn-


ing triangle in the vehicle.<


The first-aid kit is located on the left in the luggage compartment, behind the side trim panel.


Some articles in the first-aid kit are perishable. For this reason, check the expiration dates of each of the items regu- larly, and replace any whose expiration dates have passed. Source: any pharmacy. Comply with legislation requiring you to carry a first-aid kit in the vehicle.<


124

JUMP-STARTING


Preparing for jump-starting 1. Check whether the battery of the sup- port vehicle has 12 Volts and approxi- mately the same capacity – measured in Ah, printed on the battery


2. Switch off the engine of the support


vehicle


3. Switch off any electrical systems and components in both vehicles – except for the hazard warning flashers of the support vehicle. >Do not disconnect the discharged bat- tery from the vehicle electrical system >Make certain that there is no contact


between the bodywork of the two vehicles – short circuit hazard!


4. With the battery of the MINI COOPER, remove the cover panel. To do so, press both clips at the same time or with the MINI COOPER S, open the cover of the positive terminal connection for jump-starting*, see arrow 1.


Connect the jumper cables


Adhere to the sequence also when providing support for other vehicles; failure to observe this procedure can lead to sparks at the terminals and pose an injury hazard.<


Performing the jump-start 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the current and allow to run at a fast idle speed for several minutes


2. Start the engine on the vehicle with the discharged battery in the usual manner. >If the first start attempt is not suc- cessful, wait a few minutes before another attempt in order to allow the discharged battery to recharge


On the MINI: Before disconnecting the jumper


cables, switch on the lighting, rear window defroster and the highest blower speed as well as the engine for at least approx. 10 seconds to prevent a voltage surge from the regulator to the electrical systems and components.<


3. Then disconnect the jumper cables in


the reverse order.


If necessary have the battery checked and completely charged at a MINI Dealer.


125


1. On the MINI COOPER S, the positive ter- minal connection for jump-starting, see arrow 1, functions as the positive bat- tery terminal. Make a connection with the "+" jumper cable between the positive terminal of the discharged battery and the positive terminal of the support battery


2. Use the second, "–" jumper cable to set up the connection between the negative terminals of both vehicles. To do so: >Connect one terminal clamp to the


negative terminal and/or to an engine or body ground of the support vehicle >Connect the second terminal clamp to


the negative terminal of the battery and/or to an engine or body ground of the vehicle to be started. For the MINI, see arrow 2.

TOWING


For towing, use either a tow bar or a nylon rope or nylon belts that prevent sudden jerking movements.


Tow fitting The screw-in tow fitting is stored in the onboard tool kit; be sure that it remains in the vehicle at all times. This fitting is designed for installation in the tow sockets located at the front and rear of the vehicle. It is intended for towing on paved road sur- faces only.


Access to tow sockets Use a suitable object – e.g. credit card, screwdriver – to press out the covers from the recess.


Firmly screw in the towing eyelet until it stops. If this is not done, the


threads could be damaged. Never attach tie-down hooks, chains, straps, or tow hooks to tie rods, control arms, or any other part of the vehicle sus- pension, as severe damage to these compo- nents will occur, possibly leading to acci- dents.<


126


Avoid staggered towing and be care- ful that the towing rope is in tight


tension before starting to drive the vehicle that is towing.<


Tow bars If the tow fittings of the two vehicles are not directly opposite one another, please note: >Clearance and maneuvering capability


will be strictly limited in corners


>The inclination of the tow bar generates lateral force – critical above all if the road surface is slippery.


Do not tow a vehicle that is heavier than the towing vehicle, otherwise it


will no longer be possible to control the vehicle's response.<


ba.book Seite 127 Montag, 5. August 2002 8:09 20


TOWING


Tow-starting It is not possible to start the engine of a vehicle equipped with an automatic trans- mission by towing or pushing. For instructions on jump starting, refer to page 124. Never attempt to use your vehicle to push another car, since damage to the energy- absorbing bumpers could result.


Towing a vehicle


Only tow vehicles with Continuously Variable automatic Transmission


(CVT) with the front wheels raised or on a special transport vehicle, otherwise the transmission can be damaged.<


1. Place gear selector lever in neutral or idle 2. Towing speed:


Max. 45 mph / 70 km/h


3. Towing distance:


Max. 95 miles / 150 km


4. Leave the ignition key at position 1 to ensure that the brake lamps, turn sig- nals, horn and windshield wipers remain operative, and to prevent the steering lock detent from engaging


5. Switch on the hazard-warning system,


observe country-specific regulations.


Find some means of identifying the vehicle in tow, for instance, place a sign or warning triangle in the rear window.


Make sure that the ignition key remains in position 1 even when the electrical system has failed to prevent the steering lock from engaging. The steering and brakes are without power assist when the engine is off. This means that increased effort is required for steer- ing and braking.<


Towing with a commercial tow truck >Do not tow with sling-type equipment >Use a wheel-lift or flatbed carrier >Please comply with applicable towing


laws.


Never allow passengers to ride in a towed vehicle for any reason.<
