2. Violation of serviceability of functioning of system of a charging (weakened or the driving belt of the generator is torn off, electroconducting is damaged, or the generator is faulty);
3. Malfunction of actually storage battery (electrolit level fell, or there was an accumulator service life).

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

1. It is not necessary to try to start the engine from the frozen storage battery, - previously warm up it;
2. Engine start from the auxiliary power supply should be made only at the cold power unit and the catalytic converter;
3. It is not necessary to carry out start by means of the device for the accelerated charging of the storage battery;
4. Before connecting the auxiliary battery, make sure that ignition is switched off;
5. Use only cables with sufficient cross-section section and with the isolated plugs;
6. Track, that all consumers of the electric power (lighting and heating devices, screen wipers, etc.) also were switched off;
