Roewe ei6 jump-start method after running out of battery: 1. Open the car hood, connect the red end of the jumper cable to the positive terminal of the rescued car's battery, and the other end to the positive terminal of the rescue car; 2. Connect the black cable to the negative terminal of the rescue car, and the other end to the negative terminal of the rescued car; 3. Start the rescue car to begin jump-start charging. After the Roewe ei6 battery runs out, you can call Roewe after-sales service for jump-start assistance or contact your insurance company for jump-start service. Taking the Roewe i6 New Energy 2017 45T Hybrid Internet Smart Edition as an example: The car is equipped with a 1.0T 125-horsepower L3 turbocharged engine and a 2-speed automatic transmission, with a maximum power of 168 kW and a maximum torque of 622 Nm.
Last time my Roewe ei6's small battery was dead, I used a friend's car to jump-start it. First, prepare the jumper cables, red to positive and black to negative. Find a car with a normal battery, park both cars head to head, turn off the engines and put them in P gear. Open the hood of the Roewe, the battery is in the front right corner under a plastic cover, remove it to see the positive and negative terminals. Remember the sequence: first connect the positive terminal of the rescue car, then the positive terminal of the rescued car, then the negative terminal of the rescue car to a metal frame, and finally the negative terminal of the rescued car to an engine metal part. Never let the positive and negative terminals cross! After securing the clamps, let the rescue car start its engine, wait for three minutes before starting the Roewe. After starting, rev the engine a few times before removing the cables, remember to remove the negative terminal first, then the positive. After jump-starting, it's best to drive for half an hour to charge the battery, to avoid breaking down again on the road.
The jump-start process for the Roewe ei6 is actually quite straightforward. I've done it myself when my battery aged and lost charge. The key is locating the battery position—this car's auxiliary battery is hidden under the right-side panel in the engine compartment. Prepare jumper cables with dual alligator clips, making sure to distinguish between the red and black colors. When connecting positive to positive, be careful not to let the clips touch any metal parts of the car body. For the negative terminal, it's best to connect to a grounding point like the engine block. After connecting, let the rescue vehicle idle for five minutes to stabilize the current before attempting to start the dead vehicle. Once started, don't turn off the engine immediately—allow the alternator to charge the battery for a while. In cold weather, remember to turn off power-consuming devices like AC and headlights before jump-starting. After completion, check the battery terminals for corrosion and apply some grease if necessary to prevent oxidation.
