My RR TD6 run out of battery, help.

My RR run out of battery, four weeks stoped. I know these cars are not plug & play like any other car to run cables from one car to another. Please let me know the best procedure in order not to damage the electrical system. The presence lights insie the cabin are vey low and the engine wont crank. Thanks in advance. J.Seven

No different to any other car to jump start, you just need another car and a set of jump leads.
Just connect the jump leads to your car at the bulkhead +ve connect point and to the earth stud on top of the suspension mount.

Once connected run the other car for a few minutes at 1500rpm and then start your car. Then replace your car's battery.
Best of luck. Smile

Respect polarity: connect one cable between donor car positive-red battery born to the positive-red one of the RR, start the donor car, connect the other cable to the negative-black battery born of the donor car and the negative-black born of the RR, let it sit for some minutes: the charging system of the donor car will now be charging the battery of the RR; start the RR after a few minutes.
Disconnect the black-negative cable first completely, afterwards the red-positive. RR 2012MY TDV8 AB ipanema sand
