2021 Aston Martin DBX Performance User Manual

The Aston Martin DBX 2021 is a luxury SUV that combines speed, precision, and excitement in a way that works well together. At its core is a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine that puts out 542 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, which is a lot. This engine makes it possible for the DBX to go from 0 to 60 mph in about 4.3 seconds and hit a top speed of about 181 mph. The DBX has a 9-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, so it handles well and has better grip in a wide range of driving situations. With adjustable driving modes, you can make the car work the way you want it to, finding a good mix between luxury comfort and fun driving. The DBX’s adjustable air suspension is another example of Aston Martin’s attention to detail, which makes for a smooth ride. The DBX is great on paved roads, but it can also go off-road, which makes it a good choice for both city trips and more exciting ones. The Aston Martin DBX 2021 shows how committed the brand is to providing a luxury yet exciting driving experience by combining the elegance of an SUV with the brand’s famously thrilling performance. It shows how much Aston Martin cares about the quality of its engineering and the goal of driving pleasure in every way.

Emergency and Breakdown

Vehicle Recovery

Caution:
When the vehicle is moved by transporter make sure that the vehicle is not strapped down by the suspension control arms.

Caution:
Power braking and power steering are not available with the engine off. Substantially higher brake pedal pressures and steering effort are required.

Caution: If there is a transmission fault, this vehicle must be transported.
If the park brake was applied and the vehicle has lost power, the park brake will not release. Call Aston Martin Assistance or your local Aston

Martin Dealer.
Your vehicle should always be recovered on a vehicle transporter1 and should only be towed for short distances, for example, if it is causing an obstruction or if it requires winching onto a transporter.

If moving the vehicle in such a situation:

1.  Remove the tow eye from its storage location in the vehicle tool kit (located in the spare wheel well). Insert the tow eye carefully through the grill and install to the exposed female threads in the front (A) or rear (B) until fully engaged against the vehicle body1.

The tow eye has a left hand thread. Protect vehicle paint work when installing the tow eye.
When being towed use the footbrake very gently when required, to prevent excessive slack in the tow rope.

Park lock
If the vehicle fails to start or has broken down, the automatic transmission will move into P (Park) to prevent unintended vehicle movement. The park lock will not release. Call Aston Martin Assistance.

Jump Start From Another Vehicle
Warning:
The donor vehicle must have a 12 volt battery and a negative (-) earth terminal to make sure that the correct battery polarity is maintained.

Caution:
Apart from vehicle recovery, this vehicle must not be driven if the vehicle battery is incapable of starting the engine. In this case the vehicle battery must be replaced.

Caution:
If the voltage or earth of the donor vehicle is different or not known, do not attempt starting in the way described. If this vehicle will not start due to a discharged battery, it may be started, for vehicle recovery, by connecting the battery from another vehicle (donor) to this vehicle (recipient).

Jump Start Procedure

Caution:
Remove rings, metal watch bands and any other jeweler.

Caution:
Set all electrical motors and ancillaries in both vehicles to OFF.

Caution:
Set all lamps to OFF except those needed to protect vehicles or illuminate the work area. Recharge time will depend on the initial ‘state of health’ of the discharged battery. If the vehicle still will not start, contact your Aston Martin Dealer.

1. Position the donor vehicle so that the connecting cables will reach into the recipient engine bay. Apply the park brake and leave the engine running.
2. Remove the cover for the jump start terminal (A).
3. Connect the positive cable between the positive terminal of the donor battery and the positive (+) jump point (A) on the main power feed.
4. Connect the negative cable between the negative terminal of the donor battery and the negative (-) stud (B).
   
5. Start the donor vehicle engine and increase the engine speed and run at about 1500 – 2000 rpm for two minutes1. The donor vehicle must be set to OFF. If the donor vehicle is not set to OFF the recipient vehicle will not start.
6. Switch the donor vehicle off.
7. Start the engine of the recipient vehicle.
8. Leave the jump start cables attached and the engines running for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the battery to charge.
9. Remove the jump start cables, first the negative cable from both vehicles and then the positive cable from both vehicles. Allow the recipient engine to run until the discharged battery is sufficiently charged (15 to 20 minutes) to start the engine without assistance. Set the engine to OFF and restart the engine. Take the vehicle on a long run to fully charge the battery. Contact your Aston Martin Dealer to have the battery checked or replaced.

Vehicle Lifting

Warning:
Make sure that no persons are in the vehicle before the vehicle is lifted.

Warning:
Make sure that the park brake is applied and that the vehicle transmission is in P (Park).

Warning:
Make sure that the vehicle is parked on firm and level ground to give a secure base for the jack.

Warning:
Do not lift the vehicle by placing a jack or other lifting equipment under the suspension arms.

Warning:
Do not use a jack or other lifting equipment further inboard on the vehicle than the jacking points shown. Set the drive mode to Terrain+ before lifting the vehicle.

If this vehicle is to be raised using a vehicle jack make sure that the following jacking points are used.
