How to start a BMW X3 F25 with a flat battery

Model: BMW X3 MK 2, F25 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Battery

How can you restart a BMW X3 F25 with a flat battery? We know that this type of vehicle has the battery in the rear trunk, under the loading floor, but if we need to restart it, we have the contacts in the engine compartment. If the battery is completely flat, the remote control will not work either, so it will be necessary to enter the passenger compartment with the emergency key to open the engine compartment. The emergency contacts are located on the left side of the engine, at the shock absorber strut: the positive pole is highlighted by a conspicuous red cover, while on the outside of the strut itself, we will find a large bolt, which is the negative pole.
