a spare jumper that must be shorted only when the battery voltage selection is 12V
Explanation:
Per me dovrebbe essere un ponticello che normalmente è in posizione di parcheggio, cioè open=non mette in contatto (shorting) alcun piedino, mentre per impostare la batteria a 12V deve collegare due piedini specifici. So che un ponticello può essere in 'parking position' ma non ho mai sentito di un park(ing) jumper (non si trova neanche con google), quindi opterei per la safe solution 'spare jumper'. Ovviamente non hai una figura, vero?... =:-)

parking jumper set


Explanation:
"a parking jumper that must only be set when the battery voltage is 12 volts"
To "jump" and to "ponticellare" would seem to be the same thing. I'm no expert but I've set the jumpers on quite a few hard disks and I've used jumper leads on cars (doesn't seem to be the case here).
