another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster

When using a portable battery booster pack
follow the manufacturer ’s operating instructions and
precautions.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any
other booster source with a system voltage greater

WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the battery is frozen.

transmission has no dipstick. Your authorized dealer can
