Notice:If you leave your radio or other
accessories on during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged. The repairs
would not be covered by your warranty.
Always turn off your radio and other
accessories when jump starting your vehicle.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles.
Unplug unnecessary accessories plugged into
the cigarette lighter or the accessory power
outlet. Turn off the radio and all lamps that are
not needed. This will avoid sparks and help
save both batteries. And it could save
the radio!
4. Open the hood on the other vehicle and
locate the positive (+) and negative (−)
terminal locations on that vehicle.
You will not use your vehicle’s battery for jump
starting. It has a remote positive (+) jump
starting terminal, located on the underhood
fuse block, for that purpose.If your vehicle has one
of the 3800 V6 engines,
to uncover the remote
positive (+) terminal,
press the tab at
the bottom of the fuse
block and lift the
cover up.

Supercharged Engines

If your vehicle has the
5.3L V8 engine, to
uncover the remote
positive (+) terminal,
remove the fuse
block cover.
Always use the remote positive (+) terminal
instead of the positive (+) terminal on the
battery. SeeEngine Compartment Overview
on page 346for more information on location.
{CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the
engine is not running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from
any underhood electric fan.
{CAUTION:
Fans or other moving engine parts can
injure you badly. Keep your hands away
from moving parts once the engine is
running.

6. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) terminal location on the vehicle
with the dead battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
7. Do not let the other end touch metal. Connect it
to the positive (+) terminal location on the
vehicle with the good battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one.
8. Now connect the black negative (−) cable to
the negative (−) terminal location on the
vehicle with the good battery. Use a remote
negative (−) terminal if the vehicle has one.
Do not let the other end touch anything until the
next step. The other end of the negative (−)
cable does not go to the dead battery. It goes to
a heavy, unpainted metal engine part or to a
remote negative (–) terminal on the vehicle with
the dead battery.9. Connect the other end of the negative (−) cable
at least 18 inches (45 cm) away from the dead
battery, but not near engine parts that move.
The electrical connection is just as good there,
and the chance of sparks getting back to the
battery is much less.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery
and run the engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead
battery. If it will not start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.

TPMS Sensor Identication Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you replace one or more of
the TPMS sensors or rotate the vehicle’s tires,
the identication codes need to be matched to
the new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched, to the tire/wheel positions, in the
following order: driver side front tire, passenger
side front tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver
side rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool.
See your dealer for service.
The TPMS sensors may also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. When increasing the tire’s
pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
You have two minutes to match each tire and
wheel position. If it takes longer than two minutes
to match any tire and wheel position, the
matching process stops and you need to
start over.The TPMS matching process is outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to RUN with the
engine off.
3. Press the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter’s Lock and Unlock buttons at
the same time for approximately ve seconds.
The horn sounds twice to signal the receiver
is in relearn mode and the TPMS sensor
matching process can begin.
4. Start with the driver’s side front tire.
5. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s valve
stem. Activate the TPMS sensor by
increasing or decreasing the tire’s air
pressure for ten seconds, or until a horn
chirp sounds. The horn chirp, which
may take up to 30 seconds to sound,
conrms that the sensor identication code
has been matched to the tire/wheel
position. To decrease the tire’s air-pressure
use the pointed end of the valve cap,
a pencil-style air pressure gage, or a key.
