4. Open the hood on the other vehicle and locate the
positive (+) and negative (−) terminal locations on
that vehicle.
You will not need to access your battery for jump
starting. Your vehicle has a remote positive (+) jump
starting terminal for that purpose. The terminal is
located under a tethered cap at the front of the
underhood fuse block. SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 5-10for more information
on location.
If your vehicle has the
3.5L V6 engine, squeeze
the tabs and swing the cap
out of the way to access
the remote positive (+)
terminal.If your vehicle has the
3.6L V6 engine, pull up
on the cap to access
the remote positive (+)
terminal.
You should always use the remote positive (+)
terminal instead of the positive (+) terminal on
the battery.
{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. 3.5L V6 Engine

Accessory Inator
Your vehicle may have an accessory inator. With it,
you can inate things like air mattresses and basketballs,
and you can also use it to bring your tires up to the
proper pressure.
The accessory inator is located in the rear compartment
on the driver’s side. To remove the cover, pull the tab on
the cover and pull it off.
This is the symbol on the
accessory inator switch.
There may be an accessory inator kit stored in the
glove box. It includes a 20-foot (6 m) hose with an
air pressure gage and nozzle adapters.{CAUTION:
Inating something too much can make it
explode, and you or others could be injured. Be
sure to read the inator instructions, and inate
any object only to its recommended pressure.
To use your accessory inator system, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ACCESSORY or ON.
2. Attach the appropriate nozzle adapter, if required,
to the end of the hose that has the pressure gage.
3. Attach that end of the hose to the object you wish
to inate.
4. Remove the protective cap covering the outlet.
5. Attach the other end of the hose to the outlet.
6. Press the accessory inator switch. The light in the
switch will come on to show the system is working.
If the accessory inator system does not turn on or the
light does not come on, the fuse may be blown or
installed incorrectly. SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers
on page 5-101or see your dealer for service.
Your accessory inator will automatically shut off after
about 10 minutes. The light in the switch will blink. After
about one minute you can use the system again. Press
the inator switch and the indicator light will come on.

Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice:Don’t add anything electrical to your
vehicle unless you check with your dealer rst.
Some electrical equipment can damage your vehicle
and the damage wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment can
keep other components from working as they
should.
Your vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical to your vehicle, seeServicing
Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on page 1-85.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by internal fuses in
the fuse block. An electrical overload will cause the
lamps to go off and remain off. If this happens, have
your headlamp wiring checked right away.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by an internal
circuit breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to
heavy snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor
cools. If the overload is caused by some electrical
problem, be sure to get it xed.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Circuit breakers in the oor console fuse block protect
the power windows and other power accessories.
When the current load is too heavy, the circuit breaker
opens and closes, protecting the circuit until the
problem is xed.
5-100

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers,
and fusible thermal links.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical
size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not have
a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. Just pick a feature of your vehicle that
you can get along without – like the radio or cigarette
lighter - and use its fuse, if it is the right amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the oor
console fuse block and the underhood fuse and
relay center.
Floor Console Fuse Block
The oor console fuse block is located to the left of the
glove box near the oor. Pull the door open to access
the fuse block.
