Jump Starting

Corvette. But please follow the steps below to
do it
safely.
I
NOTICE:
Ignoring these steps could result in costly damage
to your vehicle that wouldn’t be covered by your

Trying to start your Corvette by pushing or
pulling it could damage your vehicle, even if you
have
a manual transmission. And if you have an
automatic transmission, it won’t start that way.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine To Jump Start Your Corvette:
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt
battery with a negative ground system.
NOTICE:
If the other system isn’t a 12-volt system with a
negative ground, both vehicles can be damaged.
2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching
each other.
If they are, it could cause a ground
connection
you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to
start your Corvette, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Turn off all
lights that aren’t needed, and radios. This will avoid
sparks and help save both batteries. And
it could
save your radio!
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged. The repairs wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty.
4. Open the hoods and locate the batteries. Find the
positive
(+) and negative (-) terminals on each.
