1. The vehicle used to jump start must have a 12-volt battery
with a negative ground.
Caution
If the other vehicle does not have
a 12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be
damaged. Only use a vehicle that
has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.
2. The vehicles should be close enough for the jumper cables
to reach, but the vehicles
should not be touching.
Touching could cause
grounding and possible
electrical system damage.
Put both vehicles in P (Park)
and set the parking brake
firmly.
3. Unplug accessories plugged into the cigarette lighter or the
accessory power outlet. Turn off the radio and all lamps that
are not needed. Turn off the
ignition on both vehicles.

vehicles. Some vehicles have
remote jump starting terminals.{Warning

The vehicles could be
damaged if they are not.
7. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+)
terminal on the vehicle with the
dead battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
8. Do not let the other end touch metal. Connect it to the
positive (+) terminal of the
good battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
9. Connect the black negative (−) cable to the negative (−)
terminal of the good battery.

the dead battery, but not near
engine parts that move.

13. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery. If it will not
start after a few tries, it needs
service.Caution
