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 the negative (−)
terminal locations on that vehicle.
Open the hood on your
vehicle and find the
remote positive (+)
terminal, located under
a red plastic cover
on the passenger’s side
of the vehicle.
Squeeze the tab to
open the cover
and access the remote
positive (+) terminal.
You will not see the battery (or batteries) of
your vehicle under the hood. They are located
in a frame mounted battery box, which is
located on either the driver’s or the
passenger’s side of the vehicle. You will not
need to access your battery (or batteries)
for jump starting. The remote positive (+)
terminal is for that purpose.
{CAUTION:
Using a match near a battery can cause
battery gas to explode. People have been
hurt doing this, and some have been
blinded. Use a ashlight if you need
more light.
Be sure the batteries have enough water.
You do not need to add water to the
ACDelco
®battery (or batteries) installed in
your new vehicle. But if a battery has ller
caps, be sure the right amount of uid is
there. If it is low, add water to take care of
that rst. If you do not, explosive gas could
be present.
Battery uid contains acid that can burn
you. Do not get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your eyes or on your
skin, ush the place with water and get
medical help immediately.

7. 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.
8. Now connect the black negative (−) cable to
the negative (−) terminal of 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 the 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. Use the high
idle option if your vehicle is equipped with it.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead
battery. If it will not start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.
