jumper cables and a battery in another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster
pack.Jump-starting can be dangerous if done improperly so please follow the procedures
in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack, follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the battery is frozen.It could rupture or explode and
cause personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any other booster source with a sys-
tem voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery, power electronics or elec-
trical system may occur.

start anytime the ignition switch is ON.You can be injured by moving fan blades.
•Remove any metal jewelry such as rings, watch bands and bracelets that could
make an inadvertent electrical contact.You could be seriously injured.
•Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your skin or eyes and generate hydro-
gen gas which is flammable and explosive.Keep open flames or sparks away from
the battery.
1.Set the parking brake, place the transmission into PARK and turn the ignition to
LOCK.
2.Turn off the heater, radio, and all unnecessary electrical accessories.
3.Remove the protective cover over the positive(+)battery post.
4.If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is OFF.

and personal injury could result.
Jump-Starting Procedure

the booster battery.
3.Connect the negative end(-)of the jumper cable to the negative(-)post of the
booster battery.
4.Connect the opposite end of the negative(-)jumper cable to a good engine ground
(exposed metal part of the discharged vehicle underhood compartment) away from
the battery.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the negative(-)post of the discharged battery.
The resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury.Only use the specific ground point, do not use any other exposed metal
parts.
5.Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then turn the key to RUN position on the vehicle with the discharged
battery.

with the discharged battery.
2.Disconnect the negative end(-)of the jumper cable from the negative(-)post of the
booster battery.
3.Disconnect the opposite end of the positive(+)jumper cable from the positive(+)
post of the booster battery.
4.Disconnect the positive(+)end of the jumper cable from the positive(+)post of the
discharged vehicle.
If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle, you should have the battery
