JUMP STARTING THE VEHICLE
WARNINGS
The gases around the battery canexplode if exposed to flames, sparks,or lit cigarettes. An explosion couldresult in injury or vehicle damage.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid whichcan burn skin, eyes and clothing, ifcontacted.
Do not attempt to push-start yourautomatic transmission vehicle. Automatictransmissions do not have push-startcapability. Attempting to push-start avehicle with an automatic transmissionmay cause transmission damage.
Preparing Your Vehicle
Note:Use only a 12-volt supply to start yourvehicle.
Note:Do not disconnect the battery of thedisabled vehicle as this could damage thevehicle's electrical system.
1. Park the booster vehicle close to thehood of the disabled vehicle makingsure the two vehicles do not touch. Setthe parking brake on both vehicles andstay clear of the engine cooling fan andother moving parts.
2.Check all battery terminals and removeany excessive corrosion before youattach the battery cables. Ensure thatvent caps are tight and level.
3.Turn the heater fan on in both vehiclesto protect from any electrical surges.Turn all other accessories off.
Connecting the Jumper Cables
Your vehicle has two battery prongs thatare accessible from under the hood, eventhough the actual battery is located in thetrunk. Your vehicle can be jumped thesame way conventional vehicles can beusing these prongs. The illustration belowshows the two connector prongs used forjump-starting your vehicle.
A. Negative prong (–)
B. Positive prong (+)
Note:In the illustration, the vehicle on thebottom is used to designate the assisting(boosting) battery.
Note:Remove the red cap from the positiveprong (B) on your vehicle before connectingthe cables.

1.Connect the positive (+) jumper cableto the positive (+) prong (B) of thedischarged battery.
2. Connect the other end of the positive(+) cable to the positive (+) terminalof the assisting battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) cable to thenegative (-) terminal of the assistingbattery.
4. Make the final connection of thenegative (-) cable to the negative (-)prong (A) of your vehicle.
Note:Do not attach the negative (-) cableto fuel lines, engine rocker covers, the intakemanifold or electrical components asgrounding points.
WARNING
Do not connect the end of thesecond cable to the negative (-)terminal of the battery to be jumped.A spark may cause an explosion of thegases that surround the battery.
Ensure that the cables are clear of fanblades, belts, moving parts of both engines,or any fuel delivery system parts.
Jump Starting
1.Start the booster vehicle and press theaccelerator pedal moderately.
2. Start the disabled vehicle. Check theinstrument cluster for the Ready toDrive light as the gasoline engine maynot start, but the electric motor maybe running.
3.Once you start the disabled vehicle, runboth vehicles for an additional threeminutes before disconnecting thejumper cables.
Removing the Jumper Cables
Remove the jumper cables in the reverseorder that they were connected.
Note:In the illustration, the vehicle on thebottom is used to designate the assisting(boosting) battery.
