[Do not directly connect the (-) to the
jump cable. Connect the (-) to the
one of the metallic parts located far
from the jump cable in the vehicle.
The direct (-) connection to the jump
cable may cause an explosion.

[Be sure to use only 12V battery to
jump start. Using batteries with other
voltages to jump start can damage
the battery or even provoke an
explosion.
WARNING

[Keep sparks away from the battery as
the explosive gas is generated by the
sparks while the battery is running.

[When connecting the supplementary
battery and the discharged battery
with a jump cable because the
jump start does not operate with
jump start terminal in the motor
compartment, do not directly
connect the (-) to the jump cable.
Connect the (-) to the one of the
metallic parts located far from the
jump cable in the vehicle. The direct
(-) connection to the jumpcable may
cause an explosion.

[The battery contains dilute sulfuric
acid, which is highly corrosive, so be
careful not to let the battery liquid
get on your body, clothes, or car
body. If dilute sulfuric acid gets on
your body or eyes, immediately rinse
the area with clean water for about
15 minutes and then consult a doctor.
Jump starting procedure
Information
Your vehicle has a battery in the luggage
compartment, but when you jump start
your vehicle, use the jumper terminal in
the motor compartment.
1. Position the vehicles close enough
that the jumper cables will reach, but
do not allow the vehicles to touch.
2. Avoid fans or any moving parts in the
motor compartment at all times, even
when the vehicles are turned off.

Emergency Situations
OJWEV081020N
6. Connect the jumper cables in
the exact sequence shown in the
illustration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) jumper
terminal of your vehicle (1).
7. Connect the other end of the jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) battery/
jumper terminal of the assisting
vehicle (2).
8. Connect the second jumper cable to
the black, negative (-) battery/ jumper
terminal of the assisting vehicle (3).
9. Connect the other end of the second
jumper cable to the black, negative (-)
chassis ground of your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery or jumper terminals or the
correct ground. Do not lean over the
battery when making connections.
WARNING
Do not connect the jumper cable to
the negative (-) jumper terminal of the
discharged battery. A spark could cause
the battery to explode and lead to a
personal injury or vehicle damage.
10. Start the assisting vehicle and let
it run at approximately for a few
minutes. Then start your vehicle.
11. Keep your vehicle operating for at
least 30 minutes at idle or driving to
assure your battery receives enough
charge to be able to start on its
own after the vehicle is shut off. A
complete dead battery may require
as long as 60 minutes runtime to fully
recharge it. If vehicle is run for less,
the battery may not restart.
If your vehicle will not start after a few
attempts, it probably requires servicing.
In this event please seek qualified
assistance. If the cause of your battery
discharging is not apparent, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized retailer
of Genesis Branded products.
