2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumpercables can reach, but be sure the vehicles are not
touching each other. It could cause a ground
connection you do not want. You would not be able
to start your vehicle, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved
in the jump start procedure. Put the automatic
transmission in P (Park) or a manual transmission
in N (Neutral) before setting the parking brake.
If you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle, be sure the
transfer case is in a drive gear, not in N (Neutral).
Notice: If you leave the radio or other accessories
on during the jump starting procedure, they could
be damaged. The repairs would not be covered by
the warranty. Always turn off the radio and other
accessories when jump starting the vehicle. 3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory power outlets.
Turn off the radio and all the lamps that are not
needed.
This avoids sparks and helps save both batteries.
It could save the radio!
4. Open the hood on the other vehicle and locate the positive (+) and negative (−) terminal locations on
that vehicle.
Your vehicle has a remote positive (+) and a
remote negative (−) jump starting terminal.
You should always use these remote terminals
instead of the terminals on the battery.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers
and fusible thermal links. This greatly reduces the
chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the
identical size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not
have a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the
same amperage. Just pick some feature of the vehicle
that you can get along without, like the radio or cigarette
lighter, and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
The vehicle also has a special fuse in the battery box
for the 300-volt batteries. If this fuse has failed and
needs to be replaced, the vehicle will be disabled and
you will need to have the vehicle repaired by your
dealer/retailer. Do not attempt to self-service this fuse.
Underhood Fuse Block
Hybrid Auxiliary Underhood Fuse Block
The hybrid underhood fuse block is located in the
engine compartment near the front of the vehicle. Lift
the cover for access to the fuse/relay block. SeeEngine
Compartment Overview
on page 6‑4for more
information on its location. For more information on the
main underhood fuse block, see “Underhood Fuse
Block” in the owner manual.
