HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
After the Engine Starts
Once your vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper cables in the following 
order:
1. Disconnect the jumper cable from your vehicle’s ground.
2. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the assisting vehicle’s (-) 
terminal.
3. Disconnect the jumper cable from your vehicle’s (+) terminal.
4. Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the assisting vehicle’s (+) 
terminal.
5. Have your vehicle inspected by a nearby service station or a dealer.
Overheating
If the temperature gauge needle is at the H mark, the engine suddenly loses power, 
or steam or spray comes out from under the hood, your engine is overheat\
ing.
1. Immediately park the vehicle in a safe place. Turn 
off all accessories and turn on the hazard warning 
lights.
2. If steam or spray is not present: Keep the engine
running and open the hood.
 If steam or spray is present: Turn off the engine and
wait until it subsides. Then, open the hood.
3. Check that the cooling fan is operating and stop the engine once the tem\
perature
gauge needle comes down. If the cooling fan is not operating, immediately stop 
the engine.
4. Once the engine has cooled down, inspect the coolant level and check the 
cooling system components for leaks. If the coolant level in the reserve tank 
is low, add coolant until it reaches the MAX mark. If there is no coolant in the 
reserve tank, make sure the radiator is cool, then cover the radiator ca\
p with a
heavy cloth and open the cap. If necessary, add coolant up to the base of the 
filler neck, and put the cap back on.
Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, restart it and check the temperature gauge.
If the temperature needle has gone down, resume driving. If it has not gone down, 
contact a dealer for repairs.
Reserve

A battery can explode if you do not follow the correct procedure, seriously 
injuring anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking materials away from the battery.
WARNING
Jump Starting
Turn off the power to electric devices, such as audio and lights. Turn off the engine,
then open the hood.
1. Connect the first jumper cable to your vehicle’s 
battery (+) terminal.
2. Connect the other end of the first jumper cable 
to the booster battery (+) terminal. Use a 12-volt 
booster battery only.
3. Connect the second jumper cable to the booster 
battery (-) terminal.
4. Connect the other end of the second jumper cable 
to the engine mounting bolt as shown. Do not 
connect this jumper cable to any other part.
5. If your vehicle is connected to another vehicle, 
start the assisting vehicle’s engine and increase its
rpm slightly.
6. Attempt to start your vehicle’s engine. If it turns over slowly, make sure that the 
jumper cables have good metal-to-metal contact.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead\

compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
Booster battery
Steam and spray from an overheated engine can seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood if steam is coming out.
WARNING
Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant \
to
spray out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the radiator cap.
WARNING
Continuing to drive with the temperature gauge needle at the H mark may \
damage
the engine.
