*A, position the two vehicles (*Aand*B)
to bring their batteries into close proximity to
each other. Do not allow the two vehi-
cles to touch.
2. Apply parking brake. Move the shift lever to the
&Pposition. Switch off all unnecessary electrical systems (light, heater, air condi-
tioner, etc.).
3. Remove the battery cover. Cover the battery with a firmly wrung out moist cloth to reduce
explosion hazard.

*1?*2?*3?*4).
If the battery is disconnected or dis-
charged, the steering wheel will lock
and cannot be turned. Supply power
using jumper cables before pushing
the ignition switch and disengaging
the steering lock.
CAUTION
. Always connect positive (+) to posi-
tive (+) and negative (−) to body
ground (as illustrated) , not to the

do not touch moving parts in the
engine compartment and that
clamps do not contact any other

ized hot water will spurt out, possi-
bly causing serious injury.
