WARNING
Improper use of jumper cables when jump-starting a vehicle
with a dead battery can cause the battery to explode, leading to
serious personal injury. To help reduce the risk of battery ex-
plosion:
All work on the batteries or the electrical system in your ve-
hicle can cause serious acid burns, fires, or electrical shocks.
Always read and heed the following WARNINGS and safety pre-
cautions before working on the batteries or the electrical sys-
tem ⇒  Vehicle battery.
Always make sure that the battery providing starting assis-
tance (the booster battery) has the same voltage as the dead
battery (12 V) and about the same amperage capacity (see bat-
tery label).
Never jump-start a vehicle with a thawed or frozen vehicle
battery. The battery can explode. A dead battery can freeze at
temperatures around +32 °F (0 °C).
A battery that is frozen or was frozen, but has since thawed,
must be replaced.
When the vehicle battery is jump-started, it gives off hydro-
gen gas, which is highly explosive! Always keep fire, sparks,
open flame, and smoking materials far away from vehicle bat-
teries. Never use a mobile telephone while connecting or dis-
connecting jumper cables.
Jump-start batteries only in well-ventilated areas. Batteries
give off highly explosive hydrogen gas during jump-starting.
Always route the jumper cables so that they cannot get
caught in any moving parts in the engine compartment.
Never short out the battery terminals by connecting the posi-
tive (+) and negative (-) terminals with each other.
Never connect the negative cable from the other vehicle di-
rectly to the negative terminal of the dead battery, as this may
cause the hydrogen gas given off by the dead battery to ex-
plode.
Never attach the negative cable from the vehicle providing
starting assistance to any part of the fuel system or to the
brake hoses or brake lines.

Always read and heed the following WARNINGS and safety pre-
cautions before working on the batteries or the electrical sys-
tem ⇒  Vehicle battery.
Always wear proper eye protection. Never lean over the vehi-
cle battery.
Attach the jumper cables in the correct order: first the posi-
tive cable, then the negative cable.
Never connect the negative cable from the vehicle providing
starting assistance to parts of the fuel system or to the brake
hoses or brake lines.
Never allow the non-insulated parts of the battery clamps to
touch.
Never allow the jumper cable attached to the positive battery
terminal to contact metal parts of the vehicle.
Check the battery acid level indicator window on the vehicle
battery. Use a flashlight, never a match, cigarette lighter, or
other open flame. If you cannot see the color of the window
clearly, or if it is light yellow or colorless, do not jump-start the
vehicle. Get expert assistance.
Avoid electrostatic discharge in the vicinity of the vehicle
battery. Sparks may cause the hydrogen gas escaping from the
vehicle battery to ignite.
Never jump-start a vehicle with a battery that is damaged or
frozen or that was frozen and has thawed. The battery can ex-
plode. Replace the battery instead.
Always follow the instructions of the jumper cable manufac-
turer.
Always make sure that the battery providing starting assis-
tance has the same voltage as the dead battery (12 V) and
about the same capacity (see battery label).
