Jump-starting
Jump-starting the vehicle should be avoided. The
battery should be removed and charged instead.
(See pages 8-107–8-111 for battery removal and
installation procedures.) However, if the vehicle
must be jump-started, proceed as follows.
1. Turn the key to “OFF”.
2. Open the hood. (See pages 8-17–8-19 for
hood opening and closing procedures.)
3. Remove the battery compartment cover.
4. Using a charged 12 V battery, connect the
positive lead of the jumper cable to the posi-
tive terminal of the battery in the vehicle and
the other end of the positive lead to the posi-
tive terminal of the charged battery.

Warming up
To get maximum engine life, always warm up the
engine before starting off. Never accelerate hard
with a cold engine! To see whether or not the en-
gine is warm, check if it responds to the throttle
normally with the starter (choke) turned off.
