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.

ble to the negative terminal of the charged

Do not connect the negative lead of the jumper
cable to the negative terminal of the battery in
the vehicle.
Be especially careful not to:
touch the positive lead of the jumper
cable to the negative lead.
reverse the polarity of the jumper ca-
bles when connecting to the batteries -
battery explosion and/or serious dam-
age to the electrical system may occur.

gine” on pages 6-3–6-7.)

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.
