Notice: If you leave your radio or other
accessories on during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged. The repairs
would not be covered by your warranty. Always
turn off your radio and other accessories when
jump starting your vehicle.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the
cigarette lighter or the accessory power
outlet(s). Turn off the radios and all lamps that
are not needed. This will avoid sparks and help
save both batteries. And it could save the radio!
4. Open the hood on the other vehicle and locate
the positive (+) and negative (−) terminal
locations on that vehicle.
You will not need to access your battery for
jump starting. Your vehicle has a remote
positive (+) jump starting terminal for that
purpose. The terminal is located under a
tethered cap at the front of the underhood fuse
block. See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 364 for more information on location.
Squeeze the tabs and
swing the cap out of the
way to access the
remote positive (+)
terminal.
You should always use the remote positive (+)
terminal instead of the positive (+) terminal
on the battery.
{CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the
engine is not running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from
any underhood electric fan.
