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 radio 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 see the battery of your vehicle
under the hood. It is located under the rear
passenger’s seat. You will not need to access
the battery for jump starting. The remote
positive (+) terminal is for that purpose. See
Engine Compartment Overview on page 334
for location.
Access the remote positive (+) terminal by
removing the cover.
{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.
