Vehicle care 309
To raise the vehicle, position the jack
under the centre of the suspension
cross member or hoist pad locations.
Warning
Do not jack under the suspension
control arms. Do not get under
a vehicle that is supported by
a jack. No person should place
any portion of their body under a
vehicle that is supported by
a jack.
Warning
Do not push start or tow start
either a manual or an automatic
vehicle. If unburnt fuel were to
reach the catalytic converter
and ignite, the converter could
overheat or be destroyed by
backfi re. Therefore, if the battery
is fl at, jump start, but do not push
start the vehicle.
Batteries produce explosive
gases, contain corrosive acids
and supply levels of electrical
current high enough to cause
burns. Therefore, adhere to the
following when working near a
battery:
• Do not attempt jump starting
directly from the battery in the
boot (Sedan) or cargo area
(Sportwagon).
• Do not let the jumper lead
clamps touch each other or
other metal parts.
Jump starting
Read the following warnings and
procedure in full before attempting to
jump start the vehicle.
If you are still unsure about
jump starting, Holden strongly
recommends for your safety and
that of the vehicle that you seek
the assistance of a suitably trained
service technician.
If the vehicle battery is disconnected
or discharged, the tailgate
(Sportwagon) will not open normally.
See Manual tailgate release on
page 24 .
