JUMP-STARTING
PROCEDURES
If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be
jump-started using a set of jumper cables and a
battery in another vehicle or by using a portable
battery booster pack. Jump-starting can be dan-
gerous if done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack
follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or
any other booster source with a system
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to
the battery, starter motor, alternator or elec-
trical system may occur.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the battery is
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause
personal injury.
Preparations For Jump-Start
The battery in your vehicle is located in the right
rear of the engine compartment, behind the
Power Distribution Center.
WARNING!
• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan
whenever the hood is raised. It can start
anytime the ignition switch is ON. You can
be injured by moving fan blades.
• Remove any metal jewelry such as watch
bands or bracelets that might make an
inadvertent electrical contact. You could be
seriously injured.
• Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can
burn your skin or eyes and generate hy-
drogen gas which is flammable and explo-
sive. Keep open flames or sparks away
from the battery.
1. Set the parking brake, shift the automatic
transmission into PARK (manual transmission
in NEUTRAL) and turn the ignition to LOCK.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all unneces-
sary electrical accessories.
