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 dangerous 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.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump-starting if the battery is
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause
personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or
any other booster source with a system volt-
age greater than 12 Volts or damage to the
battery, starter motor, alternator or electrical
system may occur.
Preparations For Jump-Start
The battery in your vehicle is located in the front
of the engine compartment below the air intake
duct. To access the battery remove the air intake
duct by turning the two finger screws, located on
the radiator support.
