JUMP-STARTING:
The following jump-starting procedures should be followed when rendering assistance to
a Lexus LFA.
• Follow all normal jump-starting precautions as outlined in other AAA/CAA
publications
• Ensure that all electrical accessories and the ignition switch are turned OFF and
the ignition key is removed from the ignition before connecting jumper cables or
a jumper box to the discharged vehicle
• Open the rear cargo area. If the battery is so discharged that the electric release
will not function, refer to the rear cargo release override information on page 20
• Remove the battery compartment cover
• When jump-starting this vehicle, you need to connect the jumper cables directly
to the battery due to the construction of the vehicle. Make the connections in
the following order:
1. Connect the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive battery terminal of the
discharged vehicle and to the positive (+) battery terminal of the donor vehicle
or jumper box.
2. Connect the negative (-) jumper cable to the negative battery terminal of the
donor vehicle. (Skip this step if using a jumper box.)
3. Connect the negative (-) cable to negative battery terminal of the discharged
vehicle. DO NOT CONNECT THE NEGATIVE TO THE BODY OF THE
VEHICLE AS DAMAGE TO THE BODY MAY RESULT.
4. If using a jumper box with an ON/OFF switch, make the connection with the
jumper box turned OFF.
• Get into the vehicle and close all doors before attempting to turn the ignition on
