CAUTION
•
Always connect positive j+ to positive j+ and
negative
j- to body ground, NOT to the bat-
tery’s negative
j-.
•
An incorrect connection could damage the
charging system.
•
Make sure that the jumper cables do not touch
moving parts in the engine compartment.
•
Make sure that the jumper cable’s clamps do
not contact any other metal.
•
Be careful not to allow contact between the
positive jump lead clamps and the vehicle or
the negative lead during connection and dis-
connection.
10. Start the engine of the booster vehicle

booster vehicle
jA at about 2,000 rpm.
12. Start the engine of the jumped vehicle jB in the
normal way.
CAUTION
•
Never keep the starter motor engaged for
more than 10 seconds. If the engine does not
start right away, place the ignition switch in
the “OFF” position and wait at least 10 sec-
onds before trying again.

If the starter motor does not start by pushing
the ignition switch, push the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position before trying again.

fully disconnect the negative lead and then the
positive lead (

nated with corrosive acid.

NOTE
For models which incorporate the Stop/Start
System:
•
Ensure that the battery fitted is the special
battery that is enhanced with regard to the
charge-discharge capacity and life perfor-
mance. Avoid using any other battery for the
Stop/Start System, as this may cause early
deterioration of the battery or a malfunction
of the Stop/Start System. It is recommended
that a Genuine NISSAN battery is fitted. For
more information, contact a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop
•
If the battery terminal is disconnected (for bat-
tery replacement, etc.) and then reconnected,
there may be some delay before the Stop/
Start System reactivates.
