Turn off the  ignition  on  both vehicles. Unplug 
unnecessary  accessories  plugged into  the  cigarette 
lighter  or  in the  accessory power outlet. Turn 
off 
the  radio  and all lamps that aren’t  needed.  This will 
avoid  sparks and help  save  both batteries. And it 
could  save  your  radio! 
Open  the  hoods and  locate the batteries. Find the 
positive 
(+) 
and  negative 
(-) 
terminal locations on 
each  vehicle. 
You  will  not need to  access  your battery for jump 
starting.  Your  vehicle has a  remote  positive 
(+) 
jump  starting  terminal  for  that  purpose. 
The terminal is located 
under  a tethered cap at 
the front  of the underhood 
fuse  block. See

Squeeze the tabs and pull up 
on the cap  to  access

use the remote positive 
(+) 
terminal instead of the 
positive (+) terminal on your  battery. 
An  electric  fan  can start up ever  !hen  the 
engine is not running and can injure you.
