IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
12-3
7. Connect one end of the second lead of jumper cable to
the negative terminal of the booster battery.
8. Make the last connection to a suitable ground, such as a
steel bracket bolted to the engine block. This last connec-
tion should be as far away from the battery as possible.
9. Attempt to start the engine with discharged battery while
slightly accelerating the engine with booster battery.
10. If the engine is started, let it run for a few minutes.
11. After starting the engine, carefully disconnect the jumper
cables in the reverse sequence of connection.
• Connecting the jumper cable to the negative terminal of the dis-
charged battery could result in arcing and possibly a battery
explosion. Serious personal injury or vehicle damage can result.
• Make sure that the jumper leads are securely connected. Otherwise,
an abrupt disconnection due to vibration during engine starting may
cause an electrical short resulting in severe damage in electric
components.
• Make sure that the booster battery has the same voltage rate with
the discharged battery.
Batteries can explode. You could be burned by battery acid. Electrical
short could injure you or damage the vehicles.
• Do not expose battery to flames or sparks.
• Do not allow cable terminals to touch each other.
• Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabric, or painted
surfaces.
• Do not disconnect discharged battery from vehicle.
• This can create damage to electrical systems in both vehicles, and
cause serious personal injury.
