JUMP STARTING

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 instructions 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 voltage

greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery,

starter motor, alternator or electrical system may

occur.

TART

The battery is stored under an access cover in the

trunk. Remote battery posts are located on the

right side of the engine compartment for jump

starting.

Remote Jump Starting Post Locations

NOTE:

The remote battery posts are viewed by standing

on the right side of the vehicle looking over the

fender. The positive battery post may be covered

with a protective cap. Lift up on the cap to gain

access to the positive battery post. Do not jump off

fuses. Only jump directly off positive post which

has a positive (+) symbol on or around the post.

See below steps to prepare for jump starting:
1. Apply the parking brake, shift into PARK

(automatic transmission) or FIRST gear

(manual transmission) and cycle the ignition

to OFF.

2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all electrical

accessories.

3. Pull upward and remove the protective cover

over the remote positive (+) battery post.

4. If using another vehicle to jump start the

battery, park the vehicle within the jumper

cable’s reach, apply the parking brake and

make sure the ignition is OFF.

WARNING!

Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this

could establish a ground connection and

personal injury could result.

WARNING!



Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan

whenever the hood is raised. It can start

anytime the ignition switch is ON. You can be

injured by moving fan blades.



Remove any metal jewelry such as rings,

watch bands and bracelets that could make

an inadvertent electrical contact. You could be

seriously injured.



Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn

your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas

which is flammable and explosive. Keep open

flames or sparks away from the battery.

WARNING!

Failure to follow this jump starting procedure

could result in personal injury or property

damage due to battery explosion.

CAUTION!

Failure to follow these procedures could result in

damage to the charging system of the booster

vehicle or the discharged vehicle.

WARNING!

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

1. Connect the positive (+) end of the jumper

cable to the remote positive (+) post of the

vehicle with the discharged battery.

2. Connect the opposite end of the positive (+)

jumper cable to the positive (+) post of the

booster battery.

3. Connect the negative (-) end of the jumper

cable to the negative (-) post of the booster

battery.

4. Connect the opposite end of the negative (-)

jumper cable to the remote negative (-) post

(exposed metallic/unpainted post of the

discharge vehicle) located directly behind the

under-hood fuse box.

5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the

booster battery, let the engine idle a few

minutes, and then start the engine in the

vehicle with the discharged battery.

6. Once the engine is started, follow the discon

nection procedure below.

Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative (-) end of the jumper

cable from the remote negative (-) post of the

vehicle with the discharged battery.

2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative (-)

jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the

booster battery.

3. Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper

cable from the positive (+) post of the booster

battery.

4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+)

jumper cable from the remote positive (+) post

of the vehicle with the discharged battery, and

reinstall the protective cap.

If frequent jump starting is required to start your

vehicle you should have the battery and charging

system inspected at an authorized dealer.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS

If the vehicle is overheating, it will need to be

serviced by an authorized dealer.
In any of the following situations, you can reduce

the potential for overheating by taking the

appropriate action.



On the highways — slow down.



In city traffic — while stopped, place the trans

mission in NEUTRAL (N), but do not increase the

engine idle speed while preventing vehicle

motion with the brakes.

WARNING!

Do not connect the jumper cable to the negative

(-) post of the discharged battery. The resulting

electrical spark could cause the battery to

explode and could result in personal injury.

CAUTION!

Do not run the booster vehicle engine above

2,000 RPM since it provides no charging benefit,

wastes fuel, and can damage booster vehicle

engine.

CAUTION!

Accessories plugged into the vehicle power

outlets draw power from the vehicle’s battery,

even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.).

Eventually, if plugged in long enough without

engine operation, the vehicle’s battery will

discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life

and/or prevent the engine from starting.
