IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Connecting The Jumper Cables
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) near the windshield cowl.
5. Start the vehicle that has the booster
battery, let the vehicle run a few minutes,
and then cycle the ignition to ON/RUN in the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
6. After a couple minutes (depending on the
level of 12 Volt battery discharge), attempt
to start the vehicle. Once the vehicle starts,
follow the disconnecting procedure below.
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative (-) end of the
jumper cable from 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.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your
vehicle, have the battery and charging system
inspected at an authorized dealer.
MOVING A DISABLED VEHICLE
The vehicle does not include a Manual Pull Out
of Park feature (to allow shifting the vehicle
transmission into Neutral without having a
running engine). If the vehicle has become
disabled (cannot achieve “Ready” to Drive), it
may be possible to move the vehicle to the side
of the road by pushing it.
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!
The rear 12 Volt DC outlet is not controlled by
the vehicle's ignition (the outlet provides
power even when the ignition is “OFF”).
Accessories (i.e., cellular devices, etc.)
plugged into the rear 12 Volt power outlet
may draw sufficient power, even when they
are OFF (in standby mode), to discharge the
vehicle's 12 Volt battery. If the device is
allowed to continue drawing power, eventually
the vehicle’s 12 Volt battery will discharge
sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or
prevent the engine from starting.
