Preparations For Jump-Start

The battery in your vehicle is located on the left side of the engine compartment.

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.

1. Apply the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK and turn the

ignition to OFF/LOCK.

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

3. If using another vehicle to jump-start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper

cables reach, set the parking brake and make sure the ignition is in the OFF/LOCK
position.

WARNING!

Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this could establish a ground connection
and personal injury could result.
