Jump Starting

Turn off the power to electric devices, such as audio and lights. Turn off the

engine, then open the hood.
1. Connect the first jumper cable to your

vehicle's battery (+) terminal.
Remove the cover from the under-hood

fuse box. See (Engine Compartment

Fuse Boxes)

2. Connect the other end of the first

jumper cable to the booster battery (+)

terminal. Use a 12-volt booster battery

only.
When using an automotive battery charger, select a charging voltage lower

than 15 volts. Check the charger manual for the proper setting.

3. Connect the second jumper cable to the booster battery (-) terminal.
4. Connect the other end of the second

jumper cable to the engine hanger as

shown. Do not connect this jumper

cable to any other part.

5. If your vehicle is connected to another

vehicle, start the assisting vehicle's

engine and increase its rpm slightly.

6. Attempt to start your vehicle's engine. If

it turns over slowly, make sure that the

jumper cables have good metal-to-metal contact.

A battery can explode if you do not follow the correct procedure, seriously

injuring anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking materials away from the battery.

Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead

compounds. Wash your hands after handling.

HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED

Overheating

Signs your engine is overheating:

• The temperature gauge needle is at the H mark
• The engine suddenly loses power
• Steam or spray comes out from under the hood

First thing to do:
1. Immediately park the vehicle in a safe

place. Turn off all accessories and turn

on the hazard warning lights.

2. If no steam or spray is present: Keep

the vehicle running and open the hood

(See Under the Hood).
If steam or spray is present: Turn off the

engine and wait until it subsides. Then,

open the hood (See Under the Hood).

3. Check that the cooling fan is operating and stop the engine once the

temperature gauge needle goes down. If the cooling fan is not operating,

immediately stop the engine.

4. Once the engine has cooled down, inspect the coolant level and check the

cooling system components for leaks. If the coolant level in the reserve tank

is low, add coolant until it reaches the MAX mark. If there is no coolant in

the reserve tank, make sure the radiator is cool, then cover the radiator cap

with a heavy cloth and open the cap. If necessary, add coolant up to the

base of the filler neck, and put the cap back on.

Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, restart it and check the temperature

gauge. If the temperature needle has gone down, resume driving. If it has not

gone down, contact a dealer for repairs.

Steam and spray from an overheated engine can seriously scald you.
Do not open the hoodif steam is coming out.

Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant to

spray out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the radiator

cap.
