JUMP STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Never attempt to jump start your
vehicle if the battery appears to be
frozen. Batteries in this condition
may explode or rupture if jump
starting is attempted.
• When making jump lead
connections, be certain that your
hands and the jump leads remain
clear from pulleys, belts, or fans.
• Batteries produce flammable
hydrogen gas. Keep flames and
sparks away from the battery or an
explosion may occur. Never smoke
when working in the vicinity of the
battery.
• If the booster battery you use for
jump starting is installed in another
vehicle, make sure the two vehicles
are not touching each other.
• If your battery discharges
repeatedly, for no apparent reason,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized MARUTI dealer.
• To avoid harm to yourself or
damage to your vehicle or battery,
follow the jump starting instructions
below precisely and in order. If you
are in doubt, call for qualified road
service.
