Exclusive jump starting
terminal cover
4. Open the exclusive jump starting termi-
nal cover.
5. If the booster battery is installed in
another vehicle, make sure the ve-
hicles are not touching. Turn off all
unnecessary lights and accessories.
When boosting, use the battery of
matching or higher quality. Any other
battery may be difficult to jump start
with. If jump starting is difficult, charge
the battery for several minutes.
6. If required, remove all the vent plugs
from the booster batteries. Lay a cloth
over the open vents on the batteries.
(This helps reduce the explosion haz-
ard, personal injuries and burns.)
7. If the engine in the vehicle with the
booster battery is not running, start it
and let it run for a few minutes. During
jump starting, run the engine at about
2000 rpm with the accelerator pedal
lightly depressed.
