8.5 JUMP STARTING
When the vehicle batteries do not have suffi cient
charge to start the engine, there are two ways to
start the unit:
1.
Battery Boost Switch:
Depress and hold the switch on the left side of
the dash to connect the coach batteries into the
starter circuit to use all batteries for starting.
Release the switch when the engine starts. This
will disconnect the battery from the circuit.
2.
Jump Starting:
Open the electrical utility compartment. Release
the battery slide latch and pull the tray out to
provide better access to the posts if required.
Connect the jumper cables to the battery posts.
Always connect positive to positive. The nega-
tive should be connected from the negative
terminal of the battery on the vehicle providing
the boost to the chassis of the vehicle needing
the boost.
