2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables
can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching
each other. If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able
to start your vehicle and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.
To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved in
the jump start procedure. Put an automatic transaxle
in PARK (P) or a manual transaxle in NEUTRAL
before setting the parking brake.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug
unnecessary accessories plugged into the cigarette
lighter or accessory power outlets. Turn off all lamps
that aren’t needed as well as radios. This will avoid
sparks and help save both batteries. In addition,
it could save your radio!
NOTICE:
If you leave your radio on, it could be badly
damaged. The repairs wouldn’t be covered by
your warranty.
Open the hoods and locate the battery on the other
vehicle and the remote positive (+) terminal located
on the passenger’s side of the engine compartment
of your vehicle. (You will not see the battery under
the hood of your vehicle, since it is located under
the rear seat on the passenger’s side.) Find the
positive (+) and negative (
-
) terminals on the
battery in the other vehicle.
You do not need to access your battery for jump
starting. The remote positive (+) terminal, located
on the passenger’s side of the engine compartment,
is for this purpose.
