exactly, some or all of these
things can hurt you.

vehicle warranty. Trying to start
the vehicle by pushing or pulling it
will not work, and it could damage
the vehicle.

2. Remote Negative (-) Terminal
The jump start remote positive (1)
and negative (2) terminals are in the
engine compartment on the driver
side of the vehicle.
These terminals are used instead of
a direct connection to the battery.

is covered by a red cap. Remove to
expose the terminal.

have a 12-volt battery with a
negative ground system.

a 12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be
damaged. Only use a vehicle that
has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.
2. Position the two vehicles so that
they are not touching.
