• Connect the negative end
(-)
of the jumper cable to the negative
(-)
post of the
booster battery.
• Connect the opposite end of the negative
(-)
jumper cable to a good engine
ground (exposed metal part of the discharged vehicle’s engine) away from the
battery and the fuel injection system.
• Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a
few minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
• Disconnect the negative
(-)
jumper cable from the engine ground of the vehicle
with the discharged battery.
• Disconnect the negative end
(-)
of the jumper cable from the negative
(-)
post
of the booster battery.
• Disconnect the opposite end of the positive
(+)
jumper cable from the positive
(+)
post of the booster battery.
• Disconnect the positive
(+)
end of the jumper cable from the positive
(+)
post
of the discharged vehicle.
• If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the
battery and charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
• Accessories that can be plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw
power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery
will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
• Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any other booster source
with a system voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery,
starter motor, alternator or electrical system may occur.
• Failure to follow these procedures could result in damage to the charging
system of the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
WARNING!
• When temperatures are below the freezing point, electrolyte in a
discharged battery may freeze. Do not attempt jump-starting because
the battery could rupture or explode and cause personal injury. Battery
temperature must be brought above freezing point before attempting a
jump-start.
• Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan whenever the hood is raised. It
can start anytime the ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving
fan blades.
