In an emergency
CAUTION
•
Make sure both starting systems have the
same voltage outputs, and avoid making
sparks. Otherwise, the vehicle charging sys-
tems could be severely damaged.
•
Always connect the battery, jumper cables
and charger correctly (positive-to-positive
and negative-to-negative). Connecting a
charging device backwards (positive-to-neg-
ative) can damage the vehicle electrical sys-
tems.
When using jumper cables, follow the instructions
below.
1. Shut down the engine of the vehicle with the
booster battery.
2. Check the battery electrolyte level before con-
necting the booster cables. If the fluid is below
the “LOWER” level, add battery fluid or distilled
water.
3. Set the parking brakes on both vehicles and turn
off all lights and other electrical devices.
4. Connect an end of one jumper cable to the posi-
tive (+) terminal of the booster battery . Con-
nect the other end of the cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the discharged battery .
5. Connect one end of the second jumper cable to
the negative (–) terminal of the booster battery
and connect the other end of the second
jumper cable to a ground at least 12 inches (300
mm) away from the discharged battery . The
vehicle frame is usually a good ground.
NOTE:
Do NOT connect the cable to or near the dis-
charged battery.
Keep cigarettes and open flames
well away from the battery.
Emergency starting with jumper
cables
WARNING
•
If you attempt to charge a battery with a
very low electrolyte level, it could overheat
or explode, causing a severe personal
injury.
•
Do not allow the clamps of one cable to
touch the clamps of the other cable. Other-
wise, a spark could occur near a battery,
possibly resulting in severe personal
injury.
•
Unless absolutely necessary, avoid push-
starting the engine. This could cause an
injury accident.
