3. Inspect the vehicle to be used for
jump-starting to determine if voltage
and ground polarity are compatible.
The vehicle must have a 12-volt DC,
negative ground electrical system.
4. Move the vehicle to be used for the
jump-start close enough to ensure
the jumper cables easily reach; then
shift into neutral, set and lock the
brakes, shut off all electrical acces-
sories, and turn the ignition switch
OFF.
NOTE: Make sure all switches on
the vehicle to be jump-started are
turned OFF.
5. Disconnect all external accessories
such as cell phones, GPS units, and
radios on both vehicles.
6. Attach one clamp of the positive
(red) jumper cable to the positive (+)
terminal (1) of the dead battery (C)
being careful not to touch any metal
with the other clamp; then attach the
other clamp of the positive (red)
jumper cable to the positive (+) ter-
minal (2) of the good battery (B).

NOTE: Some jumper cables may
be the same color but the clamps or
ends will be color-coded red and
black.
7. Attach one clamp of the negative
(black) jumper cable to the negative
(-) terminal (3) of the good battery
(B); then attach the other clamp of
the negative (black) jumper cable (4)
to an unpainted metal surface (A) on
the engine or frame well away from
the dead battery and fuel system
components.
8. Stand well away from the dead bat-
tery and start the vehicle with the
good battery. Allow the vehicle to
run for several minutes applying
some charge to the dead battery.
9. Start the vehicle with the dead bat-
tery and allow it to run for several
minutes before disconnecting the
jumper cables.
10. Remove the jumper cables in oppo-
site order of hook-up (4, 3, 2, 1). Be
careful not to short cables against
bare metal.
NOTE: Have the battery and elec-
trical system checked prior to oper-
ating the vehicle again.
! WARNING
If any of these conditions exist, DO
NOT attempt a jump-start, boost, or
charge the battery. An explosion
could occur causing serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
Always make sure the electrical sys-
tems are of the same voltage and
ground polarity prior to connecting
jumper cables. If not, severe electrical
damage could occur.
CAUTION
Failure to disconnect electronic
accessories during jump-starting may
cause system damage due to power
spikes.
! WARNING
Never make the final connection to a
battery as a spark could ignite hydro-
gen gases causing an explosion of the
battery resulting in acid burns or
blindness.
