JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
1. If the booster battery is installed in
another vehicle, make sure the ve-
hicles are not touching. Turn off all un-
necessary lights and accessories.
2. If required, remove all the vent plugs
from the booster and discharged bat-
teries. Lay a cloth over the open vents
on the batteries. (This helps reduce
the explosion hazard, personal injuries
and burns.)
3. If the engine in the vehicle with the
booster battery is not running, start it
and let it run for a few minutes. During
jump starting, run the engine at about
2000 rpm with the accelerator pedal
lightly depressed.
4. Make the cable connection in the order
a, b, c, d.
a. Connect the clamp of the positive
(red) jumper cable to the positive (+)
terminal on the discharged battery.
b. Connect the clamp at the other end
of the positive (red) jumper cable to the
positive (+) terminal on the booster
battery.
c. Connect the clamp of the negative
(black) cable to the negative (-) termi-
nal on the booster battery.
d. Connect the clamp at the other end
of the negative (black) jumper cable to
a solid, stationary, unpainted, metallic
point of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
The recommended connecting point is
shown in the following illustration:
