Jump Starting

If your vehicle’s battery (or batteries) has run down, you

may want to use another vehicle and some jumper

cables to start your vehicle. Be sure to use the following

steps to do it safely.

{CAUTION:

Batteries can hurt you. They can be dangerous

because:

• They contain acid that can burn you.

• They contain gas that can explode or

ignite.

• They contain enough electricity to

burn you.

If you do not follow these steps exactly, some

or all of these things can hurt you.

Notice: Ignoring these steps could result in costly

damage to your vehicle that would not be covered

by your warranty.

Trying to start your vehicle by pushing or pulling it

will not work, and it could damage your vehicle.

1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a

12-volt battery with a negative ground system.

Notice: If the other vehicle’s system is not a 12-volt

system with a negative ground, both vehicles can

be damaged. Only use vehicles with 12-volt systems

with negative grounds to jump start your vehicle.

2. If you have a vehicle with a diesel engine with

two batteries, you should know before you begin

that, especially in cold weather, you may not be able

to get enough power from a single battery in another

vehicle to start your diesel engine. If your vehicle has

more than one battery, use the battery that is closer

to the starter — this will reduce electrical resistance.

This is located on the passenger side, in the rear of

the engine compartment.
