If any accessories are left on or plugged
in during the jump starting procedure,
they could be damaged. The repairs
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Whenever possible, turn off or

the engine is not running and can injure
you. Keep hands, clothing, and tools
away from any underhood electric fan.

Warning

Using a match near a battery can cause
battery gas to explode. People have been
hurt doing this, and some have been
blinded. Use a flashlight if you need
more light.

Battery fluid contains acid that can burn
you. Do not get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your eyes or on
your skin, flush the place with water and
get medical help immediately.

Warning

Fans or other moving engine parts can
injure you badly. Keep your hands away
from moving parts once the engine is
running.
