2. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables

can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching
each other. If they are, it could cause a ground
connection you don’t want. You wouldn’t be able to
start your vehicle, and the bad grounding could
damage the electrical systems.

To avoid the possibility of the vehicles rolling, set
the parking brake firmly on both vehicles involved in
the jump start procedure. Put your automatic
transaxle in PARK (P).

3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles. Unplug

unnecessary accessories plugged into the cigarette
lighter. Turn off all lamps that aren’t needed as well
as radios. This will avoid sparks and help save both
batteries. In addition, it could save your radio!

4. Open the hoods and locate the battery on the other

vehicle and the remote positive (+) terminal, located
on the passenger’s side of the engine, on your
vehicle. Find the positive (+) and negative (

)

terminals on the battery in the other vehicle.

You do not need to access your vehicle’s battery
(which is under the rear seat) for jump starting. 
The remote positive (+) terminal is for this purpose.

CAUTION:

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