Vehicle Care

The jump start positive terminal (3)
and negative terminal (4) are on the
battery of the vehicle providing the
jump start.

The positive jump start connection
for the discharged battery is under a
cover. Remove the cover to expose
the terminal.

1. Check the other vehicle.

It must have a 12-volt battery
with a negative ground system.

Caution

If the other vehicle does not have
a 12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be
damaged. Only use a vehicle that
has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.

2. Position the two vehicles so

that they are not touching.

warranty. Whenever possible, turn
off or unplug all accessories on
either vehicle when jump starting.

lights and accessories in both
vehicles, except the hazard
warning flashers if needed.

the place with water and get
medical help immediately.
