) Post

4. Good Battery Positive (+) Post

The jump start positive post is
located in the engine compartment
on the driver side of the vehicle.

The jump start negative grounding
point is the engine block or an
engine mounting bolt. Connect to a
spot as far away from the
discharged battery as possible.

The jump start positive post and
negative post are on the battery of
the vehicle providing the jump start.

The positive jump start connection
is under a trim cover. Open the
cover door to expose the terminal.

These locations are used instead of
a direct connection to the battery.

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.

3. Set the parking brake firmly and

put the shift lever in P (Park).

Caution

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 unplug all accessories on
either vehicle when jump starting.

4. Turn the ignition to LOCK/OFF.

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

{

Warning

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.

{

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.
