3. Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper 

cable from the positive (+) post of the booster 

battery.

4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+) 

jumper cable from the remote positive (+) post 

of the vehicle with the discharged battery.

If frequent jump starting is required to start your 

vehicle you should have the battery and charging 

system inspected at an authorized dealer.

REFUELING IN EMERGENCY – IF EQUIPPED

The vehicle is equipped with a refueling funnel for 

a Cap-Less Fuel System  

Ú

page 290. If refueling is 

necessary, while using an approved gas can, insert 

the refueling funnel into the filler neck opening. 

Take care to open both flappers with the funnel to 

avoid spills.

NOTE:

In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel 

door from opening. If this occurs, lightly push on 

the fuel door to break the ice buildup and 

re-release the fuel door by pushing at the rear 

center edge to unlatch.

Refueling Funnel

Emergency Gas Can Refueling
Most gas cans will not open the flapper doors. A 

funnel is provided to allow emergency refueling 

with a gas can.
See below steps for refueling:
1. Retrieve funnel from the spare tire storage 

area.

2. Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening as 

the fuel nozzle.

Inserting Funnel

3. Ensure funnel is inserted fully to hold flapper 

doors open.

4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.
5. Remove funnel from filler pipe, clean off prior 

to putting back in the spare tire storage area.

CAUTION!

Accessories plugged into the vehicle power 

outlets draw power from the vehicle’s battery, 

even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.). 

Eventually, if plugged in long enough without 

engine operation, the vehicle’s battery will 

discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life 

and/or prevent the engine from starting.

CAUTION!

To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top 

off” the fuel tank after filling.
