JUMP STARTING

can be dangerous if done improperly, so
please follow the procedures in this section
carefully.

WARNING!

Do not attempt jump starting if the battery
is frozen. It could rupture or explode and
cause personal injury.

CAUTION!

Do not use a portable battery booster pack
or any other booster source with a system
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to
the battery, starter motor, alternator or
electrical system may occur.

NOTE:

When using a portable battery booster pack,
follow the manufacturer's operating instruc-
tions and precautions.

Preparations For Jump Start

The battery in your vehicle is located in the
right rear of the engine compartment, behind
the Power Distribution Center.
