9 Warning
Be extremely careful when starting
with jump leads. Any deviation
from the following instructions can
lead to injuries or damage caused
by battery explosion or damage to
the electrical systems of both
vehicles.
9 Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
9 Warning
Electric fans can start up even
when the engine is not running
and can cause injury. Keep hands,
clothing and tools away from any
underhood electric fans.
Jump starting the vehicle
If the vehicle won't start, the 12 volt
battery may be run down. To jump
start the vehicle use the underhood
remote positive (+) and negative (−)
terminals.
1. The other vehicle used to jump
start your vehicle must have
a 12 volt battery with a negative
ground system.
2. Park both vehicles close enough
so that the jumper cables can
reach both vehicles' positive (+)
and negative (−) terminals. The
vehicles must not touch each
other. It could cause an unwanted
ground connection that could
damage both vehicles' electrical
systems.
Put both vehicles in P for an
automatic transmission or electric
drive unit. For a manual
transmission, place the vehicle in
neutral and apply the parking
brake.
3. Switch off the ignition on the other
vehicle. Turn off the radio, all
lamps and accessories that are
not needed in both vehicles.
Unplug accessories from the
accessory power outlets. This
avoids sparks and helps save
both batteries and accessories.
4. Locate the positive (+) and
negative (−) terminals on the other
vehicle.
5. Open the bonnet to locate the
positive (+) and negative (−)
terminals on your vehicle. Open
the access cover (A) for the
remote positive (+) terminal. The
remote negative terminal (B) for
the vehicle is a stud marked GND
(−) in the engine compartment.
