unnecessary accessories plugged into the cigarette
lighter. Turn
off all lamps that aren’t needed as well
as radios. This will avoid sparks and help save both
batteries. In addition’ it could save your radio!
4. Open the hoods and locate the battery on the other
vehicle and the remote positive
(+) terminal’ located
on the passenger’s side
of the engine, on your
vehicle (You will not see the battery under the hood
of your vehicle, since it is located under the rear seat
on the passenger’s side). Find the positive
(+) and
negative
(-) terminals on the battery in the
other vehicle.
You do not need to access your battery for jump
starting. The remote positive
(+) terminal is for
this purpose.
A CAUTION:
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.
5. Start by lifting
and moving the red
positive
(+) remote
terminal cover away
from the relay center.

negative
(-) cable to
the good battery’s
negative
(-) terminal.
Don’t let the other end
of the negative (-) cable touch
anything until the next step. The other end
of the
negative
(-) cable doesn ’t go to the dead battery. It goes
to the windshield washer bottle attaching stud on the
passenger’s upper strut tower. Don’t allow the red and
black handles on the jumper cable to touch each other.
VI 18 inches (46 cm) away
10. Attach the cable at least
from the dead battery,
but not near engine
parts that move. The
electrical connection is
just as good there, but
the chance
of sparks
getting back to the
battery is much less.
11. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for awhile.
12. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If it won’t start after a few tries, it probably
needs service.
13. Remove the cables in reverse order to prevent
electrical shorting. Take care that they don’t
touch each other or any other metal. Replace the
red positive
(+) remote terminal cover to its
original position.
