5. Your vehicle has a
remote positive (+) jump
starting terminal. The
terminal is under a
tethered cap at the front
of the underhood fuse
and relay center.
Squeeze the tabs and pull up on the cap to access the
remote positive (+) terminal.
You should always use the remote positive (+) terminal
instead of the positive (+) terminal on your battery.
CAUTION:
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.
Be sure the battery has enough water. You don't
need to add water to the ACDelco battery
installed in every new GM vehicle. But if a
battery has filler caps, be sure the right amount
of fluid is there. If it is low, add water to take care
of that first. If you don't, explosive gas could
be present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can burn you.
Don't get it on you. If you accidentally get it in
your eyes or on your skin, flush the place with
water and get medical help immediately.
