Vehicle equipped with electronic fuel
injection system will not start by
pushing or towing as the fuel pump
will not work in this condition. This
starting method could also result in
permanent damage to the catalytic
converter. Use jump leads to start a
vehicle with a weak or flat battery.When jump starting your vehicle, use the
following procedure:
1) Use only a 12 volt battery to jump start
your vehicle. Position the good 12V
battery close to your vehicle so that the
jump leads will reach both batteries.
When using a battery installed on
another vehicle, DO NOT LET THE
VEHICLES TOUCH. Apply the parking
brakes fully on both vehicles.
2) Turn off all vehicle accessories, except
those necessary for safety reasons (for
example, headlights or hazard lights).3) Make jump lead connections as follows:
a) Connect one end of the first jump
lead to the positive (+) terminal of the
flat battery.
b) Connect the other end to the positive
(+) terminal of the booster battery.
c) Connect one end of the second jump
lead to the negative (-) terminal of
the booster battery.
d) Make the final connection to an
unpainted, heavy metal part of the
engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery.
Never connect the jump lead directly
to the negative (-) terminal of the
discharged battery, or an explosion
may occur.
4) If the booster battery you are using is
fitted to another vehicle, start the engine
of the vehicle with the booster battery.
Run the engine at moderate speed.
5) Start the engine of the vehicle with the
flat battery.
6) Remove the jump leads in the exact
reverse order in which you connected
them.EMERGENCY SERVICE10-3
