5. The remote negative (−) terminal
is a stud on the driver side near
the underhood fuse block.
{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 ashlight if you need more light.
Be sure the battery has enough
water. You do not need to add
water to the battery installed in
your new vehicle. But if a battery
has ller caps, be sure the right
amount of uid is there. If it is
low, add water to take care of that
rst. If you do not, explosive gas
could be present.
(Continued)
CAUTION (Continued)
Battery uid contains acid that
can burn you. Do not get it on
you. If you accidentally get it in
your eyes or on your skin, ush
the place with water and get
medical help immediately.
{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.
{CAUTION
Fans or other moving engine
parts can injure you badly. Keep
your hands away from moving
parts once the engine is running.6. Check that the jumper cables
do not have loose or missing
insulation. If they do, you could
get a shock. The vehicles could
be damaged too. Before you
connect the cables to the other
vehicle, here are some basic
things you should know.
Positive (+) will go to positive (+)
or to a remote positive
terminal (+) if the vehicle has one.
Negative (−) will go to a heavy,
unpainted metal engine part or to
a remote negative (−) terminal, if
the vehicle has one. Do not
connect positive (+) to
negative (−) or you will get a short
that would damage the battery
and maybe other parts too.
7. Connect the red positive (+)
cable to the remote positive (+)
terminal of your hybrid vehicle.
8. Do not let the other end touch
metal. Connect it to the
positive (+) terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the other
vehicle has one.

9. Now connect the black
negative (−) cable to the
negative (−) terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote negative (−)
terminal if the vehicle has one. Do
not let the other end touch
anything until the next step. The
other end of the negative (−)
cable does not go to the dead
battery. It goes to your vehicle’s
remote negative (−) terminal. The
electrical connection is just as
good there, and the chance of
sparks getting back to the battery
is much less.
10. Try to start the hybrid vehicle.
Notice:If the jumper cables are
connected or removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting
may occur and damage the
vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always connect and remove the
jumper cables in the correct order,
making sure that the cables do not
touch each other or other metal.A. Heavy, Unpainted Metal Engine

from both vehicles, do the following:
1. Disconnect the black negative (−)
cable from the vehicle that had
the dead battery.
2. Disconnect the black negative (−)
cable from the vehicle with the
good battery.
3. Disconnect the red positive (+)
cable from the vehicle with the
good battery.
4. Disconnect the red positive (+)
cable from the other vehicle.

You have two minutes to match
each tire and wheel position.
If it takes longer than two minutes to
match any tire and wheel position,
the matching process stops and you
need to start over.
The TPMS matching process is
outlined below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to
ON/RUN with the engine off.
3. Press and hold the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter’s
LOCK and UNLOCK buttons,
at the same time, for about
ve seconds to start the TPMS
learn mode. The horn sounds
twice indicating the TPMS
receiver is ready and in
learn mode.
4. Start with the driver side front
tire. The driver side front turn
signal also comes on to indicate
that corner’s sensor is ready
to be learned.5. Remove the valve cap from the
tire’s valve stem. Activate the
TPMS sensor by increasing
or decreasing the tire’s air
pressure for about eight seconds.
The horn chirp, can take up to
30 seconds to sound. It
chirps one time and then all the
turn signals ash one time to
con rm the sensor identi cation
code has been matched to
the tire/wheel position.
6. The passenger side front turn
signal comes on to indicate
that corner sensor is ready to be
learned. Proceed to the
passenger side front tire and
repeat the procedure in Step 5.
7. The passenger side rear
turn signal comes on to indicate
that corner sensor is ready to
be learned. Proceed to the
passenger side rear tire and
repeat the procedure in Step 5.
8. The driver side rear turn signal
comes on to indicate that
corner sensor is ready to belearned. Proceed to the driver
side rear tire, and repeat
the procedure in Step 5.
9. After hearing the single horn
chirp for the driver side rear
tire, two additional horn chirps
sound to indicate the tire learning
process is done. Turn the
ignition switch to LOCK/OFF.
If no tires are learned after
entering the TPMS learn mode,
or if communication with the
receiver stops, or if the time limit
has expired, turn the ignition
switch to LOCK/OFF and
start over beginning with Step 2.
10. Set all four tires to the
recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the Tire and
Loading Information label.
11. Put the valve caps back on the
valve stems.
