If the engine stops/fails
Vehicle operation and control are affected if the en-
gine stops.
Before moving the vehicle to a safe area, be aware
of the following:
l The brake booster becomes inoperative and
the pedal effort will increase. Press down the
brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering pump is no longer
operative, the steering wheel feels heavy
when turning it.Emergency starting E00800502112
If the engine cannot be started because the battery
is weak or dead, the battery from another vehicle
can be used with jumper cables to start the engine.WARNINGl To start the engine using jumper cables
connected from another vehicle, perform
the correct procedures according to the in-
struction manual. Incorrect procedures
could result in a fire or explosion or dam-
age to the vehicles.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper
cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles
aren’t touching each other.
If they are, it could cause a ground connec-
tion you don’t want. The vehicle will not
start, and the bad grounding could damage
the electrical systems.
CAUTIONl Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn’t 12-volt, shorting
can damage both vehicles.
2. You could be injured if the vehicles move.
Set the parking brake firmly on each vehicle.
Put an automatic transmission in “P”
(PARK) or a manual transmission in “N”
(Neutral). Turn off the ignition switch.
WARNINGl Turn off the ignition on both vehicles be-
forehand.
Make sure that the cables or your clothes
cannot be caught by the fan or drive belt.
Personal injury could result.
NOTE
l Turn off all lamps, heater and other electrical
loads. This will avoid sparks and help save
both batteries.
3. Make sure battery electrolyte is at the proper
level.
Refer to “Battery” on page 8-09.
WARNINGl If electrolyte fluid is not visible, or ap-
pears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt Jump
Starting!
A battery might rupture or explode if the
temperature is below the freezing point
or if it is not filled to the proper level.
4. Connect one end of one jumper cable to the
positive (+) terminal of the discharged bat-
tery (A), and the other end to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery (B).
