if available, can help in cold weather
conditions at or below−18°C (0°F)

Plugging the cord into an
ungrounded outlet could cause an
electrical shock. Also, the wrong
kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause a fire. You

4. Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug and store the
cord as it was before to keep it
away from moving engine parts.
