Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine
speed slightly and maintain at that level for approximately
5 minutes to recharge the battery of your vehicle.
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start
the hybrid system of your vehicle by turning the “POWER”
switch to ON mode.
Make sure the “READY” indicator comes on. If the indicator

cables in the exact reverse order from which they were con-
nected.

tabs.
