perform these operations.
Starting by pushing or

(D Note
Vehicles with an automatic tran smission
cannot be started by pu shing or towing .
Starting with jumper
cables
If necessary, the engine can be started by
connecting it to the battery of another vehi

If the engine sho uld fail to start because of a
discha rged o r weak battery, the battery can be
connected to the battery o f
another vehicle,
using a
pair of jumper cables to start the en

@ Tips
-The discharged battery must be properly
connected to the vehicle's electrical sys
tem. When jump starting or charging the
battery, never connect the negative
ground cable to the battery negative
post because the battery manager sys
tem must be able to detect the battery's
state of charge . Always connect the neg
ative ground cable to the negative
ground post of the battery manager con
trol unit.
Use of jumper cables
Make sure to connect the jumper coble
clomps in exactly the order described below!

The procedure described below for connecting
jumper cables is intended to provide a jump
start for your veh icle .
Hybrid drive*: read the important information
concerning a dead high voltage battery under
c:;, poge 105.
Vehicle with discharged battery:
"Turn off lights and accessor ies, move lever
of automatic transmission
to N (Neutra l) or
P (Park) and set parking brake.
Connect POSITIVE(+) to POSITIVE(+)
(red)
.. Remove the cover CD by pressing on the ar
row
c:;, fig. 229 .
.. Open the cover @on the positive terminal.
l. Connect one end of the red positive cable
on the
jump start bolt c:;, fig. 230 CD
(Bolts under cover= "positive") of the ve
hicle to be started @.
2. Connect the other end to the positive ter-
minal @of the booster battery@.
Connect NEGATIVE( -) to NEGATIVE( -)
(black)
3 . Connect one end of the black negative ca
ble to the negat ive termina l@ of the
booster battery @.
4. Connect the other end of the black nega
tive cab le to the
jump start bolt@ (Bolts
with hex head= "negative") of the vehicle
to be started @.
Starting the engine
"Start the engine of the veh icle w ith the
booster battery@. Run the engine at a
moderate speed .
.. Start engine with discharged vehicle battery
@ in the usual manner .
.. If the engine fails to start: do not keep the
starter cranking for longer than 10 seconds.
Wait for about 30 seconds and then try aga in.
" With engine running, remove jumper cables
from both vehicles in the exact
reverse or·
de r.
" Close the cover @on the positive terminal
and re-install the cover
CD c:;, fig. 229.
The battery is vented to the outside to prevent
gases from entering the vehicle inter ior. Make
sure that the jumper clamps are well connect
ed with their
metal ports in full contact with
the battery terminals.
& WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury and dam
age to the vehicle, heed all warnings and
instructions of the jumper cable manufac
turer. If in doubt, call for road serv ice.
- Jumper cables must be long enough so
that the vehicles do not touch.
- When connecting jumper cables, make
sure that they cannot get caught in any
moving parts in the engine compart
ment.
- Do not bend over the batteries -danger
of chemical burns!
- The battery ce ll locking screws must be
t ightened securely .
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed all
WARNINGS
~ page 231.
{[) Note
Improper hook-up of jumper cables can ru
in the generator.
- Always connect POSITIVE(+) to POSI
TIVE(+), and NEGATIVE(-) to NEGATIVE
(-) ground post of the battery manager
control unit.
- Check that all screw plugs on the battery
ce lls are screwed in firmly .
If not, tighten
plugs prior to connecting clamp on nega
tive battery terminal.
- Please note that the procedure for con
necting a jumper cable as described
above applies spec ifically to the case of
your vehicle be ing jump started. When
you are giving a jump start to another ve
hicle, do
not connect the negative(-) ca
ble to the negative(-) terminal on the
discharged battery©
c::> fig. 230. In
stead, securely connect the negative(-)
cable to either a solid metal component
that is firmly bolted to the engine block
or to the engine block itself. If the bat
tery that is being charged does not vent
to the outside, escaping battery gas
could ignite and explode!
