Jump Starting Procedure

CAUTION!(Continued)
over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back
into the normal range. If the pointer remains on HOT
(H), and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine
off immediately and call for service.
NOTE: There are steps that you can take to slow down an
impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C
system adds heat to the engine cooling system and
turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum
heat, the mode control to floor and the blower control to
high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the
engine cooling system.

NOTE:Push the ESC Off switch to place the Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) system in Partial Offmode before
rocking the vehicle. Refer to “Electronic Brake Control
System” in “Safety” for further information. Once the
vehicle has been freed, push the ESC Offswitch again to
restore ESC On mode.

Emergency Tow Hooks — If Equipped
If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks, they are
mounted in the front and the rear.
NOTE:For off-road recovery, it is recommended to use
both of the front tow hooks to minimize the risk of damage
to the vehicle. Always use an appropriately rated tow
strap.
