What to do in an emergency
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery terminals or the correct
ground. Do not lean over the bat-
tery when making connections.5.Start the engine of the vehicle with
the booster battery and let it run at
2,000 rpm, then start the engine of
the vehicle with the discharged
battery. If the first starting attempt
is not successful, wait a few min-
utes before making another
attempt in order to allow the dis-
charged battery to recharge.
If the cause of your battery discharg-
ing is not apparent, have the systemchecked by a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit an autho-rised Kia dealer/service partner.
Push-starting
Your manual transaxle-equipped
vehicle should not be push-startedbecause it might damage the emis-
sion control system. Vehicles
equipped with automatic transaxle /
dual clutch transmission cannot be
push-started. Follow the directions in
this section for jump-starting.
WARNING
Never tow a vehicle to start it
because the sudden surge for-
ward when the engine startscould cause a collision with the
tow vehicle.
CAUTION - Battery
cables
Do not connect the jumper cablefrom the negative terminal of thebooster battery to the negative terminal of the discharged battery.
This can cause the dischargedbattery to overheat and crack,releasing battery acid.
Make sure to connect one end ofthe jumper cable to the negativeterminal of the booster battery, and the other end to a metallicpoint, far away from the battery.
