JUMP STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be 
jump started using a set of jumper cables and a 
battery in another vehicle or by using a portable 
battery booster pack. Jump starting can be 
dangerous if done improperly so please follow 
the procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack 
follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc -
tions and precautions.
Preparations For Jump Start
The battery in your vehicle is located on the left 
side of the engine compartment.
Remote Positive Post
Remote Negative Post
 1. Apply the parking brake, shift the 
automatic transmission into PARK (P) and 
place the ignition to OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all  unnecessary electrical accessories.
3. If using another vehicle to jump start the  battery, park the vehicle within the jumper 
cables reach, set the parking brake and 
make sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery is 
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause 
personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or 
any other booster source with a system 
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to 
the battery, starter motor, alternator or 
electrical system may occur.
WARNING!
Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan 
whenever the hood is raised. It can start 
anytime the ignition switch is ON. You can 
be injured by moving fan blades.
Remove any metal jewelry such as rings, 
watch bands and bracelets that could 
make an inadvertent electrical contact. You 
could be seriously injured.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can 
burn your skin or eyes and generate 
hydrogen gas which is flammable and 
explosive. Keep open flames or sparks 
away from the battery.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE379
Snow Tires  
Some areas of the country require the use of 
snow tires during the Winter. Snow tires can be 
identified by a “mountain/snowflake” symbol 
on the tire sidewall.
If you need snow tires, select tires 
equivalent in size and type to the 
original equipment tires. Use snow 
tires only in sets of four; failure to do 
so may adversely affect the safety and handling 
of your vehicle.
Snow tires generally have lower speed ratings 
than what was originally equipped with your 
vehicle and should not be operated at 
sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h). For 
speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h) refer to 
original equipment or an authorized tire dealer 
for recommended safe operating speeds, 
loading and cold tire inflation pressures.
While studded tires improve performance on 
ice, skid and traction capability on wet or dry 
surfaces may be poorer than that of 
non-studded tires. Some states prohibit 
studded tires; therefore, local laws should be 
checked before using these tire types.
Spare Tires — If Equipped   
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with Tire Service Kit 
instead of a spare tire, please refer to “Tire 
Service Kit” in “In Case Of Emergency” for 
further information.
Refer to the “Towing Requirements - Tires” in 
“Starting And Operating” for restrictions when 
towing with a spare tire designated for 
temporary emergency use.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire 
And Wheel — If Equipped  
Your vehicle may be equipped with a spare tire 
and wheel equivalent in look and function to the 
original equipment tire and wheel found on the 
front or rear axle of your vehicle. This spare tire  may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle. 
If your vehicle has this option, refer to an 
authorized tire dealer for the recommended tire 
rotation pattern.
Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped  
The compact spare is for temporary emergency 
use only. You can identify if your vehicle is 
equipped with a compact spare by looking at 
the spare tire description on the Tire and 
Loading Information Placard located on the 
driver’s side door opening or on the sidewall of 
the tire. Compact spare tire descriptions begin 
with the letter “T” or “S” preceding the size 
designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M.
T, S = Temporary Spare Tire
Since this tire has limited tread life, the original 
equipment tire should be repaired (or replaced) 
and reinstalled on your vehicle at the first 
opportunity.
Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount 
a conventional tire on the compact spare wheel, 
since the wheel is designed specifically for the 
compact spare tire. Do not install more than 
one compact spare tire and wheel on the 
vehicle at any given time.
CAUTION!
Because of the reduced ground clearance, do 
not take your vehicle through an automatic 
car wash with a compact or limited use 
temporary spare installed. Damage to the 
vehicle may result.
