S
EATING INSTALLED
All passenger occupants within the vehicle must
be in a seat equipped with a Seat Belt System
and Head Restraint for the safety of the
passenger. If the passenger and/or rear seats
have been removed, do not ride in those areas.
This vehicle has been designed to maximize
total performance. In doing so, the deletion of
passenger seats and/or rear seat may affect
the NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness)
characteristics. As a result, the interior will be
louder overall.
WARNING!
If the passenger and/or rear seats have
been removed, do not ride in those areas.
In a collision, people riding in these areas
are more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
If this vehicle was not factory equipped with
a passenger seat, NEVER attempt to install
a passenger seat because the safety
systems, including the air bags and seat -
belt, may not properly protect you.
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in this area are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.
Only ride in available seating positions
equipped with seat belt systems. Always
properly wear your seat belt. Failure to do
so could result in an increased risk of
serious injury or death in the event of an
accident.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY227
PREPARATIONS FOR JUMP START
The battery is stored under an access cover in
the trunk. Remote battery posts are located on
the right side of the engine compartment for
jump starting.

Jump Starting Locations
1. Apply the parking brake, shift into PARK
(automatic transmission) or FIRST gear
(manual transmission) and cycle the
ignition to OFF.

2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all 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.
JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
Remote Positive (+) Post
Remote Negative (-) Post
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.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as
this could establish a ground connection and
personal injury could result.
WARNING!
Failure to follow this jump starting procedure
could result in personal injury or property
damage due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could
result in damage to the charging system of
the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.

Connecting The Jumper Cables

1. Connect the positive
(+) end of the jumper
cable to the remote positive (+)
post of the
vehicle with the discharged battery.

2. Connect the opposite end of the positive (+)
jumper cable to the positive (+) post of the
booster battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) end of the jumper
cable to the negative (-) post of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative (-)
jumper cable to the remote negative (-) post
(exposed metallic/unpainted post of the
discharge vehicle) located directly behind
the under-hood fuse box. 5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the
booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
6. Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence.
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables

1. Disconnect the negative
(-) end of the
jumper cable from the remote negative (-)

post of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.

2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative (-) jumper cable from the negative (-) post of
the booster battery. 3. Disconnect the positive
(+) end of the
jumper cable from the positive (+) post of
the booster battery.
4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable from the remote positive
(+) post of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your
vehicle you should have the battery and
charging system inspected at an authorized
dealer.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the
negative (-) post of the discharged battery.
The resulting electrical spark could cause the
battery to explode and could result in
personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not run the booster vehicle engine above
2,000 rpm since it provides no charging
benefit, wastes fuel, and can damage booster
vehicle engine.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices,
etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough
without engine operation, the vehicle’s
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
