JUMP STARTING THE VEHICLE

WARNING: Do not connect the
negative jumper cable to any other part
of your vehicle. Use the ground point.
Note: If you are using a jump pack or
booster box, follow the manufacturer's
instructions. 1. Pull the red rubber boot backward.
Connect the positive (+) jumper cable
to the positive (+) terminal of the
discharged battery.
2. Connect the other end of the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster vehicle battery. 3.

to the negative (-) terminal of the
booster vehicle battery.
4. Make the final connection of the negative (-) jumper cable to an
exposed metal part of the disabled
vehicle's engine, as shown in the
following illustration, away from the
battery and fuel injection system, or
connect the negative (-) jumper cable
to a ground connection point if
available.
Note: Do not use the hood latch as a
negative (-) connection point. This could
cause springs in the latch to burn and
prevent the hood from operating correctly. Starting the Engine
