Jump starting can be dangerous if done
incorrectly. Follow the jump starting
procedure in this section to avoid serious
injury or damage to your vehicle. If in
doubt about how to properly jump start
your vehicle, we strongly recommend

to you or bystanders, always follow
these precautions when working near
or handling the battery:
Always read and follow instructions carefully when
handling a battery.
Wear eye protection designed to protect the eyes from acid
splashes.
Keep all flames, sparks, or smoking materials away from
the battery.
Hydrogen is always present in battery cells, is highly
combustible, and may explode
if ignited.
Keep batteries out of reach of children.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid which is highly corrosive. Do
not allow acid to contact your
eyes, skin or clothing.If acid gets into your eyes, flush your
eyes with clean water for at least 15
minutes and get immediate medical
attention. If acid gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the area. If you feel
pain or a burning sensation, get medical
attention immediately.
• When lifting a plastic-cased battery,
excessive pressure on the case may
cause battery acid to leak. Lift with a
battery carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
• Do not attempt to jump start your
vehicle if your battery is frozen.
• NEVER attempt to recharge the
battery when the vehicle’s battery
cables are connected to the battery.
