246IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
14. Lower the jack to the fully closed position. Return the tools to the proper positions in the
tool bag. Fold the flap on the tool bag under
the tools and roll the tools in the bag
underneath the others. Use the hook and loop
fasteners to secure the tool bag to the jack
with the lug wrench on the forward side of the
jack. Expand the jack on the bracket by turning
the thumb screw clockwise until it is tight to
prevent rattles.
15. Reinstall the plastic plug into the floor of the cargo area. Roll up and store the Jack, Tool Kit
and Tire Changing Instructions. Reinstall the
cover for the jack in the rear storage bin.
16. Have the aluminum road wheel and tire repaired as soon as possible and properly
secure the spare tire, jack and tool kit.
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 instructions and
precautions.
PREPARATIONS FOR JUMP START
The battery in your vehicle is located under the
passenger's front seat. There are remote terminals
located under the hood to assist in jump starting.
Under Hood Jump Starting Location
NOTE:Be sure that the disconnected cable ends do not
touch each other, or either vehicle, before properly
connected for jump starting.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision
or hard stop, could endanger the occupants of
the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the
spare tire in the places provided.
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.Remote Positive (+) Post

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY247
See the following steps to prepare for jump
starting:
1. Apply the parking brake, shift the automatic transmission into PARK (P) and turn the
ignition OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all electrical accessories.
3. Remove the protective cover over the remote positive (+) battery post. Pull upward on the
cover to remove it.
4. Remove the protective cover over the remote negative (-) battery post.
5. If using another vehicle to jump start the battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cable’s reach, apply the parking brake and
make sure the ignition is OFF.
JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
NOTE:Make sure at all times that unused ends of jumper
cables are not contacting each other or either
vehicle while making connections.
Connecting The Jumper Cables
1. Connect the positive
(+) end of the jumper
cable to the remote positive (+)
post of the
discharged vehicle.
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 on the right hand
side next to the underhood fuse box.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this
could establish a ground connection and
personal injury could result.
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!
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.
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.

248IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
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, follow the discon -
necting procedure.
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative
(-) end of the jumper
cable from the remote negative (-)
post of the
discharged vehicle.
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 discharged vehicle.
5. Reinstall the protective covers over the remote positive (+) and negative (-) posts of the
discharged vehicle.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your
vehicle have the battery and charging system
tested at an authorized dealer.
REFUELING IN EMERGENCY – IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle is equipped with a refueling funnel for
a Cap-Less Fuel System. The fuel funnel can be
found in the rear cargo area with the jack and
tools. If refueling is necessary, while using an
approved gas can, insert the refueling funnel into
the filler neck opening. Take care to open both
flappers with the funnel to avoid spills.
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.
WARNING!
Never have any smoking materials lit in or
near the vehicle when the fuel door is open or
the tank is being filled.
Never add fuel when the engine is running.
This is in violation of most state and federal
fire regulations and may cause the Malfunc -
tion Indicator Light to turn on.
A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a
portable container that is inside of a vehicle.
You could be burned. Always place fuel
containers on the ground while filling.
