What to do in an emergency
Jump starting procedure
1. Make sure the booster battery is12-volt and that its negative termi-
nal is grounded.
2. If the booster battery is in another vehicle, do not allow the vehicles
to come in contact.
3. Turn off all unnecessary electrical loads.
4. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence shown in the illus-
tration. First connect one end of a
jumper cable to the positive termi-
nal of the discharged battery (1),
then connect the other end to the
positive terminal of the booster
battery (2).
Proceed to connect one end of the
other jumper cable to the negative
terminal of the booster battery (3),
then the other end to a solid, sta-
tionary, metallic point (for example,
the engine lifting bracket) away
from the battery (4). Do not con-
nect it to or near any part that
moves when the engine is cranked.WARNING- Battery
cables
Do not connect the jumper cable
from the negative terminal of the
booster battery to the negative
terminal of the discharged bat-
tery, directly. This can cause the
discharged battery to overheat
and crack and/or cause degra-
dation.
Connect the jumper cable from
the negative terminal of the
booster battery to the chassis
ground in the engine room.WARNING- Electrolyte
Do not charge or discharge arbitrarily. It may lead to fault,
electric shock or burns.
Do not damage the battery in any way, including dropping it,
impacting it, or piercing it with
a sharp object. It may cause
electrolyte leakage or fire.
Breakdown of the unit may lead to electrolyte leakage or
flammable gas generation. If
this occurs, contact an author-
ized Kia dealer immediately.
If electrolyte leaks out, avoid contact with eyes, skin or
clothes. In event of accident,
flush with water and get med-
ical help immediately.
Do not place near open flame or incinerate. It may lead to
fire or explosion.
Keep battery out of reach of children or animals.
Keep the battery away from moisture and liquid. Do not
touch or use if liquids have
been spilled on the battery.
WARNING- Sulfuric acid
risk
Automobile batteries contain
sulfuric acid. When jump start-
ing your vehicle, be careful not
to get sulfuric acid on yourself,
your clothing, or on the vehicle.
This acid is poisonous and
highly corrosive.

2,000 rpm, then start the engine
of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
If the cause of your battery discharg-ing is not apparent, you should haveyour vehicle checked by an author-ized Kia dealer.
