Jump Starting

Although this seems like a simple

procedure, you should take several

precautions.

A battery can explode if you do

not follow the correct

procedure, seriously injuring

anyone nearby.

Keep all sparks, open flames,

and smoking materials away

from the battery.

You cannot start your vehicle by

pushing or pulling it.

To Jump Start Your Vehicle:

1. Open the hood, and check the

physical condition of the battery.

In very cold weather, check the

condition of the electrolyte. If it

seems slushy or frozen, do not try

jump starting until it thaws.

If a battery sits in extreme cold, the

electrolyte inside can freeze. Attempting

to jump start with a frozen battery can

cause it to rupture.

2. Turn off all the electrical

accessories: heater, A/C, climate

control, audio system, lights, etc.

Put the transmission in neutral or

Park, and set the parking brake.

If the Engine Won't Start, Jump Starting
