Section 5
To jump start your vehicle,
follow these steps:
NOTICE
Ignoring these steps could
result in costly damage to your
vehicle.
The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
1. Get the vehicles close enough
so the jumper cables can
reach. Be sure the vehicles
aren't touching each other.
CAUTION
To ensure that the vehicles do
not roll, set the parking brake
firmly on both vehicles involved
in the jump starting procedure.
Shift an automatic transmission
into P (Park) and a manual
transmission into N (Neutral)
before setting the parking
brake.
2. Turn off the ignition on both
vehicles. Turn off the radios
and all lights that aren't
needed.
NOTICE
If you leave the radio or other
accessories on, they could be
badly damaged.
The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty.
CAUTION
An electric cooling fan can start
even if the engine is not
running. Be careful around any
underhood electric fan.
