WARNING
Any procedure other than the preceding could
result in:
(1) personal injury caused by electrolyte
squirting out the battery vents,
(2) personal injury or property damage due
to battery explosion,
(3) damage to the charging system of the
booster vehicle or of the immobilized
vehicle.
Do not attempt to jump start a vehicle having a
frozen battery because the battery may rupture
or explode. If a frozen battery is suspected,
examine all fill vents on the battery. If ice can
be seen or if the electrolyte fluid cannot be
seen, do not attempt to start with jumper
cables as long as the battery remains frozen.
Troubleshooting, Adjustment & Service

WARNING
For your personal safety, use extreme care
when jump starting. Never expose battery to
open flame or electric spark – battery action
generates hydrogen gas which is flammable
and explosive. Do not allow battery acid to
contact skin, eyes, fabrics, or painted surfaces.
Batteries contain a sulfuric acid solution which
can cause serious personal injury or property
damage.
When removing or installing battery cables,
disconnect the negative cable FIRST and
reconnect it LAST. If not done in this order, the
positive terminal can be shorted to the frame
by a tool.
To avoid engine damage, do not disconnect
battery while engine is running. Be sure
terminal connections are tight before starting.
