10. Connect the other end of the
negative ( ) cable to the
negative ( ) terminal (2) on the
dead battery.
11. Now start the vehicle with the
good battery and run the
engine for a while.

the dead battery. If it will not
start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.
Caution
If the jump leads are connected
or removed in the wrong order,
electrical shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The repairs
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always connect
and remove the jump leads in the
correct order, making sure that
the cables do not touch each
other or other metal.
Jump Lead Removal
Reverse the sequence exactly when
removing the jump leads.
After starting the disabled vehicle
and removing the jump leads, allow
it to idle for several minutes.
The power windows may need to be
initialised. See "Window Indexing"
under Power Windows 0 43.
Vehicle Care

Towing the Vehicle

Caution
Incorrectly towing a disabled
vehicle may cause damage. The
damage would not be covered by
the vehicle warranty.
Do not lash or hook to
suspension components. Use the
proper straps around the tyres to
secure the vehicle.
Use only a flatbed tow truck for
towing a disabled vehicle. Never
use a sling type lift or damage will
occur. Use ramps to help reduce
approach angles if necessary.
A towed vehicle should have its
drive wheels off the ground. Consult
a professional towing service if the
disabled vehicle must be towed.
