ing jump-starting, etc.), the fuse
for the voltage regulator may
burn through.
Connect black jumper cable
to negative terminal on donor
battery and then to negative
terminal 3 of discharged bat-
tery.
Run engine of donor vehicle
during jump-starting procedure.
Start engine of vehicle with dis-
charged battery in usual way;
if engine does not start, wait
a few minutes before repeat-
ing attempt in order to protect
starter motor and donor bat-
