1. Both batteries must be 12V. The
capacity (Ah) of the battery supply-
ing current should not be signifi-
cantly below that of the discharged
battery.
2. Use only heavy-duty jumper cables.
3. A discharged battery can freeze. A
frozen battery must be thawed out
before connecting the jumper cables.
4. There should be no contact be-
tween the two vehicles; otherwise
current may flow when the positive
terminal is connected.
5. The discharged battery must be
correctly connected to the vehicle
electrical system.
6. Run the engine of the vehicle sup-
plying current.
7. Connect the jumper cables as fol-
lows:
(1) Connect one end of one jumper
cable to the positive terminal of
the flat battery, and the other
end to the positive terminal of
the booster battery.
(2) Connect one end of the other
jumper cable to the negative ter-
minal of the booster battery, and

the other end to the engine block
of the vehicle with the flat battery
at the point farthest from the
battery.
!
CAUTION:
o Do not allow the jumper cable
clips to touch one another.
o Do not connect the jumper cable
to the negative terminal of the
flat battery.
The battery generates explosive
gas, and a spark caused when
the jumper cable is disconnected
from the negative terminal could
ignite this gas and cause an ex-
plosion.
o Be careful that the jumper cable
becomes not caught in the cool-
ing fan, etc.
8. Start engine as described "Starting
the engine" in section 3.
9. After the engine is started, discon-
nect the cables in the reverse order.
IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

IF THE ENGINE OVERHEATS

D030A01TB-AAT
If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knock-
ing and the engine is probably too hot.
If this happens to you, you should:
1. Pull off the road and stop as soon as
it is safe to do so.
2. Place the gear selector lever in "P"
(automatic transmission), or neutral
(manual transmission) and set the
parking brake. If the air conditioning
is on, turn it off.
3. If engine coolant is running out un-
der the car or steam is coming out
from the hood, stop the engine. Do
not open the hood until the engine
coolant has stopped running or the
steaming has stopped. If there is no
visible loss of engine coolant and no
steam, leave the engine running
and check to be sure the engine
cooling fan is operating. If the fan is
not running, turn the engine off.
