transmission into PARK (manual
transmission in NEUTRAL) and turn the
ignition to OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all electrical
accessories.
3. If using another vehicle to jump start the
battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cables reach, set the parking brake and make
sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this
could establish a ground connection and
personal injury could result.
