IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative (-) end of the jumper cable
from the engine ground of the vehicle with the dis-
charged battery.
2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative (-)
jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the
booster battery.
3. Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable
from the positive (+) post of the booster battery.
4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+)
jumper cable from the positive (+) post of the dis-
charged vehicle.
5. Reinstall the protective cover over the positive (+)
post of the discharged vehicle.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your vehicle
you should have the battery and charging system tested
at an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power outlets
draw power from the vehicle's battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough without engine operation, the
vehicle's battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
REFUELING IN EMERGENCY –
IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle may be equipped with a refueling funnel.
Vehicles with diesel engines will have a cap to remove
to begin the refueling process. If refueling is necessary,
while using an approved gas can, insert the refueling
funnel into the filler neck opening. Take care to open
both flappers with the funnel to avoid spills.
Diesel Fuel Cap
NOTE:
In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel door
from opening. If this occurs, lightly push on the fuel
door to break the ice buildup and re-release the fuel
door using the inside release button. Do not pry on the
door.
Refueling Funnel
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not "top off"
the fuel tank after filling.
Emergency Gas Can Refueling
Most gas cans will not open the flapper doors. A funnel
is provided to allow emergency refueling with a gas can.
See the following steps for refueling:
1. Retrieve funnel from under the right rear seat.
