WARNING
An electric fan can start up even
when the engine is not running
and can injure you. Keep hands,
clothing and tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
5. The remote positive (+)
terminal (1) is located on the
underhood fuse block, on the
driver side. Lift the red cap to
uncover the terminal.
The remote negative ( )
terminal (2) is a stud behind the
metal tab stamped with GND ( )
near the driver side strut tower.
6. The jumper cables should be in
good working condition with no
loose or missing insulation. The
vehicles could be damaged if
they are not.
7. Connect the red positive (+)
cable to the positive (+) terminal
on the vehicle with the dead
battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
8. Do not let the other end touch
metal. Connect it to the
positive (+) terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
9. Connect the black negative ( )
cable to the negative ( ) terminal
of the good battery. Use a
remote negative ( ) terminal if
the vehicle has one.

anything until the next step. The

battery. It goes to a heavy,
unpainted metal engine part or
to a remote negative ( ) terminal
on the vehicle with the dead
battery.
10. Connect the other end of the
negative ( ) cable away from
the dead battery, but not near
engine parts that move.
