Do not connect the jumper cable to the negative (-) post of the discharged battery. The
resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury. Only use the specific ground point, do not use any other exposed metal
parts.
10. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.
11. Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative (-) end of the jumper cable from the remote negative (-) post
of the vehicle with the discharged 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 remote positive
(+) post of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the battery and
charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.
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.
TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This vehicle must be towed with all four wheels OFF
the ground using a flatbed. Always comply with applicable state or local towing
ordinances.
• Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission damage.
Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing. When securing the
vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension components.
Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
