134 Vehicle Care
Connect as far away from the dis-
charged battery as possible,
however at least 60 cm (24 inches).
Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine:
1. Start the engine of the vehicle
providing the jump.
2. After 5 minutes, start the other
engine. Start attempts should be
made for no longer than 15 seconds
at an interval of 1 minute.
3. Allow both engines to idle for
approx. 3 minutes with the leads
connected.
4. Switch on electrical consumers
(e.g. headlamps, heated rear
window) of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly
when removing leads.
TOWING
Towing The Vehicle
If you need to have your vehicle towed,
contact your CHEVROLET retailer or
professional towing company.
The best method is to have the vehicle
transported using a recovery vehicle.
