4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+)
and negative (−) terminal locations on each
vehicle.
You will not need to access your battery for
jump starting. Your vehicle has a remote
positive (+) and a remote negative (−) jump
starting terminal.
The remote positive (+) terminal is located on
the engine compartment fuse block, under a
red cap. See Engine Compartment Overview
on page 280 for more information on location.
The remote negative (−) ground terminal is a
bolt located under the metal frame that
supports the radiator. It is at the front of the
engine compartment, on the driver's side
of the vehicle, and is marked with a label that
says GND (−).
CAUTION:

An electric fan can start up even when the

CAUTION:
{
Using a match near a battery can cause
battery gas to explode. People have been
hurt doing this, and some have been
blinded. Use a flashlight if you need
more light.
Be sure the battery has enough water.
You do not need to add water to the
battery installed in your new vehicle. But
if a battery has filler caps, be sure the
right amount of fluid is there. If it is low,
add water to take care of that first. If you
do not, explosive gas could be present.
Battery fluid contains acid that can burn
you. Do not get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your eyes or on your
skin, flush the place with water and get
medical help immediately.
