Towing The Vehicle - Cadillac 2015 SRX Owner's Manual

9. Connect the other end of the
negative (-) cable away from the
dead battery, but not near
engine parts that move. The
electrical connection is just as
good there, and the chance of
sparks getting back to the
battery is much less.
Your vehicle has a remote (-)
terminal for this purpose.
10. Now start the vehicle with the
good battery and run the
engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle that had
the dead battery. If it will not
start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.
Caution
If the jump leads are connected
or removed in the wrong order,
electrical shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The repairs
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Always connect
and remove the jump leads in the
correct order, making sure that
the cables do not touch each
other or other metal.
Jump Lead Removal
Reverse the sequence exactly when
removing the jump leads.
