JUMP STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

The gases around the battery can explode if
exposed to flames, sparks, or lit cigarettes.

An explosion could result in injury or vehicle
damage.

Batteries contain sulfuric acid which can
burn skin, eyes and clothing, if contacted.

Do not attempt to push-start your vehicle.
Automatic transmissions do not have
push-start capability; also, the catalytic
converter may become damaged.

Preparing your vehicle

When the battery is disconnected or a new battery is
installed, the transmission must relearn its shift
strategy. As a result, the transmission may have firm
and/or soft shifts. This operation is considered
normal and will not affect function or durability of
the transmission. Over time, the adaptive learning
process will fully update transmission operation.
