6. Once the engine is started, disconnect 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 dis-

charged vehicle.

5. Close the cover of the Front Power Distribution Cen-

ter.

If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle

you should have the battery and charging system in-

spected at your authorized dealer.

CAUTION!

Accessories plugged into the vehicle power outlets
draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular phones, 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.
