Whenever working on or near a battery,

always wear suitable eye protectors (for
example, goggles or industrial safety
spectacles) and remove rings, metal
bands, or any other jewelry. Do not lean
over the battery when jump starting.

Do not attempt to jump start a frozen

battery. It could explode and cause se-
rious injury.

Your vehicle has an automatic engine

cooling fan. It could come on at any
time. Keep hands and other objects
away from it.

ure to do so could result in damage to the

trical systems (lights, heater, air conditioner,
