If the battery of a vehicle equipped with

the

Intelligent

Key

system

is

dis-

charged, the ignition switch cannot be
moved from the LOCK position, even
using the mechanical key. Connect the
jumper cables to another vehicle, as in
the case of a discharged battery, and
then the ignition knob can be moved
from the LOCK position. Then, jump
start the vehicle.

WARNING

Always follow the instructions below.
Failure to do so could result in damage to
the charging system and cause personal
injury.

1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle,

position the two vehicles to bring their bat-
teries near each other.

Do not allow the two vehicles to touch.

2. Apply the parking brake. Move the shift se-

lector to N (Neutral) (manual transmission)
or to P (Park) (CVT). Switch off all unneces-
sary electrical systems (lights, heater, air
conditioner, etc.).

3. Remove the vent caps on the battery (if so

equipped). Cover the battery with an old
cloth to reduce the explosion hazard.

4. Connect the jumper cables in the sequence

illustrated (
