Jump Starting Procedure

1

Jump Starting

Securely attach the jumper cables clips so that they
do not come off when the engine vibrates. Also be
careful not to tangle the jumper cables or allow the
cable ends to touch each other while attaching or
detaching the jumper cables.

Battery performance degrades in cold conditions and
may prevent the engine from starting.

WARNING

Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking
materials away from the battery.
