What to do in an emergency

JUMP STARTING

Jump starting can be dangerous if done

incorrectly. Follow the jump starting pro-

cedure in this section to avoid serious

injury or damage to your vehicle. If in

doubt about how to properly jump start

your vehicle, we strongly recommend

that you have a service technician or tow-

ing service do it for you.

WARNING

If acid gets into your eyes, flush

your eyes with clean water for at

least 15 minutes and get immediate

medical attention. If acid gets on

your skin, thoroughly wash the

area. If you feel pain or a burning

sensation, get medical attention

immediately.

• When lifting a plastic-cased bat-

tery, excessive pressure on the

case may cause battery acid to

leak. Lift with a battery carrier or

with your hands on opposite cor-

ners.

• Do not attempt to jump start your

vehicle if your battery is frozen.

• NEVER attempt to recharge the

battery when the vehicle’s battery

cables are connected to the bat-

tery.

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or

DEATH to you or bystanders,

always follow these precautions

when working near or handling the

battery:

Always read and follow

instructions carefully when

handling a battery.

Wear

eye

protection

designed to protect the

eyes from acid splashes.

Keep all flames, sparks, or

smoking materials away

from the battery.

Hydrogen is always present

in battery cells, is highly

combustible, and may

explode if ignited.

Keep batteries out of reach

of children.

• The electrical ignition system

works with high voltage. NEVER

touch these components with the

engine running or when the igni-

tion switch is in the ON position.

Batteries contain sulfuric

acid which is highly corro-

sive. Do not allow acid to

contact your eyes, skin or

clothing.
