Lead connection order:

terminal of the booster battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to
the positive terminal of the discharged
battery.
3. Connect the black lead to the negative
terminal of the booster battery.

to a vehicle grounding point, such as the
engine block or an engine mounting bolt.
Connect as far away from the discharged
battery as possible, however at least
60 cm (24 inches).
Route the leads so that they cannot catch
on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine:

Start attempts should be made for no
longer than 15 seconds at an interval of
1 minute.
3. Allow both engines to idle for approx.
3 minutes with the leads connected.

headlights, heated rear window) of the
vehicle receiving the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when
removing leads.
Towing the Vehicle
Caution
Incorrectly towing a disabled vehicle may
cause damage. The damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Do not lash or hook to suspension
components. Use the proper straps
around the tires to secure the vehicle.
Use only a flatbed tow truck for towing a
disabled vehicle. Never use a sling type lift
or damage will occur. Use ramps to help
reduce approach angles if necessary.
A towed vehicle should have its drive wheels
off the ground.
Consult a professional towing service if the
disabled vehicle must be towed.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be temporarily
towed by a rope secured to the emergency
towing eye.
