WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

JUMP STARTING
WARNING:
The gas produced by the battery
during the jump-start operation is
highly explosive. If these instruc-
tions are not followed exactly, seri-
ous personal injury and damage to
the vehicle may occur! If you are
not sure how to follow this proce-
dure, seek qualified assistance.
Automobile batteries contain sul-
furic acid. This is poisonous and
highly corrosive. When jump start-
ing, wear protective glasses and be
careful not to get acid on yourself,
your clothing or on the car.
3. Attach the clamps of the jumper
cable in the exact order shown in the
illustration. That is, first, attach one
clamp of the jumper cable to the
positive (+) post or cable of the
discharged battery. Then attach the
other end of the same cable to the
positive (+) post or cable of the
booster battery. Next, using the other
cable, attach one clamp to the nega-
tive (-) post or cable of the booster
battery. Then attach the other end of
that cable to a solid metal part of the
vehicle away from the battery. Do
not connect the cable to any moving
part.
4. Start the engine in the car with the
booster battery and let it run for a
few minutes. This will help to assure
that the booster battery is fully
charged. During the jumping opera-
tion, run the engine in this vehicle at
about 2,000 rpm.
5. Start the engine in the car with the
discharged battery using the nor-
mal starting procedure. After the
engine starts, leave the jumper
cables connected and let the engine
run at fast idle or about 2,000 rpm
for several minutes.

o If you should accidentally get acid on
your skin or in your eyes, immedi-
ately remove any contaminated cloth-
ing and flush the area with clear
water for at least 15 minutes. Then
promptly obtain medical attention. If
you must be transported to an emer-
gency facility, continue to apply wa-
ter to the affected area with a sponge
or cloth.
o The gas produced by the battery
during the jump-start operation is
highly explosive. Do not smoke or
allow a spark or open flame in the
vicinity.
o The battery being used to provide
the jump start must be 12-volts. If
you cannot determine that it is a 12-
volt battery, do not attempt to use it
for the jump start.
o To jump start a car with a discharged
battery, follow this procedure ex-
actly:
1. If the booster battery is installed in
another vehicle, be sure the two
vehicles are not touching.
2. Turn off all unnecessary lights and
accessories in both vehicles.
