moderately increased speed.

2. Start the engine of the disabled vehicle.

3. Once the disabled vehicle has been started, run both engines for an
additional three minutes before disconnecting the jumper cables.

Removing the jumper cables

Remove the jumper cables in the reverse order that they were connected.

Note: In the illustration, the vehicle on the bottom is used to designate
the assisting (boosting) battery.

1. Remove the jumper cable from
the jump starting stud.

2. Remove the jumper cable on the
negative (-) terminal of the booster
vehicle’s battery.

3. Remove the jumper cable from
the positive (+) terminal of the
booster vehicle’s battery.

4. Remove the jumper cable from

After the disabled vehicle has been
started and the jumper cables
removed, allow it to idle for several
minutes so the engine computer can
