To start your engine with a booster battery, the

instructions and precautions below must be

followed.

WARNING

¼ If done incorrectly, jump starting can

lead to a battery explosion, resulting
in severe injury or death. It could also
damage your vehicle.

¼ Explosive hydrogen gas is always

present in the vicinity of the battery.
Keep all sparks and flames away
from the battery.

¼ Do not allow battery fluid to come

into contact with eyes, skin, cloth or
painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a
corrosive sulphuric acid solution
which can cause severe burns. If the
fluid should come into contact with
anything, immediately flush the con-
tacted area with water.

¼ Keep battery out of the reach of

children.

¼ The booster battery must be rated at

12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.

¼ Whenever working on or near a bat-

tery, always wear suitable eye protec-
tors (for example, goggles or indus-
trial safety spectacles) and remove
rings, metal bands, or any other jew-
elry. Do not lean over the battery
when jump starting.

¼ Do not attempt to jump start a frozen

battery. It could explode and cause
serious injury.

¼ Your vehicle has an automatic en-

gine cooling fan. It could come on at
any time. Keep hands and other ob-
jects away from it.
