grounded, three-wire extension cord.
The engine block heater must be plugged in at least one

hour to have an adequate warming effect on the engine.
The engine block heater cord is routed under the hood on

the driver side of the vehicle. It has a removable cap that

is located near the air box.

WARNING!

Remember to disconnect the engine block heater
cord before driving. Damage to the 110-115 Volt
electrical cord could cause electrocution.
