WARNING!

When temperatures are below the freezing point,

electrolyte in a discharged battery may freeze. Do
not attempt jump-starting because the battery
could rupture or explode and cause personal injury.
Battery temperature must be brought above the
freezing point before attempting a jump-start.

Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan when-

ever the hood is raised. It can start anytime the
ignition switch is on. You can be injured by moving
fan blades.

Remove any metal jewelry such as watch bands or

bracelets that might make an inadvertent electrical
contact. You could be seriously injured.

WARNING! (Continued)

Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn your

skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas which is
flammable and explosive. Keep open flames or
sparks away from the battery.

Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this

could establish a ground connection and personal
injury could result.

Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-) of

the discharged battery. The resulting electrical
spark could cause the battery to explode and could
result in personal injury.
