Jump starting – Acura 2005 RSX - Owner's Manual User Manual
Page 201
Although this seems like a simple
procedure, you should take several
precautions.
To jump start your vehicle:
Open the hood, and check the
physical condition of the battery.
In very cold weather, check the
condition of the electrolyte. If it
seems slushy or frozen, do not try
jump starting until it thaws.
You cannot start your vehicle with an
automatic transmission by pushing
or pulling it.
Connect one jumper cable to the
positive (
) terminal on your
battery. Connect the other end to
the positive (
) terminal on the
booster battery.
Turn off all the electrical
accessories: heater, A/C, audio
system, lights, etc.
Put the transmission in Neutral
(manual) or Park (automatic), and
set the parking brake.

Attempting to jump start with a f rozen
battery can cause it to rupture.
