4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+) and
negative (
−
) terminal locations on the other
vehicle. Your vehicle has a remote positive (+) jump
starting terminal and a remote negative (
−
) jump
starting terminal.
The remote positive (+)
terminal is located in the
engine compartment
on the passenger’s side of
the vehicle. A second
remote positive (+) terminal
is located on the rear
underseat fuse block.
Lift the red plastic cap to
access the terminal.
The remote negative (
−
) terminal is located near
the power steering fluid reservoir. It is marked
“GND (
−
).” See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 5-12 for more information on location.
You will not see the battery of your vehicle under
the hood. It is located under the rear passenger’s
seat. You will not need to access the battery
for jump starting. The remote positive (+) terminal
is for that purpose.
{ CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the
engine is not running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
{ CAUTION:
Using a match near a battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have been hurt doing
this, and some have been blinded. Use a
flashlight if you need more light.
Be sure the battery has enough water. You do
not need to add water to the ACDelco
® battery
installed in your new vehicle. But if a battery
has filler caps, be sure the right amount of fluid
is there. If it is low, add water to take care of
that first. If you do not, explosive gas could be
present.
