OPERATION

To start an engine with a weak battery

WARNING!

Lead-acid batteries generate explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame and smoking materials away from batteries. Always wear eye protection when around batteries.

If your battery is too weak to start the engine, it should be recharged. (See “Battery” on page 36).

If “jumper cables” are used for emergency starting, follow this procedure:

To attach jumper cables

• Connect each end of the RED cable to the POSITIVE (+) terminal on each battery, taking care not to short against chassis.
