The Supplemental Restraint System is grounded under the driver's seat. Do not loosen the two screws grounding the unit. Do not ground other electrical components using these screws or any other points near them. Faults in the system could occur if it is improperly grounded.

Jump starting

CAUTION: Improper hook-up of jumper cables or the use of other than 12 volt batteries could result in damage to equipment and/or battery.

Check that cars are not touching to prevent premature completion of negative circuit.

Note the position of the battery terminals. When using jumper cables, first connect booster battery positive (+) terminal to car battery positive (+) terminal. Then connect booster battery negative (-) terminal to a stationary solid metal part on the engine at a point away from the battery. Do not connect booster cable to any part of fuel system or any moving parts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
