Emergency Starting
Starting a Flooded Engine
Jump-Starting
If the engine fails to start, it may be
flooded (excessive fuel in the engine).
The battery is in the trunk.
Jump-starting is dangerous if done
incorrectly. So follow the procedure
carefully. If you feel unsure about jump-
starting, we strongly recommend that you
have a competent service technician do
the work.
Follow this procedure:
1.
2.
Depress the accelerator all the way and
hold it there.
Turn the ignition switch to the START
position and hold it therefor up to 10
seconds. If the engine starts, release the
key and accelerator immediately
because the engine will suddenly rev
up.
WARNING
Battery-Related Explosion:
Flames and sparks near open battery
cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal battery
operation, could ignite and cause the
battery to explode. An exploding
battery can cause serious burns and
injuries. Keep all flames, including
cigarettes, and sparks away from
open battery cells.
3.
If the engine fails to start, crank it
without using the acceleratorfor up
to 10 seconds.
Frozen Battery:
Jump-starting a frozen battery is
dangerous. It may rupture or explode,
causing serious injury.
Dont jump-start a frozen battery .
CAUTION
Use only a 12 V booster system. You
can damage a 12 V starter, ignition
system, and other electrical parts
beyond repair with a 24 V power
supply (two 12 V batteries in series or
a 24 V motor generator set).

I am so thankful for this manual. I just bought this car for my significant other's retirement gift.
