Do not attempt to push-start your vehicle. Automatic

transmissions do not have push-start capability; also, the

catalytic converter may become damaged.

Preparing your vehicle

Your battery is located in the trunk of your vehicle.

When the battery is disconnected or a new battery is installed, the

transmission must relearn its shift strategy. As a result, the transmission

may have firm and/or soft shifts. This operation is considered normal and

will not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time, the

adaptive learning process will fully update transmission operation.

1. Use only a 12–volt supply to start your vehicle.

2. Do not disconnect the battery of your disabled vehicle as this could

damage the vehicle’s electrical system. Keep the battery vent hose

attached at all times.

3. Park the booster vehicle close to the trunk of your disabled vehicle

making sure the two vehicles do not touch. Set the parking brake on

both vehicles and stay clear of the engine cooling fan and other moving

parts.

4. Check all battery terminals and remove any excessive corrosion before

you attach the battery cables. Ensure the vent caps are tight and level.

5. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect any electrical

surges. Turn all other accessories off.

Connecting the jumper cables

1. Connect the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal of

the discharged battery.
