Preparing your vehicle

If your low voltage (underhood) battery becomes disconnected or

disabled for any reason, the vehicle controller must relearn the engine’s

operating characteristics in order to operate it at maximum efficiency.

This relearning process occurs the first time the vehicle is driven after

reconnecting the low voltage battery. If the learning procedure does not

have time to complete during the drive, the engine will continue to

operate for 3-5 seconds after you turn the ignition off to complete the

relearning process. This is a normal condition and will not re-occur until

the low voltage battery is disconnected again. The brake system must

also be reset. Refer to Low voltage (underhood) battery in the

Maintenance and Specification chapter for more information.

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

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

damage the vehicle’s electrical system.

3. Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the 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 that vent caps are tight and level.

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

surges. Turn all other accessories off.
