Honda CR-V: Jump Starting / Jump Starting Procedure
Turn off the power to electric devices, such as the audio and lights. Turn
off the
engine, then open the hood.
- Open the terminal cover on your vehicle’s
battery positive terminal.
- Connect the first jumper cable to your
vehicle's battery terminal.
- Connect the other end of the first jumper
cable to the booster battery
terminal.
- Use a 12-volt booster battery only.
- When using an automotive battery
charger to boost your 12-volt battery,
select a lower charging voltage than
15-volts. Check the charger manual for
the proper setting.
- Connect the second jumper cable to the
booster battery terminal.
- Connect the other end of the second
jumper cable to the engine mounting bolt
(as shown). Do not connect this jumper
cable to any other part.
- If your vehicle is connected to another
vehicle, start the assisting vehicle's engine
and increase its rpm slightly.
- Attempt to start your vehicle's engine. If it
turns over slowly, check that the jumper
cables have good metal-to-metal contact.
WARNING
A battery can explode if you do not follow
the correct procedure, seriously injuring
anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking
materials away from the battery.
Securely attach the jumper cables clips so that they
do not come off when the engine vibrates. Also be
careful not to tangle the jumper cables or allow the
cable ends to touch each other while attaching or
detaching the jumper cables.
Battery performance degrades in cold conditions and
may prevent the engine from starting.
Once your vehicle's engine has started, remove the jumper cables in the
following
order:
Disconnect the jumper cable from your vehicle's ground.
Disconnect the other end of the jumper cable from the booster battery
terminal...
