Batteries-Connecting BoosterNOTE: 6.8 L Engines: Jump starting at temperatures below 0°C (32°F) with a system greater than 12 volts is not recommended, since glow plugs will not operate if Engine Control Unit controller (A00/ECU) detects a voltage greater than 14 volts. Cold weather starting can be easier by connecting an additional 12-volt battery in parallel.
IMPORTANT: Never connect jumper cables with key switch ON. Never jump-start with more than 12 volts. Remove protective caps (A). First jumper cable must first be connected to positive (+) post of booster battery. Connect other end of positive (+) post (B) to machine battery. Second jumper cable must first be connected to negative (-) post of booster battery. Connect other end of negative (-) post (C) to machine battery. |
