How to jump start
1. Open the hood.
2. Remove the maintenance panel by pulling it upwards to release the trim clips that hold it in place.
3. If equipped with a HEPA filter, carefully fold the HEPA filter gasket towards the front of the vehicle to gain access to the low voltage jump post.

5. The HEPA filter bolt (as shown in the following image to the right) serves as the negative jump post. Connect the external low voltage power supply’s black negative (-) cable the black negative (-) jump post.
6. Turn on the external power supply (refer to the manufacturer’s instructions) for 20-30 seconds.
7. Open the driver door and wait two minutes.
8. Ensure the vehicle is able to shift into Drive.
