4. Open the hoods and locate the positive (+) and negative (-) terminal locations on the other vehicle. Your vehicle has a remote positive (+) jump starting terminal and a remote negative (-) jump starting terminal. You should always use these remote terminals instead of the terminals on your battery. The remote positive (+) terminal is located behind a red plastic cover near the engine accessory drive bracket on the driver's side of the vehicle. To uncover the remote positive (+) terminal, open the red plastic cover. The remote negative (-) terminal is located on the engine accessory drive bracket. It is marked "GND." See "Engine Compartment Overview" in the Index for more information on location. CAUTION: Using a match near a battery can cause battery gas to explode. People have been hurt doing this, and some have been blinded. Use a flashlight if you need more light. Be sure the battery has enough water. You don't need to add water to the ACDelcoR battery installed in every new GM vehicle. But if a battery has filler caps, be sure the right amount of fluid is there. If it is low, add water to take care of that first. If you don't, explosive gas could be present. Battery fluid contains acid that can burn you. Don't get it on you. If you accidentally get it in your eyes or on your skin, flush the place with water and get medical help immediately. 5-5
