THE AUTOMOBILE bat-
tery need not be a source of
anxiety. Knowledge of sim-
ple and safe steps for
jump-starting the battery is
essential for motorists con-
cerned about winter car
care.

Several precautionary
measures should be followed
when jump-starting a_bat-
tery. Position vehicles so
that they do not touch each

other. Check to see that
both batteries are of the
same voltage.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Turn off both vehicles’
engines. Set the parking
brakes on each vehicle.
Place automatic transmis-
sion in park, standard
transmissions in neutral.

Be sure vent caps are tight
and level. Place a damp
cloth over the vents of both
batteries. With safety
precautions taken care of,
the stalled battery is ready
for jump-starting (see cor-
responding diagram).

1. Connect positive (+)
booster cable to positive
post of dead battery. (The
positive post is wired to the
starter or solenoid).

2. Connect other end of
same cable to same marked
post (positive) of booster
battery.

3. Connect second booster
cable (negative) to other
post of booster battery.

4. Make final booster
cable connection on engine
block of stalled vehicle away
from battery,

START SAFELY

5. Start the booster vehi-
cle and let it run for a few
minutes.

6. Start the disabled vehi-
cle, then remove cables in
reverse order of connection.

Further safety precautions
should be followed when
working on or in the vicinity
of the automobile.

© Whenever you work
near a battery, protect your
eyes with safety goggles.

e Never light a match or
smoke when working under
the hood of a car.

° Be careful that metallic
objects such as tools do not
fall on battery terminals.
This could cause sparks,
leading to a battery explo-
sion,

© Never Jean over the bat-
tery during the charging,
testing or jump-starting.

Your car heater won't last forever. If you are getting into your car on these cooler fall mornings
and finding that your windows will not clear up, it could well be due to a leaking heater. This
has the effect of a steaming kettle beneath your dashboard, and no amount of wiping. and fiddl-
ing with your defroster will fix it. Your cooling system should be serviced every " years to
prevent unnecessary damage.

Come in for a HEATER TUNE-UP and enjoy clear sailing this fall and winter.
