Default white smoke out the intake

yesterday after installing my new battery along with my manual fan switch i turned my car on and then about 1 min later it seemed that it was bogging and then a cloud of white smoke came out the intake,. like it puffed it out.. what is this a sign off? engine fried? etc etc

If it is coming out of the intake and not firing you probably have an ignition related issue, did you get any coolant on the opti?
