If you cannot start the engine because of low
battery energy, you can use the jumper cable to
connect with another vehicle’s battery to start the
engine.
Caution
When jump starting, two cars cannot
contact with each other. Otherwise, once
the positive terminals of the two batteries
are connected, the current is turned on
immediately.
