7. Don’t let the other end
touch metal. Connect it
to the positive (+)
terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote
positive (+) terminal
if the vehicle has one.
8. Now connect the black
negative (
−
) cable to
the negative (
−
)
terminal of the good
battery. Use a remote
negative (
−
) terminal
if the vehicle has one.
Don’t let the other end touch anything until the next
step. The other end of the negative (
−
) cable doesn’t
go to the dead battery. It goes to a heavy, unpainted
metal engine part or to a remote negative (
−
)
terminal on the vehicle with the dead battery.
9. Connect the other end of the negative (
−
) cable at
least 18 inches(45cm) away from the dead battery,
but not near engine parts that move. The electrical
connection is just as good there, and the chance
of sparks getting back to the battery is much less.
10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for a while.
11. Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery. If it
won’t start after a few tries, it probably needs
service.
Notice: If the jumper cables are removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting may occur and
damage the vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Remove the jumper
cables in the correct order, making sure that the
cables do not touch each other or other metal.
