6. Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive (+)

terminal of the dead battery. Use a remote

positive (+) terminal if the vehicle has one.

7. Do not 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.

Do not let the other end touch anything until the

next step. The other end of the negative (−) cable

does not 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 (45 cm) 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.

Use a remote negative (−) terminal if the vehicle

has one. Your vehicle’s remote negative (−) ground

location is for this purpose.

10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run

the engine for a while.

11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead battery.

If it will not start after a few tries, it probably needs

service.

Notice: If the jumper cables are connected or

removed in the wrong order, electrical shorting may

occur and damage the vehicle. The repairs would

not be covered by your warranty. Always connect

and remove the jumper cables in the correct

order, making sure that the cables do not touch

each other or other metal.
