WARNING
Fans or other moving engine
parts can injure you badly. Keep
your hands away from moving
parts once the engine is running.
5. Connect one end of the red
positive (+) cable to the jump
start positive (+) post (A). Use a
remote positive (+) terminal if the
vehicle has one.
6. Do not let the other end of the
red positive (+) cable touch
metal. Connect it to the
positive (+) terminal of the good
battery (B). Use a remote
positive (+) terminal if the vehicle
has one.
7. Connect one end of the black
negative (
–
) cable to the
negative (
–
) terminal of the
good battery (C). 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.
8. Connect the other end of the
black negative (
–
) cable to an
unpainted heavy metal engine
part (D) away from the dead
battery, but not near engine
parts that move.
9. Start the engine in the vehicle
with the good battery and run
the engine at idle speed for at
least four minutes.
10. Try to start the vehicle that had
the dead battery. If it will not
start after a few tries, it
probably needs service.
