Connect the red positive
(+)
cable to
the positive
(+)
terminal of the vehicle
with the dead battery. Use a remote

(+)
terminal if the vehicle has
one.
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 good battery's negative
(-)
terminal.
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 part on the engine of
the vehicle with the dead battery.

Attach the 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, but the chance of sparks
getting back to the battery is much
less.
1 O.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.
