3. Clip one end of the second jumper cable
to the negative terminal of the powered
battery. (There is a mark on the
battery housing or the terminal)
4. Select the ground contact away from the
battery on the unpowered vehicle, such
as the steel bolts of the engine bracket.
Connect the other end of the second
cable to the ground contact.
5. While jump starting, start the engine of
the vehicle providing the jump start
power supply. Try to start the engine of
the vehicle that has no electricity within
one minute, and do not turn the ignition
key more than five seconds each time.
After starting, keep the rotation speed at
2000 rpm for several minutes
6. Remove the jumper cable carefully in
reverse order, remove the negative cable
first and then the positive cable.
Do not use the battery as a jump source for
other appliances for a long time. Otherwise,
it is easy to make the battery lose
electricity and may even cause safety
accidents.
Warning
The last connection to the vehicle to be
charged should NOT be made to the
negative (-) battery terminal.
Attach the clamp for this last connection
to a steel bracket bolted to the engine
block.
This last connection should be as far
away from the battery as possible.
Connecting the jumper cable to the
negative terminal of the discharged
battery could result in arcing and
possibly a battery explosion.
Serious personal injury or vehicle damage
can result.
