6. Connect the other end of the red
positive (+) cable to the
positive (+) terminal of the good
battery. 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.
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 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.
Reverse the sequence exactly when
removing the jumper cables.
Have the vehicle towed on a wheel
lift tow truck. A flatbed car carrier
could damage the vehicle. The
wheel lift tow truck must raise the
rear of the vehicle and wheel dollies
must be used to lift the front wheels
off the ground.
Consult your dealer or a
professional towing service if the
disabled vehicle must be towed.
