each battery.

Check that the jumper cables do not have lose
missing insulation. If they do, you could get a
shock. The vehicles could be damaged, too.
Before you connect the cables, here are some
basic things you should know. Positive(+)will go
to positive(+)and negative(-)will go to negative(­)or a metal engine part. Do not connect(+) to (-)
or you will get a short that would damage the
battery and maybe other parts, too.

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

Don’t let the other end touch metal. It

Now start the vehicle with the good battery

and run the engine for a while.

Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
