8. Now connect the black negative (−) cable to

the negative (−) terminal of the good battery.

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.

9. Connect the other end of the negative (−) 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,

and the chance of sparks getting back to the

battery is much less.

If the security light ﬂashes, wait until the light

stops ﬂashing.

10. Now start the vehicle with the good battery

and run the engine for a while.

11. Try to start the vehicle that had the dead

battery. If it will not start after a few tries, it

probably needs service.

Notice: If the jumper cables are connected or

removed in the wrong order, electrical

shorting may occur and damage the vehicle.

The repairs would not be covered by your

warranty. Always connect and remove

the jumper cables in the correct order, making

sure that the cables do not touch each other

or other metal.
