Connecting the jumper cables
*
[ER11900(ALL)02/96] 1. Connect one end of the first jumper cable to the positive (+)
terminal of the discharged battery. (You can connect either
jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal, as long as you use
the same cable for both positive terminals.) Most jumper
cables have a red cable and a black cable. The red cable is
generally used for the positive terminals and the black for
the negative ones.

terminal of the booster battery.
*
[ER12100(ALL)02/96] 3. Connect one end of the second cable to the negative (s)
terminal of the booster battery — NOT to the discharged
battery.
*
[ER12200(ALL)01/96] 4. Connect the other end of the second cable to a good metallic
surface on the engine or frame of the disabled vehicle.
