If the booster battery is installed in another vehicle, make sure the vehicles do not touch. Turn off all unnecessary lights and accessories.
If necessary, remove all vent plugs from the booster and discharged batteries. Place a cloth over the open vents on the batteries. (This helps reduce the risk of explosion, injury and burns).
If the engine of the vehicle with the booster battery does not run, start it and let it run for a few minutes. When starting with the booster battery, the engine should run at approximately 2000 rpm with the accelerator pedal lightly depressed.
Connect the cables in the order a, b, c, d:
- a. Connect the positive (red) jumper cable clamp to the positive (+) terminal on the dead battery.
- b. Connect the clamp on the other end of the positive (red) jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal on the booster battery.
- c. Connect the negative (black) jumper cable clamp to the negative (-) terminal on the booster battery.
- d. Connect the clamp on the other end of the negative (black) cable to a solid, stationary, unpainted, metal point on the vehicle with the dead battery.

The recommended connection points are shown in the following figures.

Do not connect the cable to or near any part that moves when the engine is cranked. To avoid serious injury, do not lean over the battery when making connections or allow the jumper cables or clamps to touch anything other than the proper battery terminals and ground.
Start the engine in the normal way. Once started, it should run for a few minutes at approximately 2000 rpm with the accelerator pedal lightly depressed.
Carefully disconnect the cables in exactly the reverse order: negative cable, then positive cable.
Carefully dispose of fabrics covering batteries - they may contain sulfuric acid.
If the ventilation plugs were removed, then reinstall them all.
If the cause of the battery discharge is not identified (for example, the lights were left on), it needs to be checked.
