Connect the leads in the order shown in the
picture:
1. Connect one end of the first jump lead to
the positive terminal 1 of the battery
providing the jump start (identified by
“+” sign on battery case or terminal).
2. Connect the other end of this lead to the
jump start terminal 2 of the vehicle with
the discharged battery.
3. Connect the first end of the other jump
lead to the negative terminal 3 of the
battery providing the start ("-" sign).
4. Connect the other end of the second
jump lead 4 to ground on the other
vehicle, e.g. engine block.
z Do not connect leads to negative
terminal of discharged battery!
z The connection point should be as far
away from the discharged battery as
possible.

catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.

jump start can be allowed to run during
starting. Attempts to start the engine of
the vehicle with the discharged battery
should be made at intervals of one

position. Switch on the ignition to release
the steering column lock and to permit the
