CONNECTING THE BOOSTER CABLES

Always adopt the following procedure:

Connect the RED booster cable between the

positive (+) terminal of the donor battery and

the positive (+) terminal of the discharged

battery.

Connect the BLACK booster cable from the

negative (-) terminal of the donor battery to a

good earth point (e.g. an engine mounting or

other unpainted surface) away from the battery

and away from fuel and brake lines on the

disabled vehicle (lug on alternator casting

shown in illustration).

WARNING

For safety reasons:

•

DO NOT connect the BLACK cable to the

negative terminal of the discharged

battery - if in doubt, seek qualified

assistance.

•

ENSURE that each connection is securely

made and that there is no risk of the clips

accidentally slipping or being pulled from

the battery terminals - this could cause

sparking, which could lead to fire or

explosion.

Check that the cables are clear of any moving

parts of both engines, then start the engine of

the donor vehicle and allow it to idle for a few

minutes.

Now start the vehicle with the discharged

battery. Once both engines are running

normally, allow them to idle for two minutes

before switching off the engine of the donor

vehicle.

DO NOT switch on any electrical circuits on the

previously disabled vehicle until AFTER the

booster cables have been removed.

Disconnecting the booster cables must be an

EXACT reversal of the procedure used to

connect them, i.e: disconnect the BLACK cable

from the earth point on the disabled vehicle

FIRST.
