If the engine does not start due to the discharge of the battery, then the battery of another car can be used to start it, connected through the connecting wires.
1. Place the vehicles close enough to each other that the connecting wires can be reached, but the vehicles do not touch each other. If they are in contact, this may create an unwanted connection on «mass». You will not be able to start your car engine, and a bad connection to «weight» may damage the electrical system.
2. Tighten the parking brake lever on both vehicles. On a vehicle with automatic transmission, set the gear selector lever to the position «R» (parking), and with mechanical - to the neutral position. Switch off the ignition.
3. Connect one end of one of the connecting wires to the positive «+» terminal of the discharged battery, and its other end to the positive «+» terminal of the battery from which the start is made.
4. Attach one end of the other connecting wire to the negative «-» terminal of the battery from which the start is made, and its other end to the engine block of the engine with a discharged battery at a point as far as possible from its battery.
