Connect each end of the red cable to the POSITIVE pole

(+) on each battery, exercise care not to short circuit any of the ends against the chassis.

Connect one end of the black cable to the NEGATIVE pole (-) on the fully charged battery.

Connect the other end of the black cable to a good CHASSIS EARTH, away from the fuel tank and the battery.

Finally the RED cable from both batteries.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Never use a boost charger/ start booster.

Use only conventional battery chargers. Always disconnect the charger before starting the engine. So called boost chargers/start boosters must never be used.
