Before you get started, make sure both vehicles are in park. The engines should not be running during the jump-start.
To begin, connect one end of the jumper cables to the positive terminal (marked with a “+” or “P”) on the dead battery. Connect the other end to the positive terminal of the working vehicle's battery. Next, connect one end of the cable to the negative terminal (marked with a “-” or “N”) on the working vehicle's battery, and connect the other end to an unpainted metal surface away from the dead battery.
Once all cables have been connected correctly, start the running vehicle and then attempt to start the dead vehicle. If it starts, let it run for several minutes to allow the battery to charge sufficiently. Before disconnecting the jumper cables, turn off both vehicles and then disconnect them in reverse order from how you connected them. The dead battery should now be charged enough to start the vehicle.
