How to jump-start a car safely

Do it in the right order to avoid damage.

Steps

  • Red clip to dead battery positive
  • Other red to good battery positive
  • Black to good battery negative
  • Last black to bare metal on the dead car, away from the battery
  • Start the good car, wait 2 minutes, then start the dead car
  • Remove in reverse order
