1994 Volvo 850
pg. 4:14 Jump starting
CAUTION: Improper hook-up of jumper cables or use of other than 12-volt batteries could result in
damage to equipment and/or battery.
If the booster battery to be used is in another car, check that the cars are not touching to prevent
premature completion of negative circuit. Note the position of the battery terminals and using jumper
cables:
● First connect the booster battery positive (+) terminal (1) to car battery positive (+) terminal (2).
● Then connect the booster battery negative (-) terminal (3) to a stationary solid metal part on the
engine at a point away from the battery (4).
Do not connect booster cable to any part of fuel system or any moving parts. Avoid touching hot
manifolds.
After the engine has started, first remove the negative (-) terminal jumper cable. Then remove the
positive (+) terminal jumper cable.
