A Quick 5-Step Guide to Jump-Starting Your Car

At Myraasta Car Services and Repair, we understand that a dead car battery can be a major inconvenience. That's why we're here to guide you through a quick and simple 5-step process to jump-start your car using a jump starter, ensuring you're back on the road in no time.

Step 1: Safety First

Before you begin, prioritize safety. Park both cars in a safe location, away from traffic. Turn off the ignition switch in both vehicles and engage the parking brakes. It's also crucial to wear safety glasses and gloves for added protection.

Step 2: Gather Your Tools

Ensure you have all the necessary tools on hand: a jump starter, car jump start cables, and the car's owner's manual. Myraasta Car Services recommends keeping a portable jump starter in your vehicle for emergencies.

Step 3: Position the Vehicles

Place the jump starter-equipped vehicle close enough to the dead car, ensuring the jump start cables can reach both batteries comfortably. Make sure the vehicles are not touching and that the jump starter is turned off.

Step 4: Connect the Jump Starter

Refer to your car's owner's manual for battery location and proper connection points. With the jump starter turned off, connect the red (positive) cable to the positive terminal of the dead battery and the other end to the positive terminal of the working battery. Then, connect the black (negative) cable to the negative terminal of the working battery and the other end to a metal, unpainted part of the dead car's engine block. This prevents sparks near the battery.

Step 5: Jump-Start Your Car

Once the cables are strongly connected, turn on the jump starter. Allow it to power up for a few minutes before attempting to start the dead car. Start the dead car's engine, and if successful, leave it running for a few minutes to charge the battery. Disconnect the jump starter in the reverse order of connection, and you're ready to hit the road.
