How to Jump-Start a Car
Using jumper cables can be dangerous, but it's not difficult to do it safely if you know how. For a safe jump-start, follow these step-by-step instructions.
1. Place both cars in "park" or in neutral with their ignitions turned off.
2. Open both cars' bonnets and look for the positive terminals on both batteries. A positive terminal will have a plus (+) sign, maybe a red ring around the battery post or will be the larger of the two terminals.
3. Connect each of the red clips of the jumper cables to the positive terminals on each battery.
4. Connect one of the black clips to the negative battery terminal on the other person's car and the other black clip to the unpainted non-aluminum metal surface on your car.
5. After it's all hooked up, the other person should start his car.

Items to Carry in Your Car
Preparation includes know-how as well as a few essential items. You should never leave home without a spare tire, jack and wheel brace, and a can of inflatable tire sealant. A few other important items are an extra litre of oil and water, a few rags, paper towels and a flashlight with fresh batteries.
A set of jumper cables can come in handy, too. It can be hard just to find someone who'll give you a jump-start, so you don't want to have to go through the trouble to find and borrow cables, too.
