• Jump Starter Box
  or

5. Lift up the cover from the positive battery post to expose the terminal. 

    

6. Attach the red (+) cable to the positive terminal. If you are using another car, connect the other red clamp (other end of the jumper cable) to the positive terminal of the helper car. 

7. Connect the black (negative) cable to the frame. For example, the bolts for the struts work well for this. Be cautious when connecting directly to the negative terminal. 

   

    

8. If using a helper car, connect the other end of the jumper cables to the other vehicle. Start the helper vehicle and let it idle. 

9. Get inside your Nissan with the dead battery and start the engine. If you Nissan dashboard powers up but you hear a clicking noise check to make sure the clams are making good contact. Also, allow your battery to charge for a few minutes and try again. 

Notes

• Keep the key out of the ignition and the ignition off until you are ready to start the engine. 
• During this procedure, you should be extremely careful to not allow the red and back clamps to make contact.
