Jump Starting

3. Connect one jumper cable to the

positive ( + ) terminal on the
booster battery. Connect the other
end to the positive ( + ) terminal
on your Acura's battery.

4. Connect the second jumper cable

to the negative ( — ) terminal on
the booster battery. Connect the
other end to the ground wire on
the right side of the engine as

shown. Do not connect this jumper
cable to any other part of the
engine.

5. If the booster battery is in another

vehicle, have an assistant start
that vehicle and run it at a fast idle.

6. Start your car. If the starter motor

still operates slowly, check the

jumper cable connections to make

sure they have good metal-to-
metal contact.

7. Once your car is running, discon-

nect the negative cable from your
car, then from the booster battery.
Disconnect the positive cable from

your car, then the booster battery.
