itive terminal of the battery, or to the corre‐
sponding
starting aid terminal of the vehicle

jumper
cable to the negative terminal of the
battery, or to the corresponding engine or body ground of the vehicle providing assis‐
tance.

ative
terminal of the battery, or to the corre‐
sponding engine or body ground of the ve‐
hicle to be started.
