things to know. Positive (+)
jumper cable goes to
positive (+) battery terminal or
a remote positive (+) terminal if
available. Negative (−) jumper
cable goes to negative (−)
battery terminal or a remote
negative (−) terminal if
available. Do not connect
positive (+) to negative (−) or there will be a short that may
damage the battery and other
parts of the vehicle.

connected or removed in the
wrong order, electrical shorting
may occur and damage the
vehicle. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.

jumper cables in the correct order,
making sure that the cables do
not touch each other or other
metal.

positive (+) terminal (1) of your
Volt. Do not let the other end of
the cable touch metal.
