Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
1. Disconnect the negative (-) jumper cable from the remote negative (-) post of the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
2. Disconnect the negative end (-) of the jumper cable from the negative (-) post of the
booster battery.
3. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+) jumper cable from the positive (+) post
of the booster battery.
4. Disconnect the positive (+) end of the jumper cable from the remote positive (+) post
of the discharged vehicle.
