Before you start the boost turn off all the battery-powered accessories in your car such as headlights, radio, heater and air conditioner. Don't hook up the cables yet.

Your battery is dead. Being the frugal sort, you've decided to enlist the aid of a neighbor to give the battery a boost instead of calling a garage. Now you've got a good battery on hand and two booster cables. There is a fairly simple six-step procedure you can follow to boost the standard 12-volt, negative-ground battery found in most late model cars. When your neighbor pulls his car , up to yours for the boost be sure the two vehicles aren't touching. If your neighbor's car doesn't have a 12-volt . battery, too, thank him for the offer but also tell him "no thanks". The voltage is shown on the battery case and you should not boost your 12-volt battery with anything but another 12-volt WINTERIZE YOUR CAR NOW! BEFORE THE SNOW FLIES! '••••••"••••\.
