1. Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and let it run for several minutes at an increased idle speed.

If the first starting attempt is not successful, wait a few minutes before making another attempt in order to allow the discharged battery to recharge.
3. Let both engines run for several minutes.
4. Disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse order.
Check the battery and recharge if necessary.
