Operate the starter on the vehicle being assisted.Note: For any operation necessitating a disconnection of the bat-tery, you must wait 3 minutes after switching the ignition off, taking no action which will prevent the vehicle's electrical system from going to sleep (such as operating the doors and tailg ate, pressing the buttons on the remote control, etc.).
