How To Jump Start a Car with a Jump Box
Owning a car is something everyone wants to do. This is because travelling long distances has become a necessity for just about everyone. It is impossible for anyone to go one day without having to travel a significant distance to get to a specific destination.
Now if people had to walk or cycle this distance, they might not be able to, which is why they try to purchase cars, which helps make life a whole lot more convenient for them.
Nonetheless, after you use a car for a long time, your battery tends to become a little weak. It is impossible to prepare for this ahead of time, but you should always have a contingency plan in case this does end up happening. The best way to go about this is to keep a jump box in your car, which can help provide that boost to the battery, which in turn would help power up your engine and get your car running again.

1
Purchase
The first thing you need to do is to buy a jump box. There are numerous kinds of jump boxes that you can buy, so you should ideally buy one that is well suited for your car. -

Open hood and secure
Now when you find your car stalled and have your jump box with you, the first thing you need to do is to take the jump box near the place where your battery is located and place it close by.
Now you need to get to clamp wires. After you have the clamp wires, you need to clamp the positive end of the jump box, which will be colored red to the positive end of the car battery. You will then repeat this step for the negative side, which is more than likely going to be black in color.
Once you have these clamps locked and in the right terminals you need to head to the driver’s seat. -

Start car
Start your car and slowly start to rev the engine till it starts. This may take a few attempts so be patient and don’t force the car to start. -

Remove
Once the car is running, you need to go back and remove the clamps and the cables that you connected to jump the car via the jump box. You then need to close the hood of the car and put the jump box away.
