Jumpstarting a Ford Mondeo
To jumpstart a Ford Mondeo, you can follow these steps:
1. Prepare for Jump-Starting:
– Read the safety, jump-starting, and roadside emergency information in your Owner’s Manual under “Roadside Emergencies”.
– Have your Roadside Assistance number (800-241-3673) handy.
– Locate a pair of color-coded jumper cables and a wire brush for removing battery terminal corrosion.
– Find each vehicle’s battery; they can be under the hood or in the trunk.
– Remove any metal jewelry like rings or bracelets to avoid accidental shocks while working near the battery.
– Do not disconnect the disabled battery as this could damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
2. Jump-Starting Your Vehicle:
– Connect the red positive (+) cable to the positive terminal of the dead battery.
– Connect the other end of the red positive (+) cable to the positive terminal of the donor vehicle’s battery.
– Connect the black negative (-) cable to the negative terminal of the donor vehicle’s battery.
– Connect the other end of the black negative (-) cable to a large, unpainted metal surface in the disabled vehicle’s engine bay, away from the battery and the engine itself.
– After a final check, start the disabled vehicle.
Please note that it’s always a good idea to consult your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for specific instructions and safety precautions.

How do you jumpstart a car with a keyless ignition?
By connecting it to your car’s battery, you can power the electronics in the car, as well as the starter, to get it going. Simply attach the jump box to your battery, then get into the car with your keyless FOB in your possession, press the start button and it should start right up.
Where do you put jumper cables on a dead battery?
Connect your cables
Connect one end of the red clamp to the positive terminal of the working vehicle. This is denoted by a circled (+). Connect the other red clamp to the positive terminal of the dead car battery. Connect a black clamp to the negative terminal of the working vehicle.
How do you put jumper cables on a Ford?
Then we connect the positive to the vehicle. That we’re not jumping. Or the jumper vehicle or the donor vehicle is what they call it. So you’ll connect the positive to that battery.
How do you find the ground when jumping a car?
Instead, you should look for a ground to connect to – in this case, an unpainted, unmoving, metal surface under your car’s hood. Some newer cars have a ground spot away from the battery, specifically for jumping your car (check your owner’s manual to see you have one).
Where do you put jump leads on a Ford Mondeo?
You will find that the negative battery cable is off to the right. So first connect the red colored clamp to the positive cable. Then connect the black clamp to the negative cable.
Where should I put the negative jump lead?
Now you’re ready to jump start. Contact your local Mercedes-Benz dealership if your battery needs replacement.
Where can I put the negative jumper cable?
Attach the negative end of the cable (typically black) to the negative battery terminal. This is normally marked with a “–“ sign on the booster car. Connect the other end of the negative cable. Be sure that it’s attached to an unpainted metal surface on the engine of the dead car.
Where do you put negative jump?
Connect the black clip to the negative terminal on the donor vehicle’s working battery. BLACK to METAL: Back to the dead battery. Connect the black clip to an unpainted metal part of the dead car (like a bolt or bracket) that is not directly next to the battery.
Where do you put negative jump lead?
Contact your local Mercedes-Benz dealership if your battery needs replacement. And be sure to use a Mercedes-Benz genuine battery to maintain performance. And reliability.
Where do you put jump leads?
One end of the red jump lead should be connected to the flat battery’s positive terminal. The lead must not touch any vehicle metal. Attach the red lead’s other end to the boosting battery’s positive terminal. Take the black lead and connect one end to the boosting battery’s negative terminal.
