How do you jump start another car with a Volvo XC90?

Below is a link to a manual for a 2007 Volvo XC90. Page 136 discusses the procedure, which is similar to the process for other cars. http://www.analogstereo.com/pdf/om/volvo_xc90_owners_manual_2007.pdf Even though the battery is located in the back of the car, there's a positive terminal under the hood in front should be used. Exercise caution and follow standard jump start procedures (such as not letting the cars touch, turning off all components like the radio, fan, et in the cars), but the following setup has worked: # Connect the red cable to the positive terminal of the disabled car # Connect the other side of the red cable to the positive terminal of the boosting car # Connect the black cable to the negative terminal of the disabled car (Volvo) # Connect the other side of the black cable to a metallic part on the boosting car (Volvo) # Start the Volvo/Boosting car # Attempt to start the disabled car

How do you jump start a Volvo xc90?

Under the hood on the drivers side there is a Positive cable connector under a black cap near the fuse/relay box. Connect you positive (+) jumper there first. Then, WITH THE KEY OFF! connect your negative (-) jumper to the big aluminum mount on the left top of the engine. Now use the key and jump start as any other car. Make sure the key is off so as not to suddenly send a spike of voltage into the CanBus network when connecting the cables!

Where do you connect jumper cable on a Volvo xc90?

Make sure the car is in neutral (park for automatic) Open the bonnet (hood) You shall see a red coloured connector by the left hand side fuse board. Connect the positive to the other vehicle, then connect the negative to the engine. Always best to let the charge run for a couple of minutes, then start the XC90. Leave both vehicles running for a few minutes to get the best charge to the battery. DANGER: Always connect the jumper cables to dead battery vehicle FIRST. You may have unburnt fuel sitting in the engine, this can cause an explosion if a spark occurs from the cable connection. ALWAYS check polarity of the cables are correct BEFORE connecting - this can cause a fire, or even a battery explosion if incorrectly connected.
