Battery terminals or battery posts.
reverse for reconnecting unhook the negative and then the positive. The dealer has replacement cables available. Negative part number 4760567AC Positive part number 4759367AB
Connect the positive (+) Red cable from the charger to the positive (+) post of the battery. Now connect the negative (-) Black cable to a metal part of the engine. Do not connect to negative battery post. Plug the charger in. Unplug the charger before removing the cables. Disconnect the negative cable first.
When a battery's negative terminal is not connected to a circuit, it accumulates excess electrons, creating a negative charge. This creates a potential difference between the positive and negative terminals, which is the driving force for the flow of electric current when the battery is connected to a circuit.
Negative: The negative part of an atom is the electrons which have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus. Positive: The positive part of an atom is the nucleus which contains protons with a positive charge.
The anodes and cathodes affect the voltage of the battery all the time. Without them, the battery would not work. The anode provides the positive charge or current. The cathode provides the negative charge or electrons. Part of the anode is down in the battery and part serves as a terminal. Part of the cathode is down in the battery and part serves a a terminal.
There is a plus and minus side on all batteries to indicate the polarity of the battery - positive (+), negative (-), this way one knows which part to match with the device. Plus on the battery has to match the plus on the device and same for the negative in other for the device to function.
Just like a top post battery. Connect the positive cable to that positive side post and the negative cable to any metal part of the engine. You can connect to the side post if you just try.
Nothing happens to the vehicle if you connect the negative side first.But is is safer to connect the positive side first. Reason If the negative side is already connected and you put the positive side on you take a chance of touching a part of the body or radiator with your wrench while tightening it, causing the positive side to ground out. If your negative side is not connected yet and you touch the wrench to the body while tighting the positive side nothing will happen. So installing the positive side first reduces the chance of shorting the battery out which could cause the battery to explode.

No, you should remove the negative first. That way if your wrench slips and hits a metal part of the car and the battery at the same time it will not spark.No, you should remove the negative first.

To jump-start a Volvo XC90, first ensure both vehicles are turned off. Connect the positive (red) jumper cable to the dead battery's positive terminal and the other end to the donor battery's positive terminal. Next, attach the negative (black) cable to the donor battery's negative terminal and the other end to a grounded metal part of the XC90, away from the battery. Start the donor vehicle, then attempt to start the XC90.
If referring to the symbols "+" and "-", the plus side or "+" means positive, whereas the minus side or "-" means negative. Hope that helps.
