If the jumper cables smoke and catch fire, immediately disconnect them from both vehicles to prevent further damage or injury. Use a fire extinguisher if available, targeting the base of the flames, or smother the fire with a thick cloth or other non-flammable material. Ensure you keep a safe distance and avoid using water, as it can spread the flames or cause electrical hazards. Once the fire is out, assess the situation and seek professional assistance if needed.
