Today we will explain how to position the jumper cables on the battery of the Citroën C3 phase 3. Placing the cables to jump start the car using another vehicle or an external battery is a simple operation to perform independently. We open the front hood of our car and place the cable with the red handle on the positive pole of the battery, also indicated with a red cover, and we place the cable with the black handle on the negative pole of the battery.
