Question: 1 / 400

When jump starting a car, it is recommended to connect all cables directly to the batteries.

True

False

This is incorrect because connecting the jumper cables directly to the batteries can result in damage to the car's electrical system. It is important to connect the positive cable to the positive terminal of the dead battery and the positive terminal of the live battery, and then connect the negative cable to the negative terminal of the live battery and a metal part of the dead car's engine. This prevents a sudden surge of electricity and reduces the risk of electrical damage. Therefore, the correct answer is false.
