Jump starting method

Post by rafael.torner »

Hello everyone,

I went on holiday and came back to a dead battery, which I purchased about 1.5 years ago. I know jumpstarting is not ideal, so I'm wondering if there are any alternatives? Any info would be appreciated. Thank you!

I think the recommend that you jump it from a second battery that isn't attached to a running car ..

Can you use a battery charger?
