The red terminal on a battery is the positive pole, while the black one is the negative pole. The method for connecting battery terminals is as follows: 1. Open the two fastening buttons of the thermal insulation cover; 2. Use a wrench to loosen the fastening nut on the negative terminal; 3. Pry open the fastening block with a flat-head screwdriver; 4. Connect both positive terminals with a red cable; 5. Connect both negative terminals with a black cable. Battery maintenance methods include: 1. Avoid parking the car in open parking lots for extended periods; if long-term parking is necessary, remove and take the battery with you; 2. Avoid repeatedly starting the vehicle without intervals; 3. Start the car periodically to maintain sufficient battery charge; 4. Regularly inspect battery components and connecting wires; 5. Periodically clean the battery terminals and apply specialized grease to protect the wiring harness; 6. Avoid using car electronics after the engine is turned off.
