The first ride home. The first school run. The first solo drive. The matric dance. The graduation. The first day at the new job. Life’s biggest moments often begin with a car pulling away. First Battery has helped keep South Africans moving through them for 95 years. Keeping You Moving! 🚗🔋

Flat battery? Here's how to jump-start it safely.
1. Red clamp to + on the flat battery.
2. Other red clamp to + on the good battery.
3. Black clamp to – on the good battery.
4. Last black clamp to bare metal on the flat car's engine, away from the battery.
Start the good car, wait a minute, then start yours. Remove the clamps in reverse order.
Save this post for when you need it. And if your car needs a jump more than once, the battery is telling you something. Bring it in for a free test.
