I may have been looking in the wrong place but can anyone tell me the correct/safest method for charging the battery on my XF
Do Iconnect the two cables from battery charger to the relative "pos" and "neg" terminals of the battery, or should the neg lead be connected to the chassis as when accepting a start from another battery.
Charging the Battery in situ .....

Hello Peter, many thanks for your reply and your personal welcome to the Jaguar Owner Club.
The font i used may have hidden the fact that my car is a Jaguar XF and it is fitted with a battery monitoring system (BMS) and the connection is on the negative terminal of the battery and I am concerned that this could be detrimental to the system if I connect directly to the neg terminal rather than the frame.
I am probably being over caseous but I fear damaging electronic components which abound on today's cars.
