* Your Cadillac's battery is healthy and fully charged. A weak battery won't provide enough power to jump another car.
* You have the correct jumper cables. Use heavy-gauge jumper cables designed for 12-volt systems.
* You follow the correct jump-starting procedure. Connecting the cables incorrectly can damage your car's electrical system.
Essentially, any car with a 12-volt battery can be used to jump-start another 12-volt car, provided the above conditions are met.
