Open bonnet put jump leads from spare battery onto terminals under bonnet passenger side and you will get power back

Jump leads onto the jump point under the bonnet or a booster pask on them.

I hope the positive battery lead isn't touching the bodywork, or you'll be in trouble!

Isn't there a pull cable on the rear trim of the boot lid? check your handbook.
I think there is a post on here somewhere.
