Stop-start battery.
Where on the engine is the ground point to connect the negative clamp of the battery charger? As per the instructions of the ctek battery charger the negative supply should be clamped to a ground point on the car and not the battery terminal.

Any paintless bolt on the engine should do.

Hopefully he's got his battery charged now. I wonder if he has the dreaded "Dying Fiamm" syndrome?
