MB didnt really mean for that connection to be used for JUMP starting BUT for charging the battery.

No matter what you SHOULD remove the rear seat & open the windows while charging. These batterys can "gas" when charging & IF the battery vent hose isn't connected you can have problems.
Also the original batterys aren't sealed, you need to add water at times.
