Default capacitor question

Guys, I am getting a 1 farad cap from my buddy...slightly used, but free nonetheless :D . Anyway, my question is, how is it installed? I read somewhere that it needs to be discharged before removing it from his car, and then re-charged before putting it into mine. But I am not sure how to do this, as I have never used one before. I'd really appreciate a few pointers. thanks as always :cheers:
