Battery
Your vehicle has two maintenance free batteries. When
it is time for a new battery, see your dealer/retailer for
one that has the replacement number shown on the
original battery's label.
Warning: Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling.
Vehicle Storage
CAUTION:
{
Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas
that can explode. You can be badly hurt if you
are not careful. See Jump Starting on
page 5-46 for tips on working around a battery
without getting hurt.
Infrequent Usage: If you drive your vehicle infrequently,
remove the black, negative (−) cable from each
battery. This will help keep the batteries from running
down.
Extended Storage: For extended storage of your
vehicle, remove the black, negative (−) cable from each
battery or use a battery trickle charger. This will help
maintain the charge of the batteries over an extended
period of time.
When you are ready to use the vehicle again, refer to
the engine starting procedure in the Index.
