Battery; Vehicle Storage - Buick 2005 Century Owner's Manual

Battery

Your vehicle has a maintenance free battery.
When it is time for a new battery, get one that has the
replacement number shown on the original battery's
label. We recommend an ACDelco
battery. See Engine Compartment Overview on
page 5-12 for battery location.
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

If you are not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days
or more, remove the black, negative ( ) cable from
the battery. This will help keep your battery from
running down.
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 5-40
for tips on working around a battery without
getting hurt.
Contact your dealer to learn how to prepare your
vehicle for longer storage periods.
Also, for your audio system, see Theft-Deterrent
Feature on page 3-63.
