Battery

Your vehicle has a maintenance free battery. When it is
time for a new battery, get one that has the replacement

recommend an ACDelco
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.
