Battery; Vehicle Storage - Chevrolet Kodiak 2006 Owner's Manual

Battery

Your vehicle has one or more maintenance free
batteries. When it is time for a new battery, be sure it
has the replacement number shown on the original
battery's label. We recommend an ACDelco
replacement battery.
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. (If your vehicle has more than one battery,
®
be sure to remove the negative (−) battery cable from
each battery.)
{
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 5-59 for tips on working around a battery
without getting hurt.
When you are ready to use the vehicle again, refer to
the engine starting procedure in the Index.
CAUTION:
