on page See Side-Post Battery: Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline/Diesel Vehicles on page 1-3.
See Top-Post Battery: Disconnecting the Battery- Gasoline/Diesel Vehicles on page 1-4..
9. The battery should be clean and free of corrosion. Wash the battery top and terminals with a solution of baking
soda and water (1 cup (237 mL) baking soda per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water). Rinse the solution off the battery.
Do not allow this solution to enter the battery. Let the terminals dry and then coat them with Battery Terminal
Protector Spray (CC P/N 1014305).

RETURNING THE STORED VEHICLE TO SERVICE

1. Make sure the key switch is in the OFF position and the Forward/Reverse handle is in the NEUTRAL position.
Chock the wheels.
