Battery
If your car's battery is disconnected
or goes dead, the engine's computer
needs to "relearn" the idle control.
After replacing or recharging the
battery:
1. Make sure the climate control sys-
tem is off.
2. Start the engine and let it run until
it warms up (the radiator cooling
fan comes on at least twice), and
let it idle for five more minutes.
Maintenance
Your audio system will also disable it-
self when the battery is disconnected
or goes dead. The next time you turn
on the radio you will see "Code" in
the frequency display. Use the Pre-
set buttons to enter the five-digit
code (see page 162 ).
NOTICE
Charging the battery with the cables
connected can seriously damage your
car's electronic controls. Detach the
battery cables before connecting the
battey' to a charger.
