Do not disconnect battery terminals while the engine is running.
This will adversely affect all electronic controllers.
While removing the battery, always disconnect the negative
terminal first. And while installing the battery, ensure the
negative terminal is connected last.
It is recommended that the negative battery cable terminal be
disconnected from the battery if you plan to store your vehicle for
an extended period of time. This will minimize the discharge of your
battery during storage.
Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution; do not allow battery
acid to contact eyes, skin or clothing. Don't lean over battery
when attaching clamps or allow the clamps to touch each
other. If acid splashes in the eyes or on the skin, flush
contaminated area immediately with large quantities of water.
A battery generates hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Keep any flame or spark away from the vent holes.
Keep batteries out of reach of children. Battery posts,
terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead
components. Wash hands after handling batteries.
If the battery has been disconnected or a new battery has been
installed, the clock (if equipped) and the preset radio (if
equipped) stations must be reset once the battery is
reconnected.
The replacement battery must meet the specification of the
originally fitted battery.
