Guidelines for MY2009
All MY2009 vehicles are equipped with facto-

non-spillable type batteries.
These WET type batteries are factory filled and
activated. They never need electrolyte check and
readjustment.
The permanently sealed VRLA battery never
needs refilling; however, it still needs periodic
charging.
BATTERY ACTIVATION
Since all the MY2009 batteries are WET (factory
activated), they never need to be activated using
acid packs. The electrolytes are already in the bat-
teries.
BATTERY CHARGING
Initial Charging
Sealed VRLA batteries require an initial charge.
If you are using a constant current charger, refer to
the standard (STD) charging method printed on the
battery.
