III. SAFETY
Batteries can deliver a large amount of power which can cause injury or death if not handled safely.
Please follow these guidelines any time you are working around batteries.
• Personal protective equipment including gloves and safety glasses should be worn.
• Insulated tools should be used.
• Watches, bracelets or other metal objects should be removed.
• Do not place any objects on top of the battery.
• Make sure the charging system is set for AGM batteries and in line with advised charging
specifications.
• Do not charge batteries if the temperature is above 104°F (40°C).
IV. GETTING STARTED
A. INSTALLATION
ODYSSEY

batteries are shipped from the factory at a full State of Charge (SOC) and should be
ready for installation out of the box. In typical starting applications, measure the battery’s voltage; if it
is 12.65 volts or higher, the battery can be installed. If the voltage is lower than 12.65 volts, the battery
should be charged. Multiple battery configurations should be matched voltage. Refer to the Charging
section in this manual if needed.
To replace an existing battery, follow the steps below:
1. Be sure to wear the appropriate personal protective equipment.
2. Note the orientation of the existing battery’s positive and negative terminals.
3. Disconnect the cables, negative first, from the old battery following vehicle manufacturer guide-
lines if applicable. The old battery should be returned to a battery dealer for proper recycling.
4. Inspect the battery cables for corrosion, acid damage or insulation deterioration and replace if
needed.
5. Position the new ODYSSEY AGM

battery in the battery tray and secure it
properly to the vehicle – height adapters may be needed and are available for some sizes
6. Connect the positive cable from the ignition to the Positive (+) terminal of the battery.
7. Connect the negative cable from the ignition or chassis to the Negative (-) terminal of the battery.
8. Properly torque the connection per the specification in Table 2 on page 7.
The steps above apply to a single, 12-volt battery. There are other applications that may require
batteries to be connected in parallel or series. It is important to take note of the battery’s required
configuration before the existing batteries are removed. If there is any question about the battery
configuration, refer to the documentation that was supplied with the device being powered. ODYSSEY

batteries can be installed on their side or end if needed due to space constraints.
