vehicle and let it run at approximately
2,000 RPM for a few minutes. Then
start your vehicle.
11. Keep your vehicle operating for at
least 30 minutes at idle or driving to
assure your battery receives enough

has run for less, the vehicle may not

assistance. If the cause of your battery
discharging is not apparent, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
