If you are storing your vehicle for more than 3 weeks, we
recommend that you take the following steps to minimize
the drain on your vehicle's battery:
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
If your vehicle is equipped with Stop/Start system then
disconnect both the main and supplemental negative
battery cables.
Any time you store your vehicle or keep it out of service
(i.e., vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air condi
-
tioning system at idle for about five minutes in the fresh
air and high blower setting. This will ensure adequate
system lubrication to minimize the possibility of
compressor damage when the system is started again.
If assistance is needed to disconnect the battery
system, see an authorized dealer.

Vehicle body care requirements vary according to
geographic locations and usage. Chemicals that make
roads passable in snow and ice and those that are
sprayed on trees and road surfaces during other seasons
are highly corrosive to the metal in your vehicle. Outside
parking, which exposes your vehicle to airborne
contaminants, road surfaces on which the vehicle is
operated, extreme hot or cold weather, and other extreme
conditions will have an adverse effect on paint, metal trim,
and underbody protection.
The following maintenance recommendations will enable
you to obtain maximum benefit from the corrosion
resistance built into your vehicle.
Vehicles with the Stop/Start system will be equipped
with two batteries. Both the main and the supple
-
mental batteries must be disconnected to
completely de-energize the 12 Volt electrical system.
Serious injury or death could result if you do not
disconnect both batteries. To learn how to properly
disconnect, see an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
If the negative battery cables are not isolated properly it
can cause a potential power spike or surge in the
system, resulting in damage to essential electrical
components.
WARNING!
1 — Supplemental Negative Battery Cable
2 — Main Negative Battery Cable
