Check the condition of the battery

monthlybylookingatthetest

indicator window. The label on the

battery explains the test indicator’s

colors.

Battery posts,

terminals, and related accessories

contain lead and lead compounds.

Check the terminals for corrosion (a

white or yellowish powder). To

remove it, cover the terminals with a

solution of baking soda and water. It

will bubble up and turn brown. When

this stops, wash it off with plain

water. Dry off the battery with a

cloth or paper towel. Coat the

terminals with grease to help prevent

future corrosion.

If additional battery maintenance is

needed, see your dealer or a

qualified technician.

If you need to connect the battery to

a charger, disconnect both cables to

prevent damaging your vehicle’s

electrical system. Always disconnect

the negative ( ) cable first, and

reconnect it last.

To see the label, remove the battery

cover (see page ).428
