Battery
When removing and connecting the
battery, always make sure that all
electrical consumers are off and the
key is in steering lock position 0.
Warning!
The maintenance-free battery is located
in the trunk behind the right-hand cover
panel.
Never lean over batteries while
connecting or jump starting, you
might get injured.
While the engine is running the battery
terminal clamps must not be loosened
or detached, otherwise the alternator
and other electronic components would
be damaged.
The service life of the battery is also
dependent on its condition of charge.
The battery should always be kept
sufficiently charged,in order to last an
optimum length of time.
Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid.
Do not allow this fluid to come in
contact with eyes, skin or clothing.
In case it does, immediately flush
affected area with water and seek
medical help.
Battery Recycling
Therefore, we strongly recommend
that you have the battery charge
checked frequently, and corrected if
necessary, especially if you use the
vehicle less than approximately 200
miles (300 km) per month, mostly for
short distance trips, or if it is not
used for long periods of time.
Batteries contain materials that can
harm the environment with
improper disposal.
A battery will also produce
hydrogen gas, which is flammable
and explosive. Keep flames or sparks
away from battery, avoid improper
connection of jumper cables,
smoking, etc..
Large 12 Volt storage batteries contain
lead, and smaller watch-type batteries
(such as in the Infrared Remote
Control Unit) may contain mercury.
Only charge a battery with a battery
charger after it has been disconnected
from the vehicle electrical circuit.
Recycling of batteries is the
preferred method of disposal.
Many states require sellers of batteries
to accept old batteries for recycling.
