Maintenance
Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
(Continued)
CAUTION
•
Never attempt to recharge the
battery when the battery cables
are connected.
• When you don’t use the vehicle
for a long time in low temperature
area, separate the battery and
keep it indoors.
• Always charge the battery fully to
prevent battery case damage in
low temperature area.
• If you connect unauthorized elec-
tronic devices to the battery, the
battery may be discharged. Never
use unauthorized devices.
Make sure the battery cap is
closed. If the battery cap is not
closed securely, it can malfunc-
tion because the electric compo-
nents are exposed to moisture.
If the battery becomes discharged in a
short time (because, for example the
headlights or interior lights were left on
while vehicle was not in use) jump start
the vehicle from another battery and run
the engine at least 20 minutes at idle
before driving. Do not turn off the engine
for 30 minutes total of idle and/or driving
as the battery may not have sufficient
recharge to start.
•
The electrical ignition system
works with high voltage. Never
touch these components with the
engine running or the ignition
switched on.
Failure to follow the above warn-
ings can result in serious bodily
injury or death.
