Using battery tester
PASS (11.0 V or more): Explain to the customer that the battery is reusable.
Need to be charged (9.0 to 11.0 V): Charge the battery with a charger and reinstall it. Explain it to the
customer.
Need to be replaced (9.0 V or more): The battery should be replaced due to overdischarging. -

How to use battery tester
Determine battery capacity by fixing current
(load capacity) and time and varying voltage.
Determine battery capacity based on the
amount of voltage drop when discharging a
fixed load capacity (120 A) for 5 seconds.
Connect the tester to the battery and read the
display while applying a load for 5 seconds. -

Jump start
If the battery is weak or terminated, the battery from another vehicle can be used with jumper cables to
start the engine.
Connecting order
The positive (+) terminal of the discharged battery
The positive (+) terminal of the booster battery
The negative (-) terminal of the booster battery
Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the body of the discharged vehicle, such as the engine block
or a front towing hook. 1.

Starting
Prepare a set of jumper cables.
Place another vehicle that has the same 12 V of power near to the discharged vehicle.
Switch off all electrical accessories for the discharged vehicle.
Apply the parking brake and shift the transaxle to the P position (automatic transaxle) or neutral (N)
position (manual transaxle).
Connect the jumper cables.
Try to start the discharged vehicle while accelerating the engine rpm in the booster vehicle.
Attempt to start the engine with the discharged battery.
After starting the engine, carefully disconnect the jumper cables in the reverse sequence of
connection. 1.

Maintenance
If the charge warning lamp ( ) on the instrument cluster comes on while driving, there is a malfunction
in the charge system including the battery. Therefore, carrying out the system check is needed.
Make sure that the battery cables are firmly connected.
If the terminals are corroded, clean them with a wire brush or sandpapers.
Always disconnect the battery cables with the ignition key removed. When disconnecting the battery
cables with the ignition key turned to ON or ACC position, several electric units can be damaged due
to sudden voltage change.
Check the battery for crack, damage or fluid leaks. Replace it if necessary.
Wipe out the battery fluid on the battery surface using a rubber glove and a clean cloth wetted with
soapy water. -

Battery
It converts the chemical energy to the
electrical energy and supplies power to the
corresponding electric units when starting the
engine.
1. OVERVIEW
The charge system is designed to supply electrical energy to the vehicle while driving, and supplies a
constant direct current voltage by converting mechanical rotational movement to electrical energy. The
voltage regulator on the back of the alternator controls the generated voltage in all rotating ranges and
adjusts the system voltage according to the electric load and ambient temperature change.
Body ground
B+ wiringAlternator
The alternator charges the battery and
supplies power to each electric unit by
converting the mechanical energy to the
electrical energy.
