Your vehicle has a maintenance free battery.
When it is time for a new battery, get one that has
the replacement number shown on the original
battery’s label. We recommend an ACDelco
®
replacement battery. SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 342for battery location.
Warning:Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash
hands after handling.
{CAUTION:
Batteries have acid that can burn you and
gas that can explode. You can be badly
hurt if you are not careful. SeeJump
Starting on page 376for tips on working
around a battery without getting hurt.
After a power loss, such as disconnecting the
battery or removing the maxi fuses in the power
distribution fuse block, the following steps must be
performed to calibrate the electronic throttle control.
If this is not done, the engine will not run properly.
1. Turn the ignition key to ON. Do not start the
engine.
2. Leave the ignition in ON for at least
three minutes so that the electronic throttle
control will cycle and re-learn its home
position.
3. Turn the ignition to OFF.
4. Start and run the engine for at least
30 seconds.
