Battery
Your vehicle has one or more maintenance free
batteries. When it is time for a new battery, be sure it
has the replacement number shown on the original
battery’s label. We recommend an ACDelco
®
replacement battery.
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.
Vehicle Storage
If you are not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days or
more, remove the black, negative (−) cable from the
battery. This will help keep your battery from running
down. (If your vehicle has more than one battery,
be sure to remove the negative (−) battery cable from
each battery.)
{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 5-56for tips on working around a battery
without getting hurt.
When you are ready to use the vehicle again, refer to
the engine starting procedure in the Index.
