specifications (including, without
limitation, software modifications,

218Vehicle careKeep the vehicle plugged in, even
when fully charged, to keep the high
voltage battery temperature ready for the next drive. This is important when
outside temperatures are extremely
hot or cold.
Refer to the replacement number
shown on the original vehicle battery
label if a new 12-volt vehicle battery
is required. The vehicle has an
Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) 12-volt
vehicle battery.
Installation of a standard 12-volt vehicle battery will result in reduced
12-volt battery life. When using a 12-
volt battery charger on the 12-volt
AGM battery, note that some
chargers have an AGM battery
setting on the charger. If available, use the AGM setting on the charger,
to limit charge voltage to 14.8 volts.
Follow the charger manufacturer's
instructions.Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
There are connecting points for jump
starting in the engine compartment.
Jump starting 3 237.
Remove the 12-volt vehicle battery
black negative (−) cable from the
vehicle battery to prevent the 12-volt
battery from running down, or use a
battery trickle charger.
Ensure the vehicle is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.
Vehicle storage 3 211.
