Your vehicle has two 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.
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.
If you are not going to drive your vehicle for 25 days or more, remove the black, negative (-) cable from each battery. This will help keep the batteries from running down.
Caution: Batteries have acid that can burn you and gas that can explode. You can be badly hurt if you are not careful. See Jump Starting for 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.
