Warning
Batteries have acid that can burn you and
gas that can explode. You can be hurt
badly if you are not careful.
Always wear eye protection. Follow
instructions carefully when working
around a battery.
Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds which can cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling.
Do not disconnect the 12-volt battery during
storage.
A trickle charger may be attached to the
12-volt battery terminals or trickle charge
from the underbonnet remote positive (+)
and negative (–) terminals. See Jump
Starting 0 275 for location of these
terminals.
Caution
The vehicle is equipped with an AGM/
VRLA 12-volt battery, which can be
damaged by using the incorrect type of
trickle charger. An AGM/VRLA-compatible
charger must be used, with the
appropriate setting selected. Follow the
trickle charger manufacturer instructions.
With a trickle charger connected to the
12-volt battery, the vehicle will still monitor
the 12-volt battery daily, but it will not use
energy from the high voltage battery for
maintenance.
High Voltage Battery
After extended storage, it is possible that
the vehicle may not operate. If this happens,
the high voltage battery may need to be
plugged in and charged.

Mechanism Check
{
Warning
When you are doing this check, the
vehicle could begin to move. You or
others could be injured and property
could be damaged. Make sure there is
room in front of the vehicle in case it
begins to roll. Be ready to apply the
regular brake at once should the vehicle
begin to move.
Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle
facing downhill. Keeping your foot on the
regular brake, apply the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB).
.
To check the EPB's holding ability: With
the propulsion system active and the
electric drive unit in N (Neutral), slowly
remove foot pressure from the foot brake
pedal. Do this until the vehicle is held by
the EPB only.
.
To check the P (Park) mechanism's
holding ability: With the propulsion
system active, shift to P (Park). Then
release the EPB and slowly remove foot
pressure from the regular brake pedal.
