Warning
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 - North America 0 278 for tips on
working around a battery without
getting hurt.
Some vehicles have a battery maintainer
package. Follow the instructions provided
with the battery maintainer package to keep
the battery charged when the vehicle is not
in use. Plug the battery maintainer into the
underhood accessory power outlet only.
For vehicles without a battery maintainer,
see the following information:
Infrequent Usage: Remove the black,
negative (−) cable from the battery to keep
the battery from running down.
See “Window Indexing” under Power
Windows 0 29.
Extended Storage: It is recommended that
the battery maintainer package be used.
However, if not, remove the black,
negative (−) cable from the battery. All
vehicle memory settings will need to be
reset when battery power is restored.
Park Brake and P (Park)
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, set the parking brake.
.
To check the parking brake's holding
ability: With the engine running and the
transmission in N (Neutral), slowly remove
foot pressure from the regular brake
pedal. Do this until the vehicle is held by
the parking brake only.
.
To check the P (Park) mechanism's holding
ability: With the engine running, shift to
P (Park). Then release the parking brake
followed by the regular brake.
Contact your dealer if service is required.
