AUXILIARY BATTERY STORAGE
Your vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary battery. During storage, this battery
must be trickle charged. If the vehicle does not operate when removing from
storage, be sure to check the auxiliary battery voltage first.
If your vehicle is equipped with a lead acid battery, the auxiliary battery is
located under the dash. If your vehicle is equipped with a Li-ion battery, the
auxiliary battery can be located under the rear access panel.
BATTERY ACCESS
To access the batteries, do the following:
1. Remove the seat.
2. Remove the storage tray (if equipped)
NOTE
Before removing the seat to access the batteries, make sure any wire or metal
items (including seat belt latches) remain clear of the battery compartment to
avoid causing a short circuit to the electrical system.
BATTERY INSPECTIONS
Inspect battery terminal connections monthly. Clean batteries as recommended.
Using an insulated wrench, torque bolts to 8 ft. lbs. (11 Nm).
BATTERY CLEANING
Always keep battery terminals and connections free of corrosion. To clean,
remove corrosion with a stiff wire brush. Wash with a solution of one tablespoon
baking soda and one cup water. Rinse well with tap water and dry off with clean
shop towels. Coat battery terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.
NOTE
Do not allow cleaning solution or tap water to enter the batteries.
