Battery
Improperly connecting or disconnecting battery cables can result in an explosion
and cause serious injury or death. When removing the battery, always
disconnect the negative (black) cable first. When reinstalling the battery, always
connect the negative (black) cable last.
Battery Removal
1. Remove the driver’s seat. See
page 31.
2. On conventional batteries,
remove the battery vent tube.
3. Disconnect the black (negative)
battery cable first.
4. Disconnect the red (positive)
battery cable last.
5. Lift the battery out of the vehicle. Be careful not to tip a conven-
tional battery sideways, which could spill electrolyte.
NOTICE: If electrolyte spills, immediately wash it off with a solution of one
tablespoon baking soda and one cup water to prevent damage to the
vehicle.
