Because your vehicle's engine is electronically controlled by a
computer, some control conditions are maintained by power
from the battery. If you ever disconnect the battery, install a
new battery, or experience a dead battery, you must allow the
computer to ªrelearnº its idle conditions before your vehicle will
idle at its best. To let the engine do this, apply the parking
brake, put the gearshift in Park (automatic transmission) or
Neutral (manual transmission), turn off all the accessories, and
start the vehicle. Let the engine idle for at least one minute.

If you do not let the engine relearn its idle, the idle quality of
your vehicle may be adversely affected until the idle is
relearned. Your vehicle will eventually relearn its idle while you
drive it, but it takes much longer than if you use the previous
procedure.
