10-22 Vehicle Care
What to Add
Use only new DOT 3 brake fluid
from a sealed container. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11-11.
Always clean the brake fluid
reservoir cap and the area around
the cap before removing it. This
helps keep dirt from entering the
reservoir.
{Warning
With the wrong kind of fluid in the
brake hydraulic system, the
brakes might not work well. This
could cause a crash. Always use
the proper brake fluid.
{Caution
.Using the wrong fluid can
badly damage brake
hydraulic system parts. For(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
example, just a few drops of
mineral-based oil, such as
engine oil, in the brake
hydraulic system can damage
brake hydraulic system parts
so badly that they will have to
be replaced. Do not let
someone put in the wrong
kind of fluid.
.If brake fluid is spilled on the
vehicle's painted surfaces,
the paint finish can be
damaged. Be careful not to
spill brake fluid on the
vehicle. If you do, wash it off
immediately.
Battery
The original equipment battery is
maintenance free. Do not remove
the cap and do not add fluid.
This vehicle has a standard 12-volt
battery under the hood. See Engine
Compartment Overview on page 10-5. Refer to the replacement
number shown on the original
battery label when a new 12-volt
battery is needed.
Stop/Start System
If equipped with the 2.5L L4 Engine,
the vehicle has a stop/start system
to shut off the engine to help
conserve fuel. See
Starting the
Engine on page 9-18.
Vehicles with Stop/Start have an
Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) 12-volt
underhood battery. Installation of a
standard 12-volt battery will result in
reduced 12-volt battery life.
There is also an auxiliary AGM
battery behind the access panel in
the left rear of the trunk. This
battery is for managing the stop/
start auxiliary loads and is not to be
used for any other purpose. See
your dealer if the auxiliary battery
needs service.
When using a 12-volt battery
charger on the 12-volt AGM battery,
some chargers have an AGM
