Maintenance
(Continued)An inappropriately dis-posed battery can be
harmful to the environ-ment and human health.
Dispose the battery
according to your local
law(s) or regulation.
When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive pressure
on the case may cause battery
acid to leak, resulting in per-
sonal injury. Lift with a battery
carrier or with your hands on
opposite corners.
Never attempt to recharge the battery when the battery
cables are connected.
The electrical ignition system works with high voltage.
Never touch these compo-nents with the engine running
or the ignition switched on.
Failure to follow the abovewarnings can result in serious
bodily injury or death.CAUTION
If you connect unauthorized electronic devices to the bat-tery, the battery may be dis-charged. Never use unautho- rized devices.
(Continued)
If any electrolyte getsinto your eyes, flush your
eyes with clean water for
at least 15 minutes and
get immediate medicalattention.
If electrolyte gets on your
skin, thoroughly wash
the contacted area. If you
feel pain or burning sen-
sation, get medical atten-
tion immediately.

Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for exam-
ple, the headlights or interior lights
were left on while the vehicle was
not in use), recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while
the vehicle is being used, recharge
it at 20-30A for two hours.
