CAUTION!
• To jump start a vehicle do not use a
portable battery, a booster pack or
any other booster source with a
system voltage greater than 14 Volts
or damage to the battery, starter
motor, alternator or electrical system
of the vehicle with the discharged
battery may occur.
• Do not use a battery charger for
emergency starting under any
circumstances. You could damage
the electronic systems, particularly
the control units managing the
ignition and fuel supply functions.
• If the battery is completely
discharged when the windows are
fully raised, open the door with the
utmost care; do not close the door
again until it is possible to lower the
window.
WARNING!
Always secure your vehicle by fully
applying the parking brake, before
activating the manual park release.
Activating the manual park release
could allow your vehicle to roll away if it is not secured by the parking
brake. Activating the manual park
release on an unsecured vehicle could
lead to serious injury or death for
those in or around the vehicle.
NOTE:
If
you need
to disconnect the battery
from the vehicle electrical system, see
“Maintenance — Free Battery” in
section “Maintenance and Care”).

Maintenance-Free Battery This vehicle is equipped with a sealed
type maintenance-free battery. You
will never have to add water, nor is
periodic maintenance required.
WARNING!

solution and can burn or damage the
eyes. Do not allow battery fluid to
contact your eyes, skin, or clothing.
If acid splashes in eyes or on skin,
flush the area immediately with
large amounts of water.
• Battery gas is flammable and
explosive. Keep flame or sparks
away from the battery. Do not use a
booster battery or any other booster
source with an output greater than
12 Volts. Do not allow cable clamps
to touch each other.
• Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after
handling the battery.
• The battery in this vehicle has a vent
hose that should not be
disconnected and should only be
replaced with a component of the same type (vented).
NOTE:
Remote
battery terminals for starting
are located in the engine
compartment for jump-starting to be
used with an auxiliary battery or a
battery from another vehicle (see
“Auxiliary Jump-Start Procedure”

To Reconnect the Battery NOTE:
When the battery cables have been
disconnected and the trunk lid has
been locked, it is necessary to pull the
emergency release lever in order to
re-open it. To access the trunk and
operate the emergency release fold
one of the rear seatbacks (see “Cargo
Area” chapter in section
“Understanding the Vehicle”).
CAUTION!
• It is essential when replacing the
cables on the battery that the
positive cable is attached to the
positive post (+) and the negative
cable is attached to the negative
post (–).
• Cable clamps should be tight on the
terminal posts and free of corrosion.
After the battery has been
disconnected
and re-connected and
before starting the engine it is
necessary to proceed as follows:
• Unlock and lock the doors using the
Key fob RKE Transmitter.
• Close manually the boot lid, unlock it
with the key fob RKE transmitter and
then lock it manually one more time. If the vehicle is equipped with Power
Boot Lid/Hand Free, manually
perform the complete closure. Then
move the lid automatically, using the
buttons on the lid itself, performing
a complete cycle of opening and
closing.
• Initialize the climate control system
by activating the system and pressing
the “AUTO” control as described in
chapter “Air Conditioning Controls”
in section “Dashboard Instruments
and Controls”.
• Turn on the MTC+ and set the date
and time (see “MTC+ Settings” in
section “Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
• Lift, release and lift again the lever
on the central console to initialize
the electric parking brake. Following
this operation the
warning light
on the instrument cluster will turn
off.
• For correct activation of the
approach lights on the external
mirrors, press at least once the tilt
button on the driver's door panel so
that the door mode recognizes the
mirrors position. CAUTION!
• Every time the battery is
reconnected, wait at least 30 seconds
with the ignition switch turned to
RUN before starting the engine, in
order to allow the electronic system
that manages the motor-driven
throttles to run a self-learning cycle.
At the same time, you can run the
date and time set up procedure for
the MTC+.
• Every time the battery is reconnected
the warning light
flash for about
10 seconds and then go off.
