For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the
top of the battery clean and dry.
If you see any corrosion on the battery or
terminals, remove the cables from the
terminals and clean with a wire brush. You
can neutralize the acid with a solution of
baking soda and water.
Because a computer electronically controls
your vehicle's engine, power from the battery
maintains some control conditions. When
you disconnect or have a new battery
installed, the engine must relearn its idle and
fuel trim strategy for optimum driveability and
performance. Flexible fuel vehicles (FFV)
must also relearn the ethanol content of the
fuel for optimum driveability and
performance.
To restore the settings, do the following:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Shift into park (P) or neutral (N).
3. Switch off all the accessories.
4. Press the brake pedal and start your
vehicle. 5. Run the engine until it reaches normal
operating temperature. While the engine
is warming up, complete the following:
Reset the clock. Reset the power
windows bounce-back feature. See
Windows and Mirrors (page 108). Reset
the radio station presets. See Audio
System (page 420).
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.
7. Drive the vehicle at least 10 mi (16 km) to
completely relearn the idle trim and fuel
trim strategy.
Note: If you do not allow the engine to
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy, you
could adversely affect the idle quality of your
vehicle until the engine computer eventually
relearns the idle trim and fuel trim strategy.
Note: For flexible fuel vehicles, if you are
operating on E85, you could experience poor
starts or an inability to start the engine and
driveability problems until the fuel trim and
ethanol content have been relearned. Make sure that you dispose of old batteries
in an environmentally friendly way. Seek
advice from your local authority about
recycling old batteries.
If storing your vehicle for more than 30 days
without recharging the battery, we
recommend that you disconnect the negative
battery cable to maintain battery charge for
quick starting.
