Maintenance
12V Battery recharging
Your vehicle has a maintenance-free,
calcium-based battery.
If the 12V battery becomes discharged
in a short time (because, for example,
the headlights or interior lights were
left on while the vehicle was not in
use), jump start it from another vehi-
cle’s 12V battery or recharge it by slow
charging (trickle) for 10 hours.
If the 12V battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it at 20-
30A for two hours.
CALIFORNIA
PROPOSI-
TION 65 WARNING
Battery posts, terminals, and relat-
ed accessories contain lead and
lead compounds, chemicals known
to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects and reproduc-
tive harm. Batteries also contain
other chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer. Wash
hands after handling.
CAUTION
When you don’t use the vehicle
for a long time in the low temper-
ature, remove the 12V battery and
store it indoors.
Always charge the 12V battery
fully to prevent 12V battery case
damage in low temperatures.
If you connect unauthorized elec-
tronic devices to the 12V battery,
the 12V battery may be dis-
charged. Never use unauthorized
devices.
(Continued)
When lifting a plastic-cased bat-
tery, excessive pressure on the
case may cause battery acid to
leak, resulting in personal 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 components with the
engine running or the engine
start/stop button positioned on.
Failure to follow the above warn-
ings can result in serious bodily
injury or death.
