1. |
Install in the reverse order of removal.
When installing the battery, fix the mounting bracket
on the tray correctly.
|
• |
ISG (Idle stop & go) system equipped vehicle always
use the AGM battery only. If flooded battery has installed,
this can potentially lead to engine electrical trouble
or ISG system error.
|
• |
Replace same capacity of the AGM battery.
|
|
Ensure the AGM battery is placed correctly on the battery
tray. In all cases, an AGM battery must be installed and the
battery sensor calibrated for the ISG system to function. After
the battery has been changed or disconnected, the battery sensor
must be calibrated. After connecting the battery, start the
engine at least once. Then park the car for at least 4 hours
with the ignition off. After the 4 hours, the engine should
be started two times. At this time the battery sensor will be
calibrated.
|
Do not open the AGM battery.
The AGM battery must not be opened under any circumstances
as the introduction of oxygen from the air will cause the battery
to lose its chemical equilibrium and rendered non-operational.
