Battery Installation

Using a new battery that has not been fully charged can damage the battery and result in a shorter life. It can also hinder vehicle performance. Follow the instructions in the Battery Charging section before installing the battery.

An optional extreme use battery may be available for your model. If the performance of the factory-installed battery is inadequate due to operation in extreme cold or due to extended use of multiple electrical accessories, your authorized dealer can assist. Your dealer can provide any installation procedures that may differ for an extreme use battery.

  1. Ensure that the battery is fully charged.

  2. Place the battery in the battery holder.

  3. Coat the terminals with dielectric grease or petroleum jelly.

  4. Secure the battery hold-down strap.

  5. Connect and tighten the red (positive) cable first.

  6. Connect and tighten the black (negative) cable last.

  7. Verify that cables are properly routed. Cables should be safely tucked away at the front and rear of the battery.

  8. Close and secure the front box and cover.
