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.

It is recommended that the negative battery cable terminal be

disconnected from the battery if you plan to store your vehicle for an

extended period of time. This will minimize the discharge of your battery

during storage.

Because your vehicle’s engine is electronically controlled by a computer,

some control conditions are maintained by power from the battery. When

the battery is disconnected or a new battery is 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 begin

this process:

1. With the vehicle at a complete stop, set the parking brake.

2. Put the gearshift in P (Park), turn off all accessories and start the

engine.

3. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.

4. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.

5. Turn the A/C on and allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.

6. Release the parking brake. With your foot on the brake pedal and with

the A/C on, put the vehicle in D (Drive) and allow the engine to idle for

at least one minute.

Note: If you do not allow the engine to relearn its idle trim, the idle

quality of your vehicle may be adversely affected until the idle trim is

eventually relearned.

7. Drive the vehicle to complete the relearning process.

• The vehicle may need to be driven 10 miles (16 kilometers) or more

to relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy along with the ethanol

content for flexible fuel vehicles.

• For flexible fuel vehicles, if you are operating on E85, you may

experience poor starts or an inability to start the engine and

driveability problems until the fuel trim and ethanol content

have been relearned.
