Batteries normally produce explosive gases which can cause

personal injury. Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or lighted

substances to come near the battery. When working near the battery,

always shield your face and protect your eyes. Always provide proper

ventilation.

When lifting a plastic-cased battery, excessive pressure on the

end walls could cause acid to flow through the vent caps,

resulting in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or battery.

Lift the battery with a battery carrier or with your hands on opposite

corners.

Keep batteries out of reach of children. Batteries contain sulfuric

acid. Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Shield your eyes

when working near the battery to protect against possible splashing of

acid solution. In case of acid contact with skin or eyes, flush

immediately with water for a minimum of 15 minutes and get prompt

medical attention. If acid is swallowed, call a physician immediately.

Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and

lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

For information on transmission operation after the battery has been

disconnected, refer to Shift strategy in the Driving chapter.

To account for customer driving habits and conditions, your automatic

transmission (4R70W) electronically controls the shift quality by using an

adaptive learning strategy. The adaptive learning strategy is maintained

by power from the battery. When the battery is disconnected or a new

battery is installed, the transmission must relearn its adaptive strategy.

Optimal shifting will resume within a few hundred kilometers (miles) of

operation.

If the shift quality does not improve within a few hundred

kilometers (miles) of operation, or if the downshifts and other

throttle conditions do not function normally or after a long

deceleration period, see your dealer or a qualified service

technician as soon as possible.

Because your vehicle’s engine is also electronically controlled by a

computer, some control conditions are maintained by power from the
