Check Battery Voltage

  1. If 20 minutes have not passed since the engine was stopped, turn the ignition switch ON and turn on the electrical system (headlamp, blower motor, rear de-fogger etc.) for 60 seconds to remove the surface charge.
  2. Turn the ignition switch OFF and turn off the electrical systems.
  3. Measure the battery voltage between the negative (-) and positive (+) terminals of the battery.

    Standard voltage: 12.5~12.9V at 20°C(68°F)

    If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
