Disconnecting & Connecting Battery

CAUTION: NEVER disconnect battery with ignition switch in ON position.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the navigation computer hardware, a waiting period of at least 2 minutes must elapse after the ignition is turned off before the battery leads are disconnected.

CAUTION: Always ensure that battery leads are routed correctly and are not close to any potential chafing points.

Before disconnecting battery negative cable it is imperative that ignition key be removed from ignition switch. After removing ignition key WAIT at least 2 minutes before disconnecting battery negative cable. Failure to do so could result in navigation computer hardware damage and/or incorrect fuel gauge reading. Before disconnecting battery, disable alarm system and turn off all electrical equipment.
After reconnecting battery negative cable, the steering wheel must be turned to full left and right lock (with engine running). This allows Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system to relearn steering wheel position. Failure to do so will result in a variety of instrument warning lights being illuminated.
