Handling and Storage the Battery

Battery Itself

•	Batteries should be stored in cool, dry (27°C / 80.6°F) places and out of direct sunlight.

•

MF batteries are tightly sealed to prevent acid leakage.

However, tilting the battery to an angle of 45 degrees can cause acid to leak through the vents on the sides. Therefore, batteries should always be stored in their upright positions. Prevent placing any aqueous or solid (i.e. conductors) bodies on top of the battery.

•	It is extremely dangerous to use tools, such as hammers, on the battery terminals when connecting cables to the mounted battery.

Battery on Vehicle

•	When storing the vehicle for long periods of time, make sure to remove the memory fuse at junction box to prevent natural discharging.

•	Also, run the engine for battery charging within 1 month if the memory fuse wasn't removed from the start of vehicle storing. If the memory fuse was removed, run the engine for battery charging within 3 months from the start of vehicle storing.

After reconnecting or recharging a discharged battery, the ESP OFF indicator may illuminate.

In this case, turn the handle half way to the left and right whilst the ignition switch is in the ON position.

Then, restart the engine after the ignition is OFF.

The ESP OFF indicator may turn OFF.

If the ESP OFF indicator does not turn OFF, have the system checked. (Refer to the DTC guide)
