Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Repair Procedures: Installation
- Install in the reverse order of removal.
- For the vehicle equipped with a battery sensor, be careful not to damage the battery sensor when replacing or recharging the battery.
- When replacing the battery, a battery of the same type, capacity and brand as the previously installed battery should be used. If the vehicle is replaced with a battery of a different type, the battery sensor may recognize it as abnormal.
- When installing the battery, fix the mounting bracket on the tray correctly.
- When installing the ground cable on the negative post of battery, tighten the clamp to the specified torque. Excessive tightening can damage the PCB internal circuit and the battery terminal.
- After disconnecting then reconnecting the battery negative cable, reset some parts that require the reset procedures.
