7-16 Maintenance

Battery lead disconnection
Note:
• Upon battery lead reconnection the

radio security code will be required

and the clock will need to be reset.

• Electrically operated door windows

must be reset to learn the anti-trap

function.

• If the battery is disconnected for more

than 72 hours the radio preset

channels will need to be reset upon

battery reconnection.

• The trip computer will lose all

recorded trip data and all trip

functions will be reset to zero. The

vehicle total odometer reading is

retained.

Caution:

1. Under no circumstances should a

battery be disconnected whilst
the ignition circuit is live, as
permanent damage to the
instrument cluster may occur.

2. Disconnect the negative lead

(earth terminal) first.

Open the bonnet and unclip the battery

box cover.
Slacken the negative lead pinch bolt and

disconnect the negative (–) battery lead.

Slacken the positive lead pinch bolt and

disconnect the positive (+) battery lead.
Clean the battery posts and coat the post

bases with petroleum jelly.

Battery lead connection
Note:
Upon battery reconnection the

security system will be armed. Opening

any protected entry will sound the alarm.

Make sure that a key or key transmitter is

available.

Caution:

Do not overtighten the

pinch bolts.
Connect the positive (+) lead, tighten the

pinch bolt and clip the positive terminal

cover on the battery. Connect the

negative (–) lead and tighten the pinch

bolt.

After the battery has been reconnected

and the ignition switch is turned to

position ‘II’, the message centre display, if

fitted, will initially show an erroneous

reading i.e. – – – – – –. This will remain

until after the bulb check sequence, when

the correct recorded mileage will be

displayed. This is a normal function of the

instrument cluster.
Note: When the battery is disconnected

and reconnected, some abnormal drive

symptoms may occur while the vehicle

relearns it’s adaptive strategy. The vehicle

may need to be driven 16 kilometres

(10 miles) or more to relearn the strategy.
Reset the clock to the correct time.
The radio will not operate until the

correct security code has been

re-entered. Refer to the Audio Systems

Handbook.
Reset the window anti-trap feature.
