How to Handle Battery
CAUTION:
After connecting battery cables, ensure that they are tightly clamped to battery terminals for good contact.
WHERE TO CONNECT JUMPER CABLE WHEN THE 12V BATTERY IS DISCHARGED
CAUTION:
-
If it becomes necessary to start the engine with a booster battery and jumper cables, use a 12-volt booster battery.


: Positive terminal for connecting jumper cable
(Jumper cable negative terminal is used for connecting to the engine assembly.)
METHODS OF PREVENTING OVER-DISCHARGE
The following precautions must be taken to prevent over-discharging a battery.
-
The battery surface (particularly its top) should always be kept clean and dry.

-
The terminal connections should be clean and tight.
-
When the vehicle is not going to be used over a long period of time, disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal. (If the vehicle has an extended storage fuse switch, turn it off.)

VISUAL INSPECTION
-
Check battery case for cracks or bends.
-
Check battery terminals for damage.
Are these inspection results normal?
YES>>GO TO 2.
NO>>Replace battery. Refer to Removal and Installation.
CAPACITY TEST
Check battery voltage.
Is the voltage 12.35 V or more?
YES >>GO TO 3.
NO>>GO TO 4.
LOAD TEST
-
Check battery type and determine the specified current using the table.
Type Current (A) L4–EFB 760 -
Read load tester voltage when specified discharging current flows through battery for 15 seconds.
NOTE:
Follow tool manufacturers operating instructions when performing load test.
Is the voltage 10 V or more?
YES >>GO TO 5.
NO>>Replace battery. Refer to Removal and Installation.
CHARGE
Charge battery, following the instructions below:

Constant current charging may damage batteries. Therefore, charge battery by constant voltage charge mode with the maximum voltage set at 15 V.
-
Charge at least 6 hours or until the charge current becomes 4 amps or less.
>>
GO TO 3.
CHECK BATTERY
With CONSULT
-
Ignition switch ON.
-
Select “DATA MONITOR” in “IPDM E/R” using CONSULT
-
Check that “Battery discharge count” indication.
Monitor item Indication Battery discharge count Less than 65,000
Is the inspection result normal?
YES>>INSPECTION END.
