Servicing the Battery
Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer
and reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling.
Warning
Important Do not jump start the vehicle.
Always keep the battery clean and fully charged. Use a
paper towel to clean the battery and battery box. If the
battery terminals are corroded, clean them with a solution
of four parts water and one part baking soda. Apply a light
coating of grease to the battery terminals to prevent
corrosion.
Voltage: 12 volt with 280 cold cranking Amps @ 0°F
(–18°C).
Removing the Battery
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface, set the parking
brake, turn the ignition off, and remove key.
2. Raise the bed and secure with the prop rod.
3. Remove the battery hold-down.
4. Disconnect the negative (black) ground cable from the

vehicle and cables, causing sparks. Sparks can
cause the battery gasses to explode, resulting in
personal injury.
• Always disconnect the negative (black) battery
cable before disconnecting the positive (red)
cable.
• Always reconnect the positive (red) battery cable
before reconnecting the negative (black) cable.
