Installation

1. Install in the reverse order of removal. Battery Negative (-) Terminal Nut Tightening: 4.0 ~ 6 N·m

   For a vehicle equipped with a battery sensor, be careful not to damage the battery sensor when replacing or recharging the battery. When replacing the battery, it must be the same type, capacity and brand as the one originally installed in your vehicle. If a battery of a different type is installed, the battery sensor may recognize the battery as abnormal. When installing the ground cable to the negative battery terminal, tighten the clamp to the specified torque. Excessive tightening torque may damage the internal circuit of the printed circuit board and the battery terminal. When charging the battery, ground the negative terminal of the auxiliary battery to the vehicle body.

Adjustment

Battery Sensor Recalibration Procedure: After reconnecting the negative battery cable, the AMS function does not operate until the system stabilizes, approximately 4 hours. If the negative (-) battery cable is disconnected from the battery during repair of a vehicle equipped with AMS, the battery sensor recalibration procedure must be performed after the repair work is completed.

1. 1
   Turn the ignition switch ON and OFF.
2. 2
   Park the vehicle for approximately 4 hours with the hood closed and all doors closed.
