Honda HR-V: Battery
Checking the Battery
The battery condition is being monitored by the sensor on the negative terminal. If there is a problem with the sensor, the warning message on the information display will let you know. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
Check the battery terminals for corrosion monthly.
If your vehicle's battery is disconnected or goes dead:
- The audio system is disabled.
- The clock resets.
- The navigation system* is disabled.
WARNING
The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to explode with enough force to kill or seriously hurt you.
When conducting any battery maintenance, wear protective clothing and a face shield, or have a skilled technician do it.
WARNING: Battery post, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds.
Wash your hands after handling.
When replacing the battery, the replacement must be of the same specifications.
Consult a dealer for more information.
Charging the Battery
Disconnect both battery cables to prevent damaging your vehicle's electrical system.
Always disconnect the negative (-) cable first, and reconnect it last.
When you find corrosion, clean the battery terminals by applying a baking powder and water solution.
Clean the terminals with a damp towel. Cloth/towel dry the battery. Coat the terminals with grease to help prevent future corrosion.
