Disconnection
WARNING: Batteries normally produce explosive gases that can cause injury. Therefore, keep fire, sparks, or flammable substances away from the battery. Always protect your face and eyes when charging or working near the battery. Always provide adequate ventilation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury.
WARNING: Batteries contain sulfuric acid, so avoid contact of electrolyte with skin, eyes and clothing. When working near the battery, wear protective glasses to protect against possible splashes of battery acid. If acid comes into contact with skin or eyes, immediately flush the affected area with water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention. If acid is swallowed, seek immediate medical attention. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury.
WARNING: Do not use audio code storage devices when working on the auxiliary restraint system or the fuel system. Using these devices will leave the vehicle's electrical system live, but at a reduced current. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Before disconnecting the battery ground cable, make sure the engine is not running to avoid damaging the vehicle's electrical system.
NOTE: Before disconnecting the battery, ensure that no data is required from the powertrain control module (PCM) as disconnecting the battery cable will clear all fault codes and idle/run parameters stored in the non-volatile memory (KAM). It is not necessary to disconnect or remove any electronic control modules.
NOTE: This procedure should be used to disconnect the battery when performing repairs that require the battery to be disconnected.
1. Determine and record the audio unit code and radio station frequency presets.
2. Disconnect the ground wire from the battery.

CAUTION: Before connecting the battery ground cable, make sure all electrical systems are turned off to avoid damage to the vehicle's electrical system.
1. Connect the battery ground wire.
2. Enter the audio block code and tune the radio station frequencies.
3. Set the clock to the correct time.
4.
NOTE: If the battery is disconnected and then reconnected, the idle and running parameters stored in the powertrain control module (PCM) memory will be erased. To allow the PCM to learn the idle and running parameters, the following steps must be performed.
Start the engine and let it idle for three minutes.
5. When the engine has warmed up to normal operating temperature, increase the engine speed to 1200 rpm and maintain this speed for approximately two minutes.
6. Drive the vehicle for approximately five miles/eight kilometers, changing driving modes.
