Always disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal FIRST and hook it up LAST or the battery may be shorted by the tool being used to loosen the cable clamps. Some systems on the vehicle require battery power to be available at all times, either to maintain continuous operation (alarm system, power door locks, etc.), or to maintain control unit memory (radio station presets, Powertrain Control Module and other control units). When the battery is disconnected, the power that maintains these systems is cut. So, before you disconnect the battery, please note that on a vehicle with power door locks, it's a wise precaution to remove the key from the ignition and to keep it with you, so that it does not get locked inside if the power door locks should engage accidentally when the battery is reconnected! Devices known as "memory savers" can be used to avoid some of these problems. Precise details vary according to the device used. The typical memory saver is plugged into the cigarette lighter and is connected to a spare battery. Then the vehicle battery can be disconnected from the electrical system. The memory saver will provide sufficient current to maintain audio unit security codes, PCM memory, etc. and will provide power to always hot circuits such as the clock and radio memory circuits. To disconnect the battery for service procedures requiring power to be cut from the vehicle, loosen the cable end bolt and disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Isolate the cable end to prevent it from coming into accidental contact with the battery terminal.

To remove corrosion, use a solution of water and baking soda. Cover damaged metal parts with zinc-based primer and paint.

Start by removing the cable from the negative terminal, followed by the cable from the positive terminal.

A trickle charger usually takes approximately 12-16 hours for a full charge.

Memory-savers are devices that can be used to avoid cutting off power to certain systems when the battery is disconnected. They are plugged into the cigarette lighter and connected to a spare battery, providing sufficient current to maintain audio unit security codes, PCM memory, and power to always hot circuits such as the clock and radio memory circuits.

Follow the same steps as removing the battery. Additionally, remove the air filter housing and then remove the battery tray fasteners.
