Subject: | Battery Maintenance Information for Vehicles in Storage - Shunt Connector OFF |
Models: | 2007 Chevrolet Epica |
Attention: | This bulletin does NOT apply to vehicles sold in Canada. |
The purpose of this bulletin is to inform dealers of a new method of preventive maintenance for batteries of vehicles in storage. All 2007 Chevrolet Epica vehicles are shipped with the shunt connector in the OFF position. This shunt connector is located
in the left I/P fuse panel.
The following components will not operate when the shunt connector is in the OFF position:
• | Key reminder illumination |
Important: The shunt connector should be moved to the ON position (1) prior to customer test drives or delivery of vehicle to customers. Remove the shunt connector and re-install it with the locking tab towards the ON label.
If the vehicle will sit for extended periods, the shunt connector position should be moved to the OFF position to prevent accessories from placing a parasitic load on the battery.
