Replacing dead battery - is there anything I should know before I do the swap

Use your phone camera and take a picture of the way the old battery is in it now... DO NOT touch the cables in reverse polarity!!!!!!! Positive to Positive... Negative to Negative ONLY!!!!!.. Refer to owners manual.... IF any doubt AT ALL, get some hands-on help!!!!

When you install the new battery, put ONLY the positive cable on first. Before putting on the negative cable, turn the key to the II position, then install the negative cable. This prevents damage to the SRS system, it's said, and resets dome minor sensors or what in the system. **If the battery has been disconnected for more than 15 minutes, I believe, the computer resets to factory defaults. There's a relearning procedure to go through so that the computer adapts properly, supposedly making the car run properly.
