The wet-cell lead-acid battery is rated by ampere/hours (Ah) and cold cranking amps (CCA) listed on the battery. The battery is mounted in the right side of the trunk or cargo compartment, underneath the floor trim. Underneath the vehicle at the battery box are two power transfer points for the two cables that run to the engine compartment. One cable goes to the jump start terminal in the engine compartment and then connects to the
Starter and
Alternator. The second cable is used to supply power to engine electronics (DME and Vaivetronic). The power cables are routed in a protected area underneath the body of the vehicle.
