■ Installation procedure
①Remove the original battery clamp
Use a ratchet wrench and deep socket wrench to loosen the nuts on both ends of the original battery clamp.
Next, use only a socket wrench to remove the nut and remove the original clamp.
*The removed nuts will be reused. Be careful not to drop them in the engine compartment or lose them.
②Install the AutoExe battery clamp
Install by reversing the procedure for removing the original battery clamps.
AutoExePlace the battery clamps on the vehicle body mounting parts and install the nuts on the left and right.
