2. Remove the screw on each side of the engine compartment holding the rally bar in place.
3. Lift out the rally bar.
> The battery can now be removed (see the instructions in the previous section).
• After a new battery has been installed (see the following section), reinstall the rally bar in the reverse order.
NOTE
When reinstalling the rally bar, tighten the screws to 22 ft lbs (30 Nm).
