12-Volt Battery Requirement
At the hybrid battery appointment, Green Bean Battery installers will test the 12-volt battery. If it fails, and no replacement has been purchased from Green Bean, you must provide proof of purchase and installation of an Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) battery. If a non-AGM battery is installed, it must be replaced with an AGM battery (Honda hybrid vehicles are excluded).
