I just checked on the web. This codes means you will not damage anything. You should erase the codes before driving, and see which one comes again.

YES.
Dont disconnect the battery to clear codes unless you read them out first.
And then if you have a diagnostic tool hooked to it to read the codes, you can just clear them.

Nothing, it may be a false detection. But you have probably not met the same driving conditions. It will come back if it needs to. To activate a diagnosis you have to meet the conditions that are calibrated for this specific diagnosis. They are different for each diagnosis. For something that set the CEL but are not too bad, you may have to drive 3 driving cycles (From cold start to warm) before it pop up the CEL. The car manufacturer don't want to make a false detection.

Yes, no worry. If there's something wrong, the OBD will tell you.
