Gas props support the liftgate in the open position. However , because the gas pressur e drops with tempera- ture, it may be necessary to assist the pr ops when opening the liftgate in cold weather . SEA T STORAGE BIN SAFETY W ARNING W ARNING! Always close the storage bin covers when your vehicle is unattended.
NOTE: In the event of an individual being locked inside the storage bin, the storage bin cover can be opened from inside of the bin by pulling on the glow-in-the-dark strap attached to the storage bin cover latching mechanism.
Push the strap into the latch mechanism until it engages around the latch post. NOTE: Do not use the storage bin emergency r elease to lift the storage bin cover . The strap is intended for emergency r elease only . OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems.
W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buck- led up. Y ou can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled up properly .
W ARNING! • It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions 1. Enter the vehicle and close the door . Sit back and adjust the seat. 2. The seat belt latch plate is near the seatback of the front seats and next to your arm in the r ear seats. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt.
3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click”. W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries.
4. Position the lap belt acr oss your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt. T o loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
6. T o release the belt, push the r ed button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow the belt to retract fully . W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer a lower position, and if you ar e taller than average, you’ll prefer a higher position. When you r elease the anchorage, try to move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position.
W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too loose or too high is dangerous. • A belt worn too loose can allow you to slip down and under the belt in a collision. • A belt that is too high will apply crash forces to the abdomen, not to the stronger hip bones.
chime and flash the Seat Belt W arning Light for 96 seconds or until the driver’s or front passenger’s seat belt is buckled. The Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) will be reacti- vated if the driver’s or front passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled for more than 10 seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
The Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) can be reacti- vated by repeating this pr ocedure. NOTE: Although the Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) has been deactivated, the Seat Belt W arning Light will continue to illuminate while the driver’s or front passenger’s seat belt r emains unbuckled.
Driver And Front Passenger Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) — Airbags This vehicle has airbags for both the driver and front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s front airbag is mounted in the center of the steering wheel.
The front airbags have a multi stage inflator design. This may allow the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on collision severity and occupant size. Also, the front passenger airbag is certified to the Federal regulations that define Occupant Classification (Refer to “Occupant Classification System” in this section).
W ARNING! • Do not put anything on or around the airbag covers or attempt to manually open them. Y ou may damage the airbags and you could be in- jured because the airbags are not there to protect you. These protective covers for the airbag cush- ions are designed to open only when the airbags are inflating.
NOTE: The passenger front airbag may not deploy even when the driver front airbag has if the Occupant Classi- fication System (refer to “Occupant Classification Sys- tem” in this section) has determined the seat is empty or is occupied by a child.
Y ou should read the instructions pr ovided with your child restraint to make sur e that you are using it pr operly . 2. All occupants should wear their lap and shoulder belts properly . 3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the front airbags room to inflate.
Airbag System Components The airbag system consists of the following: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • AIRBAG Light • Driver Airbag • Front Passenger Airbag • Supplemental Side Curtai.
proper rate of inflation. The fr ont airbag inflators are designed to provide dif ferent rates of airbag inflation. • The ORC may modify the rate of inflation based on the occupant size provided by the Occupant Classification Module. • The ORC will not detect side, roll over , or rear impacts.
• The Driver and Passenger Airbag/Inflator Units are located in the center of the steering wheel and the right side of the instrument panel. When the ORC and impact sensors detects a collision requiring the air - bags, it signals the inflator units.
• When the ORC and the side impact sensors (with side impact option) detects a collision requiring the Driver Inflatable Knee Blocker , it signals the inflator unit. A quantity of nontoxic gas is generated to inflate the Driver Inflatable Knee Blocker .
and cushion needs to be serviced in any way (includ- ing removal or loosening/tightening of seat attach- ment bolts), take the vehicle to your authorized dealer .
indicator light comes on when an adult is in the passen- ger seat, have the passenger re-position themselves in the seat until the light goes out. Remember , if the P AD indicator light is illuminated the passenger front airbag will not inflate.
turned OFF . When the OCS system detects an adult the P AD indicator light will be off, and the airbag will be enabled. • The Belt T ension Sensor (BTS) — If Equipped is located at the outboard passenger lap belt anchor . The BTS generates a signal based on outboard lap belt tension.
The following requir ements must be strictly adhered to: • Do not modify the front passenger seat assembly or components in any way . • Do not modify the front seat center console or center position seat in any way . • Do not use prior or future model year seat covers not designated for the specific model being repair ed.
If you do have a collision which deploys the airbags, any or all of the following may occur: • The nylon airbag material may sometimes cause abra- sions and/or skin reddening to the driver and fr ont passenger as the airbags deploy and unfold.
Enhanced Accident Response If the airbags and seat belt pretensioners deploy after an impact and the electrical system remains functional, vehicles equipped with power door locks will unlock automatically .
W ARNING! • Y ou need proper knee impact protection in a collision. Do not mount or locate any aftermarket equipment on or behind the knee bolsters. • It is dangerous to try to repair any part of the airbag system yourself. Be sure to tell anyone who works on your vehicle that it has airbags.
Event Data Recorder (EDR) In the event of an airbag deployment, your vehicle is designed to recor d up to 2-seconds of specific vehicle data parameters (see list below) in an event data recor der prior to the moment of airbag deployment. Please note that such data are ONL Y recor ded if an airbag deploys, and are otherwise unavailable.
1. Used for resear ch purposes, such as to match data with a particular crash recor d in an aggregate database, provided confidentiality of personal data is ther eafter preserved 2. Used in defense of litigation involving a DaimlerChrysler Corporation product 3.
T o obtain Integrated Child Seat replacement instructions: Use the order form at the back of this manual and specify publication number 81-016-1950. Child Restraint Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up at all times — babies and children, too.
• Safety experts recommend that childr en ride rearwar d-facing in the vehicle until they are at least one year old and weigh at least 20 lbs (9 kg). T wo types of child restraints can be used r earward-facing: infant carriers and ⬙ convertible ⬙ child seats.
child’s back is against the seat back, they should use a belt-positioning booster seat. The child and booster seat are held in the vehicle by the lap/shoulder belt.
Here are some tips on getting the most out of your child restraint: • Before buying any r estraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets all applicable Safety Standards. W e also recommend that you make sure that you can install the child restraint in the vehicle where you will use it, befor e you buy it.
• Buckle the child into the seat according to the child restraint manufactur er’s directions. • When your child restraint is not in use, secur e it in the vehicle with the seat belt or remove it fr om the vehicle. Don’t leave it loose in the vehicle.
When using the tether anchorages in the outboard seat- ing positions, ensure that the strap is r outed over the top of the seatback and under the head restraint between the head restraint posts.
W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. Child restraint systems having attachments designed to connect to the lower anchorages are now available.
seat belt is tucked behind the child restraint and out of reach. If the buckled seat belt interfer es with the child restraint installation, instead of tucking the seat belt behind the child restraint, r oute the seat belt through the child restraint belt path and then buckle it.
In general, you will first loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and tether straps so that you can more easily attach the hook or connector to the lower anchorages and tether anchorages. Then tighten all three straps as you push the child restraint r earward and downwar d into the seat.
infant carrier in a vehicle without rear seats. In an accident, serious injury or death may occur from the deploying passenger air bag. This vehicle is equipped with a child restraint tether anchor located on the floor , behind the front passenger seat.
F ACING TO THE REAR IN A VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH THE REAR SEA T DELETE FEA TURE (Com- mercial V ehicles Only). When a convertible seat is properly installed forwar d facing, the vehicle seat should be adjusted to the rear most position.
2. Extend the child r estraint tether anchor forward to- wards the fr ont passenger seat. 3. Follow the child r estraint manufacturer’s directions for proper use of connecting the child r estraint to the extended tether strap.
6. Using the hook attached to the child r estraint tether strap, attach the child restraint tether strap to the metal ring on the vehicle tether anchor . 7. Following the child seat manufactur er’s instructions, tighten the child restraint tether strap.
W ARNING! The vehicle tether anchor is designed to be used with a child restraint only . It should not be used for any other purpose. Before use inspect the tether anchor strap for nicks, abrasions, discoloration, and loose threads.
SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO) which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. T o avoid breathing (CO) follow the safety tips below .
Airbag Light The light should come on and remain on for 6 to 8 seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the LED is not lit during starting, have it checked. If the light stays on or comes on while driving, have the system checked by an authorized dealer .

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. W ARNING! • Be sure to turn off the engine if you want to rest or sleep in your car . Accidents can be caused by inadvertently moving the gear selection lever or by pressing the accelerator pedal.
Automatic T ransmission The gear selector must be in the NEUTRAL or P ARK position before you can start the engine. Depr ess the brake pedal before shifting into any driving gear . Normal Starting (Above 32°F / 0°C) 1. Do not depr ess the accelerator .
If Engine Fails T o Start If the engine fails to start after you have followed the “Normal Starting” procedur e, it may be flooded. Push the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor and hold it there while cranking the engine. This should clear any excess fuel in case the engine is flooded.
W ARNING! Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. V ehicles equipped with an automatic trans- mission cannot be started this way . Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic converter and once the engine has started, ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.
ENGINE BLOCK HEA TER — IF EQUIPPED The engine block heater warms engine coolant and permits quicker starts in cold weather . Connect the cord to a standard 1 10-1 15 volt AC electrical outlet with a grounded, thr ee-wire extension cor d. The engine block heater cord is r outed under the hood on the driver side of the vehicle.
W ARNING! It is dangerous to shift the selector lever out of “P” or “N” if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in re- verse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
Reset Mode - Electronic T ransmission The transmission is monitored electr onically for abnor- mal conditions. If a condition is detected that could cause damage, the transmission automatically shifts into sec- ond gear . The transmission remains in second gear despite the forward gear selected.
W ARNING! Never use Park position on an automatic transmis- sion as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage. “R” Reverse Shift into this range only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
occur only to prevent engine overspeed while downshifts occur earlier than other gear range selections. NOTE: The vehicle computer will over ride Overdrive and “3” Drive ranges by changing shift points if the transmission operating temperature exceeds acceptable limits.
Be sure the parking brake is firmly set when parked and the gear shift lever is in the P ARK position. When parking on a hill you should apply the parking brake before placing the gear shift lever in P ARK, otherwise the load on the transmission locking mechanism may make it difficult to move the selector out of P ARK.
When parking on a hill, turn the front wheels towar d the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. The parking brake should always be applied whenever the driver is not in the vehicle.
W ARNING! • Anti-lock system (ABS) cannot prevent the natu- ral laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency be- yond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
When the vehicle is driven over approximately 7 mph (1 1 km/h), you may also hear a slight clicking sound as well as some related motor noises. These noises ar e the system performing its self check cycle to ensure that the ABS system is working properly .
TRACTION CONTROL — IF EQUIPPED This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, brake pressur e is applied to the slipping wheel(s) and engine power is reduced to pr ovide enhanced acceleration and stability .
• There is a T raction Contr ol System malfunction • The system has been deactivated to prevent damage to the brake system due to overheated brake tempera- tures NOTE: The T raction Control will make buzzing or clicking sounds when in operation.
W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced power steering assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible. CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and it should be avoided when possible.
T raction When driving on wet or slushy roads, it is possible for a wedge of water to build up between the tire and r oad surface. This is known as hydroplaning and may cause partial or complete loss of vehicle control and stopping ability . T o reduce this possibility , the following precau- tions should be observed: 1.
• European Metric tir e sizing is based on European design standards. T ires designed to this standar d have the tire size molded into the sidewall beginning with the section width. The letter ⬙ P ⬙ is absent from this tir e size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H • L T (Light T ruck)-Metric tire sizing is based on U.
EXAMPLE: 31 = Overall Diameter in Inches (in) 215 = Section W idth in Millimeters (mm) 65 = Aspect Ratio in Percent (%) —Ratio of section height to section width of tire. 10.5 = Section W idth in Inches (in) R = Construction Code — ⬙ R ⬙ means Radial Construction.
EXAMPLE: —The maximum speed corresponding to the Speed Symbol should only be achieved un- der specified operating conditions (i.e. tire pr essure, vehicle loading, r oad conditions, and posted speed limits).
EXAMPLE: DOT MA L9 ABCD 0301 DOT = Department of T ransportation —This symbol certifies that the tire is in compliance with the U.S. Department of T ransportation tir e safety standards, and is appr oved for highway use. MA = Code repr esenting the tire manufacturing location.
Tire Loading and T ire Pressure T ire Placard Location NOTE: The proper cold tir e inflation pressur e is listed on either the face of the driver’s door or the driver’s side “B” pillar .
This placard tells you important information about the: 1) number of people that can be carried in the vehicle 2) the total weight your vehicle can carry 3) the tire size designed for your vehicle 4) the cold tire inflation pr essures for the fr ont, rear , and spare tir es.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and pas- sengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds. 4. The r esulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity . For example, if “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb.
ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 335 5.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
2. Economy— Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tr ead life resulting in a need for earlier tire r eplacement. Under inflation, also increases tire r olling resistance and r esults in higher fuel consump- tion.
The pressur e should be checked and adjusted as well as inspecting for signs of tire wear or visible damage at least once a month. Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pr essure. Do not make a visual judgement when determining proper inflation.
Example: If garage temperature = 68 °F (20 °C) and the outside temperature = 32 °F (0 °C) then the cold tir e inflation pressur e should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12 °F (7 °C) for this outside temperature condition.
Cuts and punctures in radial tir es are r epairable only in the tread ar ea because of sidewall flexing. Consult your authorized tire dealer for radial tir e repairs. Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped The compact spare is for temporary emer gency use with radial tires.
CAUTION! Because of the reduced ground clearance, do not take your vehicle through an automatic car wash with the compact spare installed. Damage to the vehicle may result. Limited Use Spare — If Equipped The limited use spare tir e is for temporary emergency use on your vehicle.
W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone.
Life of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combina- tions of unapproved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance charac- teristics, resulting in changes to steering, han- dling, and braking of your vehicle.
Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration. V ibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of- balance. Proper balancing will r educe vibration and avoid tire cupping and spotty wear . TIRE CHAINS Use only compact chains, or other traction aids that meet SAE type “Class S” specifications.
NOTE: In order to avoid damage to tir es, chains, and your vehicle do not drive for a prolonged period of time on dry pavement. Observe the tire chain manufactur er’s instructions on method of installation, operating speed, and conditions for usage.
Section of this manual. More fr equent rotation is permis- sible if desired. The r easons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to r otation being per- formed. The suggested rotation method is the “forwar d-cross” shown in the following diagram.
• The T ire Pressur e Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure if the tir e pressure falls below the low pressur e warning threshold for any reason, including low temperatur e effects.
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure W arnings The T ire Pressur e Monitoring T elltale Lamp will illuminate in the instrument cluster and an audible chime will be activated when one or more of the four active road tir e pressur es are low . The audible chime will sound once every ignition cycle for each low tire condition that it detects.

This sequence will repeat for every key cycle until the original TPMS tire has been pr operly repair ed (or replaced) and put back on the vehicle in place of the compact spare tir e. General Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS 210 of Industry Canada.
Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as har d starting, stalling and hesitations. If you experience these symptoms, try another brand of “regular” gasoline be- fore considering service for the vehicle.
CAUTION! DO NOT use gasolines containing Methanol or E85 Ethanol. Use of these blends may result in starting and driveability problems and may damage critical fuel system components. Problems that r esult from using methanol/gasoline or E85 Ethanol blends are not the r esponsibility of the manufacturer .
Fuel System Cautions CAUTION! Follow these guidelines to maintain your vehicle’s performance: • The use of leaded gas is prohibited by Federal law .
• Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas which can kill. Never run the engine in a closed ar ea, such as a garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running for an extended period.
NOTE: The driver’s side sliding door cannot be opened while the fuel door is open. This feature operates only when the sliding door is fully closed prior to opening the fuel door .
NOTE: When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full. W ARNING! • Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the gas cap is removed or the tank filled.
• If the problem continues, the message will appear the next time the vehicle is started. See Section 7 of this manual for more information. Make sur e that the fuel filler cap is tightened each time the vehicle is refueled.
ETHANOL FUEL (E-85) E-85 is a mixture of appr oximately 85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. W ARNING! Ethanol vapors are extremely flammable and could cause serious personal injury . Never have any smok- ing materials lit in or near the vehicle when remov- ing the fuel filler tube cap (gas cap) or filling the tank.
For best results, a r efueling pattern that alternates be- tween E-85 and unleaded gasoline should be avoided. When you do switch fuels, it is recommended that • you do not switch when the fuel gaug.
Cruising Range Because E-85 fuel contains less energy per gallon than gasoline, you will experience an increase in fuel con- sumption. Y ou can expect your MPG and your driving range to decrease by about 30% compar ed to gasoline operation.
V ehicle Certification Label Y our vehicle has a certification label attached to the driver’s door pillar . The label contains the following information: • Name of manufacturer • Month and year .
Tire Size The tire size on the Label r epresents the actual tir e size on your vehicle. Replacement tires must be equal to the load capacity of this tire size.

Service Manuals are available which include detailed service information for your vehicle. Refer to these manuals before attempting any pr ocedure yourself.
Engine Oil Checking Oil Level T o assure pr oper engine lubrication, the engine oil must be maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at regular intervals, such as every fuel stop.
Change Engine Oil Road conditions and your kind of driving affects the interval at which your oil should be changed. Check the following list to see if any apply to you. • Day or night temperatures ar e below 32°F (0°C). • Stop and Go driving. • Extensive engine idling.
American Petroleum Institute (API) Engine Oil Identification Symbol This symbol means that the oil has been certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API). The manufacturer only r ecommends API Certified engine oils. Engine Oil V iscosity (SAE Grade) — 2.
Synthetic Engine Oils There ar e a number of engine oils being promoted as either synthetic or semi-synthetic. If you chose to use such a product, use only those oils that ar e American Petroleum Institute (API) Certified and have the r ecom- mended SAE viscosity grade.
Belts should be inspected for evidence of cuts, cracks, or glazing, and replaced if ther e is indication of damage which could result in belt failur e. If adjustment is re- quired, the belts must be adjusted accor ding to the specifications and procedur es described in the Service Manual.
W ARNING! The air cleaner can provide a measure of protection in the case of engine backfire. Do not remove the air cleaner unless such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance. Make sure that no one is near the engine compartment before starting the vehicle with the air cleaner removed.
NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. W ARNING! A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over materials that can burn. Such materials might be grass or leaves coming into contact with your ex- haust system.
• Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected or removed, such as when diagnostic testing, or for prolonged periods during very r ough idling or malfunctioning operating conditions. Maintenance-Free Battery The top of the MAINTENANCE-FREE battery is perma- nently sealed.
CAUTION! • It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post and the negative cable is attached to the negative post. Battery posts are marked posi- tive (+) and negative (-) and identified on the battery case.

Steering Shaft Seal The steering shaft seal, at the point where the shaft passes through the bulkhead, is lubricated when it is installed. If the seal becomes noisy when the steering shaft is turned, it should be lubricated with a multi-purpose grease.
The external lock cylinders should be lubricated twice a year , preferably in the fall and spring. Apply a small amount of a high quality lubricant such as Mopar 威 Lock Cylinder Lubricant directly into the lock cylinder .
Exhaust System The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust system. Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust system, .
Cooling System W ARNING! • When working near the radiator cooling fan, dis- connect the fan motor lead or turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. The fan is temperature controlled and can start at any time the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Cooling System — Drain, Flush and Refill At the intervals shown on the Maintenance Schedules, the system should be drained, flushed and refilled. If the solution is dirty or contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable cooling system cleaner .
Adding Engine Coolant Y our vehicle has been built with an improved engine coolant that allows extended maintenance intervals. This coolant can be used up to 5 Y ears or 100,000 miles before replacement. T o prevent reducing this extended mainte- nance period, it is important that you use the same coolant throughout the life of your vehicle.
W ARNING! • The warning words “DO NOT OPEN HOT” on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety pre- caution. Never add coolant when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system.
The radiator normally remains completely full, so ther e is no need to remove the radiator cap unless checking for coolant freeze point or r eplacing coolant. Advise your service attendant of this. As long as the engine operating temperature is satisfactory , the coolant bottle need only be checked once a month.
• Make sure that the radiator and coolant r ecovery bottle overflow hoses are not kinked or obstr ucted. • Keep the front of the radiator clean. If your vehicle is equipped with air conditioning, keep the front of the condenser clean, also. • Do not change the thermostat for summer or winter operation.
W ARNING! Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly an accident. Driving with your foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can result in abnormally high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear , and possible brake damage. Y ou wouldn’t have your full braking capacity in an emergency .
replaced immediately! Eventual deterioration of the hose can take place resulting in a possibility of a burst failur e. W ARNING! W orn brake hoses can burst and cause brake failure. Y ou could have an accident. If you see any signs of cracking, scuffing, or worn spots, have the brake hoses replaced immediately .
W ARNING! Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts and the brake fluid catching fire. Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed container to avoid contamination from for eign matter or moisture.
The dipstick is located just behind the radiator , lower right side. Selection of Lubricant It is important that the proper lubricant is used in the transmission to assure optimum transmission perfor - mance. Use only manufacturers r ecommended transmis- sion fluid, refer to Fluids, Lubricants and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.
Procedure For Checking Fluid Level The fluid level in the automatic transmission should be checked whenever the vehicle is serviced. Operation with an improper fluid level will gr eatly reduce the life of the transmission and of the fluid. T o properly check the automatic transmission fluid level, the following procedur e must be used: 1.
CAUTION! Do not overfill. Dirt and water in the transmission can cause serious damage. T o prevent dirt and water from entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is reseated properly .
