A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS The dealer that sold you your new vehicle has the key code numbers for your vehicle locks. These numbers can be used to order duplicate keys fr om your dealer . Ask your dealer for these numbers and keep them in a safe place. The double sided keys may be inserted into the locks with either side up.
Manual T ransaxle Depress and hold the r elease button located between the ignition switch and the instrument panel. T urn the igni- tion key to LOCK and remove the key . W ARNING! Leaving children in a vehicle unattended is danger- ous for a number of reasons.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the ignition switch, sounds a signal to remind you to r emove the key . NOTE: W ith the driver’s door open, and the key in the ignition, the power door locks will not lock via the interior door lock switch.
• Exxon/Mobil Speed Pass,™ additional Sentry Keys, or any other transponder equipped components on the same keychain will not cause a key-related (tran- sponder) fault unless the additional part is physi- cally held against the ignition key being used when starting the vehicle.
4. Insert a blank Sentry Key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch ON within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds a single chime will sound. The Theft Alarm Light will stop flashing, turn on for 3 seconds; then turn off. The new Sentry Key has been programmed.
Automatic T ransaxle Ignition Interlock System This system prevents the key fr om being removed unless the shift lever is in P ARK and the shift knob push-button is fully released. It also pr events shifting out of P ARK unless the key is in the ON/RUN or ST AR T positions and you have depressed the brake pedal.
W ARNING! When leaving the vehicle always remove the key from the ignition lock, and lock your vehicle. Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may cause severe personal inju- ries and death.
4. A single chime will sound to signify that you have successfully disabled the double activation feature. Y ou can turn the feature back on by r epeating the above mentioned procedur e. Y ou can turn the feature back on by r epeating the above mentioned procedur e.
Child-Protection Door Lock System (Rear Doors) T o provide a safer envir onment for children riding in the rear seat, the r ear doors of your vehicle have the child- protection door lock system. T o use the system, open each rear door and slide the control UP to engage the locks and DOWN to disengage the child-protection locks.
INTERNAL EMERGENCY TRUNK LID RELEASE W ARNING! Do not allow children to have access to the trunk, either by climbing into the trunk from outside, or through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the trunk lid when your vehicle is unattended. Once in the trunk, young children may not be able to escape, even if they entered through the rear seat.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTR Y — IF EQUIPPED This system allows you to lock or unlock the doors and trunk or activate the panic alarm fr om distances up to about 23 feet (7 meters) using a hand held transmitter . NOTE: A slight delay of up to two seconds can occur before the doors or tr unk will unlock.

NOTE: W ith the system armed on vehicles built for Fleet Service , the trunk can be opened with the key without sounding the Theft Alarm. W ith the system armed on Regular Production V ehicles , opening the trunk with the key will cause the Theft Alarm to sound.
OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems. These include the front and rear seat belts for the driver and all passengers, fr ont airbags for both the driver and front passenger and side airbags for both the driver and front passenger .
W ARNING! • W earing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are designed to go around the large bones of your body . These are the strongest parts of your body and can take the forces of a collision the best. • W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse.
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 across 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.
W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedur e to untwist a twisted lap/ shoulder belt. 1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the anchor point.
2. At about 6 to 12 inches above the latch plate, grasp and twist the belt webbing 180° to create a fold that begins immediately above the latch plate. 3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing. The folded webbing must enter the slot at the top of the latch plate.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take the force if ther e is a collision. Seat Belt Extender If a seat belt is too short, even .
NOTE: The front airbags ar e certified to the Federal regulations that allow less for ceful deployment. If the vehicle is equipped with side airbags, they are located inside the driver and front passenger seats, and their covers are also labeled SRS AIRBAG.
Airbags inflate in moderate to high speed impacts. Along with the seat belts, front airbags work with the instr u- ment panel knee bolsters to provide impr oved protection for the driver and front passenger . Side airbags also work with seat belts to improve occupant pr otection.
3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the front airbags room to inflate. 4. If your vehicle has side airbags, do not lean against the door , airbags will inflate forcefully into the space between you and the door .
• Right and Left Side Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM) • Interconnecting W iring How The Airbag System W orks Front Airbag System • The front Airbag Control Module determines if a frontal collision is sever e enough to require the airbags to inflate.
W ARNING! Ignoring the AIRBAG light in your instrument panel could mean you won’t have the airbags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it comes on as you drive, have the airbag system checked right away .
However , if you have not healed significantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering, see your doctor immediately . • As the airbags deflate you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-pr oduct of the process that generates the nontoxic gas used for airbag inflation.
• In moderate to severe side collisions, the side airbag inflator on the crash side of the vehicle is triggered by the appropriate SIACM, r eleasing a quantity of non- toxic gas. The inflating side airbag exits through the seat seam into the space between the occupant and the door .
Airbag Light Y ou will want to have the airbags ready to inflate for your protection in an impact. While the airbag system is designed to be maintenance free, if any of the following occurs, have an a.
Infants And Small Children There ar e different sizes and types of r estraints for children from newborn size to the child almost lar ge enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child seat Owner’s Manual to ensure you have the right seat for your child.
NOTE: For additional information refer to www .seatcheck.org. W ARNING! • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions ex- actly when installing an infant or child restraint.
from the buckle and twist the short buckle-end belt several times to shorten it. Insert the latch plate into the buckle with the release button facing out.
In addition, there ar e tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in the panel between the rear seat back and the r ear window — under a hinged plastic cover with this symbol on it. (Shown to the left) In recent years, only the tether anchorage has been provided in new vehicles.
Child restraint systems having attachments designed to connect to the lower anchorages are now available. Child restraints having tether straps and hooks for connection to the top tether anchorage have been available for some time. In fact, many child restraint manufactur ers will provide add-on tether strap kits for some of their older products.
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 downward into the seat.
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDA TIONS The engine in your new vehicle does not requir e a long break-in period. Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km), speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Inside The V ehicle Seat Belts Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system. Front seat belt assemblies must be r eplaced after a collision.

Electric Remote-Control Mirrors — If Equipped Use the mirror select switch, located on the drivers door trim panel, to adjust the view obtained in the outside mirrors. Pr ess the rocker knob to the L or R for Left or Right mirror selection. Use the center of f position to guard against accidentally moving a mirr or position.
W ARNING! • Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted and you could be injured. Adjust the seat only while the vehicle is parked.
Adjustable Head Restraints Head restraints can r educe the risk of whiplash injury in the event of impact from the r ear . Pull up or push down on the restraints so that the upper edge is as high as practical. Push in on the release button to lower the head restraint.
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.
Then lift the safety catch located under the front edge of the hood, near the center and raise the hood. Use the hood prop r od to secure the hood in the open position as shown. T o prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to close it. Use a firm downward push at the center of the hood to ensure that both latches engage.
LIGHTS Front Map/Reading Lights — If Equipped These lights, located under the rearview mirr or , can be turned on by means of switches located at the base of the rearview mirr or . NOTE: The map lights will remain on when the ignition switch is in the Run or Accessory positions.
Dome Light Position Rotate the dimmer control com- pletely upward to the second de- tent to turn on the interior lights. The interior lights will remain on when the dimmer control is in this position. Daytime Brightness Feature Certain instrument panel components can be illuminated at full brightness during the daytime.
Daytime Running Lights (Canada Only) The front fog lights will come on as Daytime Running Lights whenever the ignition is on, the headlights are of f, and the parking brake is off.
WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND W ASHERS The wipers and washers are operated by a switch on the control lever . The lever is located on the right side of the steering column. Move the con- trol lever up to select the desir ed wiper speed. Windshield W ashers T o use the washer , pull the control lever towar d you and hold while spray is desired.
Intermittent Wiper System Use the intermittent wiper when weather conditions make a single wiping cycle, with a variable pause be- tween cycles, desirable. Move the lever to the first detent (DEL) position, then select the delay interval by turning the end of the lever .
W ARNING! T ilting the steering column while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. W ithout a stable steering col- umn, you could lose control of the vehicle and have an accident. Adjust the column only while the ve- hicle is stopped. Be sure it is locked before driving.
W ARNING! Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. Y ou could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. Y ou could lose control and have an accident. Always leave the system OFF when you are not using it.
Manual T ransaxle: Depressing the clutch pedal will disengage the speed control. A slight increase in engine RPM befor e the speed control disengages is normal. V ehicles equipped with manual transaxles may need to be shifted into a lower gear to climb hills without speed loss.
POWER SUNROOF — IF EQUIPPED The sunroof contr ol is located on the headliner between the sun visors. A single control “tilts” the sunroof to the vent position and also slides the sunroof r earward to the full open position. Move the switch rearwar d to move the sunroof panel to the full vent position.
W ARNING! In an accident, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. Y ou could also be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured too. Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof.
CONSOLE FEA TURES The Standard console with armr est has two front cup holders and a front storage tray . There ar e two additional cupholders; one is molded in the center of the console to hold large cups, and the other is on the underside of the console lid to serve passengers in the rear seat.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. CAUTION! Long periods of engine idling, especially at high engine speeds can cause excessive exhaust tempera- tures which can damage your vehicle.
Starting in Cold Weather (Below 32°F of 0°C) Slightly depress and hold the accelerator befor e starting the engine. T urn the key to the ST AR T position.
CAUTION! T o prevent damage to the starter , do not crank the engine for more than 15 seconds at a time. W ait 10 to 15 seconds before trying again. After Starting The idle speed will automatically decrease as the engine warms up.
NOTE: If a malfunction occurs, the system will trap the key in the ignition cylinder to warn you that this safety feature is inoperable. The engine can be started and stopped but the key cannot be removed until you obtain service. Four Speed Automatic T ransaxle The electronically contr olled transaxle provides a precise shift schedule.
W ARNING! Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in and near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle, you should always shift the vehicle into P (Park), remove the key from the ignition, and apply the parking brake.
When frequent transaxle shifting occurs while using the Overdrive range, such as when operating the vehicle under heavy loading conditions (in hilly terrain, travel- ing into strong head winds, or while towing trailers), use the “3” range. “3” Drive This range eliminates shifts into Overdrive.
NOTE: During cold weather , until the transaxle lubri- cant has warmed, you may have difficulty shifting. This is normal and not harmful to the transaxle. Recommended Shift Speeds T o use your manual transaxle for optimal fuel economy , it should be upshifted as listed in tables 1 and 2.
CAUTION! If you skip more than one gear while downshifting or downshift at too high an engine speed, you could damage the engine, transaxle, or clutch. T o maintain a safe speed and prolong brake life, shift down to 2nd or 1st when descending a steep grade.
Y ou should always apply the parking brake before leav- ing the vehicle. W ARNING! • Leaving children in a vehicle unattended is dan- gerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake or the gear selector .
malfunction is caused by an internal leak, as the brake fluid in the master cylinder drops, the brake warning indicator will light. Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) — If Equipped The ABS gives increased vehicle stability and brake performance under most braking conditions.
POWER STEERING The power assisted steering system of your vehicle provides mechanical steering capability in the event power assist is lost. If for some reason the hydraulic pr essure is interrupted, it will still be possible to steer your vehicle. Under these conditions you will observe a substantial increase in steering effort.
T ire Sizing Chart EXAMPLE: Size Designation: P = Passenger car tire size based on U.S. design standar ds ( ....blank.... ( = Passenger car tire based on Eur opean design standards LT = Light T ruck tire based on U.
EXAMPLE: Service Description: 95 = Load Index —A numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry . H = Speed Symbol —A symbol indicating the range of speeds at which a tire can carry a load corresponding to its load index under certain operating conditions.
Tire Identification Number (TIN) The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire however the date code may only be on one side. T ires with white sidewalls will have the full TIN including date code located on the white sidewall side of the tire.
Tire Loading and T ire Pressure T ire Placard Location NOTE: The proper cold tir e inflation pressure for passenger cars is listed on either the face of the driver’s door or the driver’s side “B” pillar .
Loading The vehicle maximum load on the tire must not exceed the load carrying capacity of the tire on your vehicle. Y ou will not exceed the tire’s load carrying capacity if you adhere to the loadi.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer , load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 131 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. Underinflation also increases tire rolling r esistance and results in higher fuel consumption.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap–if equipped. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the valve stem. Inflation pressur es specified on the placard are always “cold tire inflation pr essure”.
W ARNING! High speed driving with your vehicle under maxi- mum load is dangerous. The added strain on your tires could cause them to fail. Y ou could have a serious accident. Don’t drive a vehicle loaded to the maximum capacity at continuous speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).
Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact spar e wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare.
Tire Spinning When stuck in mud, sand, snow , or ice conditions, do not spin your vehicle’s wheels above 35 mph (55 km/h). See the paragraph on Freeing A Stuck V ehicle in Section 6 of this manual. W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure.
Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle pr ovide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tir e inflation pressure.
CAUTION! Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer read- ings. Alignment And Balance Poor suspension alignment may result in: • Fast tire wear . • Uneven tire wear , such as feathering and one-sided wear .
CAUTION! T o avoid damage to your vehicle or tires, observe the following precautions: • Because of restricted chain clearance between tires and other suspension components, it is important that only chains in good condition are used. Broken chains can cause serious damage.
Tire Rotation Recommendations T ires on the front and r ear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform different steering, driving and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates, and tend to develop irregular wear pat- terns.
Spark Knock Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not harmful to your engine. However , continued heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause damage and immediate service is requir ed. Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as har d starting, stalling and hesitations.
MMT in Gasoline MMT is a manganese containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasoline to increase octane. Gasolines blended with MMT provide no performance advantage beyond gasolines of the same octane number without MMT .
Fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems resulting fr om the use of such fuels or additives is not the responsibility of the manufactur er . NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you.
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system. CAUTION! A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the Malfunction Indicator Lamp to turn on.
W ARNING! A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a portable container that is inside of a vehicle. Y ou could be burned. Always place gas containers on the ground while filling. VEHICLE LOADING V ehicle Loading Capacities Front Seat Occupants ..

1. W ear eye protection and remove any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets that might make an inadvertent electrical contact. 2. When boosting from a battery in another vehicle, park that vehicle within booster cable reach but without letting the vehicles touch.
W ARNING! Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution; do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin or clothing. Don’t lean over battery when attaching clamps or allow the clamps to touch each other . If acid splashes in eyes or on skin, flush the contaminated area immediately with large quantities of water .
8. When removing the jumper cables, reverse the above sequence exactly . Be careful of the moving belts and fan. W ARNING! Any procedure other than above could result in: 1. Personal injury caused by electrolyte squirting out the battery vent; 2. Personal injury or property damage due to battery explosion; 3.
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 hydroplaning and may cause partial or complete loss of vehicle control and stopping ability . T o reduce this possibility , the following precautions should be observed: 1.
CAUTION! Racing the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transaxle overheating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above 35 mph (55km/h).
Without The Ignition Key Special care must be taken when the vehicle is towed with the ignition in the LOCK position. A dolly should be used under the front wheels if the r ear wheels are raised. Proper towing equipment is necessary to pr event dam- age to the vehicle.

ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II Y our vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated onboard diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors the performance of the emissions, engine, and automatic transmission control systems.
EMISSIONS INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS In some localities, it may be a legal requir ement to pass an inspection of your vehicle’s emissions control system.
If your OBD system is not ready , you should see your authorized dealer or repair facility . If your vehicle was recently serviced or had a battery failur e or replacement, you may need to do nothing more than drive your vehicle as you normally would in order for your OBD system to update.
W ARNING! Y ou can be badly injured working on or around a motor vehicle. Do only that service work for which you have the knowledge and the proper equipment. If you have any doubt about your ability to perform a service job, take your vehicle to a competent mechanic.
Checking the oil while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level r eadings. Maintain the oil level between the MIN and MAX markings on the dipstick. Adding one quart of oil when the reading is at the MIN mark will result in a MAX r eading on these engines.
• Driving in dusty conditions • Short trips of less than 10 miles (16.2 km) • More than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather , above 90°F (32°C) • T railer towi.
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) SAE 5W -20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures.
Engine Oil Filter The engine oil filter should be replaced at every engine oil change. Engine Oil Filter Selection All of this manufacturers engines have a full-flow type disposable oil filter . Use a filter of this type for replace- ment. The quality of replacement filters varies consider - ably .
CAUTION! Damage to the catalytic converter can result if your vehicle is not kept in proper operating condition. In the event of engine malfunction, particularly involv- ing engine misfire or other apparent loss of perfor- mance, have your vehicle serviced promptly .
Ignition Wiring System The ignition cables should be kept clean and properly connected. T erminals should be fully seated. Cracked, damaged, or faulty cables should be replaced. Crankcase Emission Control System Proper operation of this system depends on fr eedom from sticking or plugging due to deposits.
Maintenance-Free Battery The top of the MAINTENANCE-FREE battery is perma- nently sealed. Y ou will never have to add water , nor is periodic maintenance requir ed. CAUTION! When servicing the battery , always reinstall the battery thermowrap. The thermowrap provides bat- tery heat protection and will extend overall battery life.
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 positive (+) and negative (-) and identified on the battery case.
Power Steering Fluid Check Checking the power steering fluid level at a defined service interval is not requir ed. The fluid should only be checked if a leak is suspected, abnormal noises are apparent, and/or the system is not functioning as antici- pated.
Windshield Wiper Blades Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a mild non abrasive cleaner , or use the washer solvent. This will remove accumulations of salt or r oad film and help reduce str eaking and smearing.
Windshield W asher Aiming T o change the aim of the windshield washers, place a safety pin into the nozzle opening and move the nozzle slightly . Continue making slight adjustments until you obtain the desired pattern.
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 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.
humidity accumulating on the radiator and being vapor- ized when the thermostat opens, allowing hot coolant to enter the radiator . If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven.
Insure nylon tubing in these ar eas has not melted or collapsed. Inspect all hose connections such as clamps and cou- plings to make sure they ar e secure and no leaks are present. Components should be replaced immediately if ther e is any evidence of degradation that could cause failure.
NOTE: Inspection of brake hoses should be done whenever the brake system is serviced and every engine oil change. 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 .
T o check the fluid level properly , the following procedure must be used: 1. The vehicle must be on level ground. 2. The engine should be running at curb idle speed for a minimum of 60 seconds. 3. Fully apply parking brake. 4. Place the gear selector momentarily in each gear position ending with the lever in P (P ARK).
CAUTION! Do not overfill. Dirt and water in the transaxle can cause serious damage. T o prevent dirt and water from entering the transaxle after checking or replen- ishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is seated properly .
Frequency of Fluid Change Under normal operating conditions, the fluid installed at the factory will give satisfactory lubrication for the life of the vehicle. Fluid changes are not necessary unless the following conditions exist: • The lubricant has become contaminated with water .
W ashing • W ash your vehicle regularly . Always wash your ve- hicle in the shade using a mild car wash soap, and rinse the panels completely with clear water . • If insects, tar or other similar deposits have accumu- lated on your vehicle, wash it as soon as possible.
• If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, deicer salt, etc., be sure that such materials ar e well packaged and sealed. • If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider mud or stone shields behind each wheel.
Y our leather upholstery can be best preserved by r egular cleaning with a damp soft cloth. Small particles of dirt can act as an abrasive and damage the leather upholstery and should be removed pr omptly with a damp cloth. Stubborn soils can be removed easily with a soft cloth and Mopar T otal Clean.
Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses The lenses in front of the instr uments in the vehicle are molded in clear plastic.
