Push the switch to either “HI” or “LO” to turn on the heating element in
the seat.
- .- Designed primarily for use on damp and chilly days, the “LO” setting
warms the seatback and cushion until the seat approximates body
temperature. On colder days, the
“HI” setting heats the seats to an even
__ higher temperature. To prevent uncomfortable overheating of the seats,
the heating elements are thermostatically regulated to automatically
maintain the temperature at the setting selected. A telltale light on the
control switch reminds you that the heating system is in use.
To preserve
the battery, the heated seats can only be used when the ignition is turned
on, and is deactivated when the ignition is turned off.

Reduce speed and shift to a lower gear before you start down a long or
steep downgrade. If you don’t shift down, you might have to use your
brakes
so much that they would get hot and no longer work well.
On a long uphill grade, shift down and reduce your speed to around 45
mph (70 kmih) to reduce the possibility of engine and transmission
overheating.

may have a leak in the radiator hoses, heater hoses, radiator, water pump
or somewhere else
in the cooling system.
A CAUTION:
Heater and radiator hoses, and other engine parts, can be very
hot. Don’t touch them.
If you do, you can be burned.
Don’t run the engine if there
is a leak. If you run the engine, it
could lose all coolant. That could cause an engine fire, and you
could be burned. Get any leak fixed before you drive the vehicle.

If there seems to be no leak, check to see if the fan or if equipped electric --
engine fans are running. If the engine is overheating, both fans should be
running.
If they aren’t, your vehicle needs service.

too much friction. You could have an air-out and a serious
accident. See “”Loading Your Vehicle” in the Index.

tires. The resulting accident could cause serious injury.
Check all tires frequently
to maintain the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure should
be checked when your tires
are cold.

broken by
a sudden impact, such as when you hit a pothole.
