Accelerator Control System
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often the a\
ccelerator linkage pivot points must be lubricated and what type
of lubricant to use.
Accelerator cables and cruise control cables should not be lubr\
icated. Any
cables that are worn or are hard
to pull should be replaced.
When cleaning the engine compartment with water or steam, avoid\
directing the flow onto the throttle linkage
in a manner that would cause moisture to
enter the cables.
Hood Latches and Hood Hinge
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how to lubricate\
the hood
latch and hood hinge assembly.
Propeller Shaft Slip Splines/Universal Joints
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often the slip and
universal joints must be lubricated and what type
of lubricant to use.
Body
Normal use of your vehicle will cause metal to metal wear at some points on
the cab and body if they are not lubricated.
For exposed surfaces, such as door checks, door lock bolts, lock s\
triker
plates, dovetail bumper wedges, etc., a thin film
of engine oil should be
applied.
Where oil holes are provided in the body or cab, a dripless oil can be used.
The seat adjusters and seat track should be lubricated with chassis\
grease.
Door weatherstrips and rubber hood bumpers should be wiped clea\
n with a wet cloth and lightly coated with a rubber lubricant.
Never use too much
of any lubricant and be sure to wipe up any extra
lubricant when you are finished.
Window regulators and controls are inside the doors. They are lubricated
with a long lasting grease.
If lubrication is required your dealer should
perform this service.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often to lubricate
these items and what type of lubricant to use.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Lock Cylinders
To be sure your locks operate properly, they must be lubricated.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
how often to lubricate them
and what type
of lubricant to use.
You should not use penetrating oils because they could wash out the factory
installed lubricant and cause
the lock to bind. De-icers which contain
alcohol could
also wash away the lubricant, so be sure to lubricate the lock
after using a de-icer of this type.
Tailgate Handle
The tailgate handle pivot points on your vehicle should be lubricated to keep
the handle working smoothly.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
how often to lubricate them
and what type
of lubricant to use.
Exhaust System
To help prevent damage to your exhaust system, do not continue to drive
your vehicle if you notice:
Engine misfiring
Loss of performance
Other unusual operating conditions
Have your engine and exhaust system serviced regularly.
Three- Way Catalytic Converter
Your vehicle's three-way catalytic converter is designed to reduce the
pollutants in your vehicle's exhaust. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle.
If you use leaded fuel, you could damage your three-way catalytic converter
and other engine components.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (SERVICE ENGINE SOON )
This light on your instrument panel lets you know when your emission
system needs service. The light will come on briefly when you start your
engine to let you know that the system
is working. If it does not come on
when you start your engine, or if it comes on and stays on while you're
driving, your system may
need service. Your vehicle should still be
driveable, but you should have your system serviced right away.

the
suds.
0 Rinse the section with a clean, wet sponge.

NOTICE:
Be careful with a hair dryer or heat lamp. You could scorch the
fabric.
Wipe with a clean cloth.
Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on Fabric
First, see if you have to use solvent-type cleaner at all. Some spots and
stains will clean
off better with just water and mild soap.
If you need to use a solvent:
Gently scrape excess soil from the trim material with a clean,\
dull knife
or scraper. Use very little cleaner, light pressure and clean cloths
(preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning should start at the outside of the
stain, “feathering” toward the center. Keep changing to a clean \
section
of the cloth.
0 When you clean a stain from fabric, immediately dry the area with an
air hose, hair dryer, or heat lamp to help prevent a cleaning ring. (See
the previous NOTICE.)
