TRIP ~
SET I
By using this button,
you can tell how far
you’ve gone since you
last
set the TRIP SET
back to zero. To reset,
press and hold the
button until zeros
appear.
If your vehicle is domestic, the trip odometer will return to zero after

WMING LIGHTS
This part describes the warning lights that are on your vehicle. The
pictures will help
you locate them.
Warning lights can signal that something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough
to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention to your warning lights could also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights come
on when there may be or is a problem with one of
your vehicle’s functions. As you will see in the details on the next few
pages, some warning lights come
on briefly when you start the engine just
to let you know they’re working.
If you are familiar with this section, you
should not be alarmed
when this happens.
When one of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are
driving, check the section that tells you
what to do about it. Please follow
this manual’s advice. Waiting to do repairs can
be costly -- and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your warning lights. They‘re a big help.
Your vehicle may also have a Driver Information Center that works along
with the warning lights. See “Driver Information Center‘‘ in the Index.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Adahtenance When Trailer Towing
Your vehicle will need service more often when you're pulling a trailer.
See the Maintenance Schedule for more
on this. Things that are especially
important in trailer operation are automatic transaxle fluid (don't
overfill), engine oil, belt, cooling system, and brake adjustment. Each
of
these is covered in this manual, and the Index will help you find them
quickly. If you're trailering, it's a good idea to review these sections before
you start your trip.
--
Check periodically to see that all hitch nuts and bolts are tight.
Engine Coding When Trailering
Your cooling system may temporarily overheat during severe operating
conditions such as:
Climbing grades steeper than 4% at ambient temperatures above
90°F (32" C) with a loaded vehicle and trailer.
Stopping after high-speed driving.
Idling for long periods in stop-and-go traffic.
If the ENGINE HOT-A/C COMPRESSOR OFF message appears on the
Driver Information Center, do
not be alarmed. This is a normal function
designed to reduce the load on the engine and cooling system. You can
continue to drive your vehicle.
If the ENGINE COOLANT HOT-IDLE ENGINE message appears on
the Driver Information Center, pull
off to the side of the road as soon as
it is safe to do
so. When the vehicle is at a complete stop, shift the
transaxle selector to PARK
(P) and allow the engine to idle. Do not turn
off the engine or increase engine speed above a normal idle. After several
minutes, resume driving at a reduced speed. Return
to normal driving
after
10 minutes if the ENGINE COOLANT HOT-IDLE ENGINE
message is not displayed.
