(SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT)
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.
Tires
We don’t make tires. Your new vehicle comes with high quality tires made
by
a leading tire manufacturer. These tires are warranted by the tire
manufacturers and their warranties
are delivered with every new vehicle. If
your spare tire is a different brand than your road tires, you will have a tire
warranty folder from each of these manufacturers.

cheesecloth). Cleaning should start at the outside
of the stain, “feathering”
toward the center. Keep changing

The fuse block is in
the instrument panel
on the driver’s side.
Remove
the cover
with a screwdriver.
You
can remove fuses
with a fuse extractor.
To remove fuses if you don’t have a fuse extractor, hold the end of the fuse
between your thumb and index finger and pull straight out.
Be sure
to use the correct fuse. If you ever have a problem on the road and
don’t have a spare fuse,
you can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature of your vehicle that
you can get along without-like the radio
or cigarette lighter-and use its fuse, if it is
of the value you need. Replace
it as soon as you can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in this section.
