Every now and then have your dealership check your air conditioning
system
to be sure it has not lost any cooling ability. If you think the system
is not working properly, have your dealership check it out as soon as
possible.
The air conditioning will not work when the temperature
is below 40°F
(4°C).
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.
Exhaust System
To help prevent damage to your exhaust system, do not continue to drive
your vehicle if you notice:
0 Engine misfiring
Loss of performance
Exhaust system components hanging lower than normal.
Loud exhaust system noises.
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.
Engine Control Module System
This system has an oxygen (02) sensor that helps keep your engine’s
air-fuel mixture at a proper level. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle. If
you
use leaded fuel, you could damage your oxygen (02) sensor and affect
your vehicle’s emissions.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible thermal links in
the
wiring itself. This greatly reduces the chance of fires caused by electrical
problems.
See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the Index for more
information.
Headlamps
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the lamp switch.
An electrical overload will cause the lamps
to go on and off, or in some
cases to remain off. If this happens, have your headlamp wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit breaker and a fuse. If
the motor overheats due
to heavy snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the
motor cools. If the overload is caused by some electrical problem and not
snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power windows and other
power accessories. When the current load is too heavy, the circuit breaker
opens and closes, protecting the circuit until the problem is fixed or goes
away.
Trailer Wiring Harness
The optional eight-wire trailer wiring harness is protected by an in-line fuse
in the battery feed wire. This fuse is near the junction block, See “Trailer
Wiring Harness” in the Index.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fuse Block
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.
