Footnotes
3 The California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to
perform this maintenance item will not nullify the emission warranty or
limit recall liability prior to the completion of vehicle useful life. We,
however, urge that all recommended maintenance services be performed at
the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded.

towing conditions and high speed (above
45 mph or 72 kmh)
conditions for extended periods of time must have the drive axle fluid

Starter Switch
A CAUTION:
When you are doing this check, the vehicle could move suddenly.
If it does, you or others could be injured. Follow the steps below.
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room around the vehicle. It
should be parked
on a level surface.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake (see “Parking Brake” in the Index
if necessary) and the regular brake.
NOTE: Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be ready to turn off the
engine immediately
if it starts.
3. On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the engine in each gear.
The starter should work only
in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the
starter works in any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transmission vehicles, put the shift lever in NEUTRAL
(N),
push the clutch down halfway and try to start the engine. The starter
should work only when the clutch is pushed down
all the way to the
floor. If the starter works when the clutch isn’t pushed all the way
down, your vehicle needs service.
