In many crashes sevefe enough to inflate ‘an air bag,
windshields are broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windshield breakage may also occur
from the
right front passenger air bag.
Air bags are designed to inflate only once. After an
,air bag inflates, you’ll need some new parts for your
air bag system. If you don’t ‘get .them, -the air bag
system won’t be there to help pr0tec.t you
in another
crash.
A new system will include air bag modules
and possibly other
parts. The service manual for your
vehicle covers the need
to replace other parts.
@ Your vehicle has a crash sensing and diagnostic
__ module, which records information about the air bag
and related systems.
It records information about the
readiness
of the air bag systems, when the sensors
are activated and driver’s safety belt usage at
deployment or
in a near-deployment crash. Some
modules also record speed, engine
RPM and brake
and acceleration data.
Let only qualified technicians work on your air bag
systems. &proper service can mean that an
air bag
system won? work properly. See your dealer
for service.
NOTICE:
If you damage ,the covering for the driver’s or the
right front passenger’s
air bag, or the air bag
covering
on the driver’s and right front
passenger’s door, the bag may not work properly.
You may have to replace the air bag module
in
the steering wheel, both the air bag module and
the instrument panel for the right front
passenger’s air bag,
or both the air bag module ’
and door phel for the driver’s and right front
passenger’s side impact
air bag. Do not open or
break the
air bag coverings.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine OVERDRIVE (a): This position is for normal driving.
If you need more power for passing, and you’re:
Going less than 35 mph (55 kmk), push the
accelerator pedal about halfway down.
Going about 35 mph (55 kmh) or more, push the
accelerator all the way down.
The transaxle will shift down to the next gear and
have more power.
.NOTICE:
If your vehicle seems to start up rather slowly, or
if it doesn’t seem to shift gears as you accelerate,
something may be wrong with
a transaxle system
sensor..
If you drive very far that way, your
vehicle can be damaged.
So if this happens, have
your vehicle serviced right
away. Until then, you
can use SECOND
(2) when you are driving less
than
35 mph (55 km/h) and,OVERDRIVE (a)
for higher speeds.-
THIRD (3): This position is also. used for normal
driving, however, it offers more power and lower fuel
economy than
OVERDRIVE (0).
Here are examples for using THIRD (3) instead of
OVERDRIVE (0):
When driving on hilly, winding roads.
When towing a trailer, so there is less shifting
. When going down a steep hill.
SECOND (2): This position gives you more power. You
can use SECOND (2) on hills. It ,can help control your
speed as you go down steep mountain roads, but then
you wbuld
also want to use your brakes off and on.
between gears.

NOTICE:
~ ~~
Don’t shift into
SECOND (2) unless you are going
slower than
65 mph (105 km/h), or you can
damage your engine.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH -’ 8: This message
shows that the electrical charging system is
overcharging (more than 16 volts). To avoid being
stranded, have the electrical system checked by your
dealership. You can reduce the charging overload by
using the accessories. Turn on the lamps and radio, set
the climate control on AUTO and the fan speed on HI,
and turn the rear window defogger on.
You can monitor
battery voltage on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
by pressing the
INFO button. The normal range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts when the engine is running.
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW - 6: This message will
appear when the electrical system is charging less than
10 volts or if the battery has been drained. If this
message appears immediately after starting,
it is possible
that the generator can still recharge the battery. The
battery should recharge and may take a few hours to do
so. Consider using an auxiliary charger to boost the
battery after returning home or to a final destination.
(Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions when
recharging the battery.)
If this message appears while driving or after starting
your vehicle and stays on, have it checked immediately
to determine the cause of this problem.
To help the
generator recharge the battery quickly, you can reduce
the load on the electrical system by turning
off the
accessories. You can monitor battery voltage on the Driver Information Center (DIC) by pressing the
INFORMATION
(INFO) button. The normal range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts.
BRAKE VACUUM PROBLEM -108: The circuit in
the brake booster vacuum has shorted or is loose when
this message appears. Your vehicle may lose power
brakes but you will still have the use of manual brakes.
The power brakes will not be affected if the problem
is
caused by a failed sensor. Have your vehicle serviced
immediately at your dealership.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL - 82: This means that the life
of the engine oil has expired and it should be changed
within
200 miles (322 km). See “Engine Oil” and “Filter
Recommendations’’ in the Maintenance Schedule
booklet. After an oil change, the Oil Life Indicator must be reset. For more information, see “How to Reset the
Oil Life Indicator” in the Index.
CHANGE TRANS FLUID - 47: This message will
appear when it is time to replace the transaxle fluid. See
the Maintenance Schedule booklet for the proper fluid
and change intervals.
CHECK BRAKE FLUID - 37: This message will
display if the ignition is in RUN to inform the driver that
the brake fluid level is low. Check the brake reservoir
level and add fluid as needed. Have the brake system

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of fires
caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band
is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t
have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one that has the same amperage. 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 the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the engine
compartment fuse block and the rear compartment
fuse block.
