(Driver's Side)
Most of your fuses are in the engine compartment
fuse block. Some are in three electrical centers in your
engine compartment. These electrical centers also have
relays, circuit breakers and other electrical components.
The larger electrical center in the engine compartment
has a fuse puller located between the EFI and FAN
relays. You can use the puller to remove any fuses.

I Short Trip/City Definition I
Follow the Short TripKity Maintenance Schedule if any
one of these conditions is true for your vehicle:
0
0
0
0
0
Most trips are less than 5 to 10 miles (8 to 16 km).
This is particularly important when outside
temperatures are below freezing.
Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent
driving in stop-and-go traffic).
Most trips are through dusty areas. You frequently tow a trailer or use
a carrier on top of
your vehicle.
If the vehicle is used for delivery service, police, taxi
or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you should follow this schedule
if you operate your vehicle under any of these conditions
is that these conditions cause engine oil to break
down soonez
Short Trip/City Intervals
Every 3,000 Miles (5 000 km): Engine Oil and Filter
Change (or
3 months, whichever occurs first).
Every 6,000 Miles (10 000 km): Chassis Lubrication
(or
6 months, whichever occurs first). Tire
Rotation. Air Cleaner Filter Inspection,
if driving
in dusty conditions.
Every 15,000 Miles (25 000 km): Automatic Transaxle
Fluid Change (severe conditions only). Automatic
Transaxle Fluid Check (normal conditions).
Every 30,000 Miles (50 000 km): Air Cleaner Filter
Replacement. Spark Plug Replacement. Fuel Tank,
Cap, Cap Gasket and Lines Inspection (or every
24 months, whichever occurs first). Manual Transaxle
Fluid Change (severe conditions only) (or every
