Battery Saver
[CF44900(ALL)01/96]
When the ignition switch is turned to OFF, the vehicle will turn
off battery voltage to the interior lamps after 45 minutes. (The
exterior lamps are not affected.) The purpose is to minimize
extended battery drain if the lights have inadvertently been left
on or if a door or the glove box is not completely closed.
However, the timer will be immediately reset to another 45
minutes if any of the following occurs:
[CF45000(ALL)01/96]
n
any door is open or closed
[CF45100(ALL)01/96]
n
the front door handle is lifted (for Illuminated Entry only)

*
[CF45500(ALL)05/96]
Remote Entry System (If equipped)
[CF45600(ALL)08/96]
If your vehicle has the remote entry system, you can lock and
unlock the vehicle doors without using a key. The remote entry
system also has a personal alarm feature. The buttons that
control the system are located on the hand held transmitter that
comes with your vehicle.
*
[CF45700(ALL)05/96]
The system will work with up to four remotes. Your vehicle
came with two remotes. Additional remotes can be ordered
from your dealer.
*
[CF45800(ALL)01/96]

may have been activated. For directions on how to reset the
switch seeFuel Pump Shut-Off Switchin the index.
[TO03300(ALL)12/95]
A computer system controls the engine's idle rpm. When you
start your vehicle, the engine's idling rpm normally runs high.
These faster engine speeds will make your vehicle move slightly
faster than when the engine is at its normal warm engine idle
speed. It should, however, slow down when the vehicle warms
up. If it does not, have the idle rpm checked.
*
[TO03400(ALL)01/96]
RWARNING
Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle in dry grass or
other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up
the engine compartment and exhaust system, which can
start a fire.

Roadside Emergencies
*
[ER00200(ALL)01/96]
The hazard flasher is used to alert other drivers to hazardous
situations.
*
[ER00300(ALL)01/96]
The hazard flasher switch operates the same lamps as the turn
signal lever. When the hazard flasher is activated, all of these
lamps will flash on and off. The turn signal indicators cannot be
used when the hazard lamps are flashing. Operation of the
hazard flashers does not affect operation of the brakelamps.
*
[ER00400(ALL)01/96]
The flashers work even with the key out of the ignition. The
flashers will work for up to two hours when the battery is fully
charged and in good condition. They will not drain the battery
excessively. If the flashers run for longer than two hours or if
your battery is not fully charged, your battery may be drained
to the point where the vehicle will not start.

How to Prepare Your Vehicle for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) Testing
*
[MC31800(ALL)07/96]
In some localities it may become a legal requirement to pass an
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test of the On-Board Diagnostic
(OBD) II system. If the vehicle's powertrain system or its battery
has just been serviced, the OBD II system is reset to a not ready
for I/M testing condition. To prepare for I/M testing, the law
specifies that additional mixed city and highway driving is
required to complete the check of the OBD II system.
*
[MC31825(ALL)07/96]
The driving modes required to reach the ready condition consist
of a minimum of 30 minutes of city and highway driving as
described below:
*
[MC32000(ALL)07/96]
n
At least twenty minutes driving in stop and go, city type
traffic with at least four idle periods.
*
[MC32100(ALL)07/96]
n
At least ten minutes of driving on an expressway or
highway.
*
[MC32200(ALL)07/96]
Before completing the above driving modes, the engine must be
warmed up and at operating temperature. Once started, the
vehicle must not be turned off during these driving modes.
[MC33200(ALL)01/96]
