To Keep Locks from FreezingTo keep the locks from freezing, squirt an ap-
proved de-icer fluid or glycerine into the key
opening. If a lock is covered with ice, squirt it with
an approved de-icing fluid to remove the ice. If
the lock is frozen internally, you may be able to
thaw it out by using a heated key. Handle the
heated key with care to avoid burning the fingers.

Don't Let Your Parking Brake FreezeUnder some conditions your parking brake can
freeze in the engaged position. This is most likely
to happen when there is an accumulation of snow
or ice around or near the rear brakes or if the
brakes are wet. If there is a risk the parking brake
may freeze, apply it only temporarily while you
put the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or in
first or reverse gear (manual transaxle) and
block the rear wheels so the car cannot roll. Then
release the parking brake.

Wait a minute, then remove the dipstick, wipe it
off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it
again. Then note the highest level the oil has
reached on the dipstick. It should be between
the upper ("FULL") and lower ("LOW") range.
If the oil level is close to or below the "LOW"
mark, add oil until it reaches the "FULL" mark.
To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again. Do not
overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clockwise.
The distance between the "FULL" and "LOW"

CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
The engine oil and filter should be changed at
those intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven
in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter
changes are required.
The procedure for changing the oil and filter is
as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set the
parking brake. Start the engine and let it
warm up until the needle on the coolant
temperature gauge moves above the lowest
mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear
selector lever in "P" (automatic) or reverse
gear (manual transaxle). Set the parking
brake.
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil
filler cap.

Use a high quality ethylene-glycol coolant in a
50/50 mix with water. The engine coolant should
be compatible with aluminum engine parts.
Additional corrosion inhibitors or additives should
not be used. The cooling system must be main-
tained with the correct concentration and type
of engine coolant to prevent freezing and corro-
sion. Never allow the concentration of anti-
freeze to exceed the 60% level or go below the
35% level, or damage to the cooling system
