Headlight Aiming
The headlights on your new vehicle were aimed at the
factory. The factory setting was made at a no load setting.
A great increase in weight will change the aiming and it
may be necessary to readjust the headlights if carrying an
excessive amount of weight in the rear cargo area. To
readjust the headlights first mark the position of the
headlights on a wall prior to loading the vehicle. Load
262 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
Page 263 of 299

the vehicle and then readjust the headlights to the
original position. If any further adjustments are neces-
sary contact your manufacturer's dealer. A detailed ser-
vice procedure is contained in the manufacturer's Service
Manual. Information on purchasing a Service Manual can
be found at the back of this Owner's Manual.
VEHICLE STORAGE
We recommend that you follow these guidelines before
storing your Crossfire for extended periods.
²Fill the gas tank. This will prevent water condensation
inside the tank. If you plan on storing your vehicle
more than two months, add an anti-oxidant fuel
stabilizer to the gas tank.
²Change the oil to remove any corrosive combustion-
related acids in the crankcase.
²Wash and wax the vehicle to protect the finish.
²Cover the vehicle whenever possible to prevent acci-
dental damage to the finish.
²Store the vehicle in a dry, well-ventilated location.
²If the vehicle will be subjected to freezing tempera-
tures, remove the battery and store it in a dry, well-
ventilated place. If the vehicle is not going to be driven
in the next three weeks, follow the battery recharge
procedure in the Service Manual, then disconnect the
battery at the negative terminal.
CAUTION!
Use care when disconnecting the remote positive
cable. It is connected to the battery and can short out
to any metal on the vehicle. Always tape or wrap the
exposed cable end to prevent electrical shorts.
Disconnecting the battery causes the engine control sys-
tem to lose memory of some ªlearnedº functions. The
engine may run rough when first started after a battery
disconnect until the control module ªrelearnsº these
functions.
Check the battery every four to six weeks to ensure that
the voltage is above 12.40. Voltage will drop more rapidly

typemust be done at the times or mileages specified to
assure the continued proper functioning of the emission
control system. These, and all other maintenance services
included in this manual, should be done to provide best
vehicle performance and reliability. More frequent main-
tenance may be needed for your Crossfire in severe
operating conditions such as dusty areas and very short
trip driving.Inspection and service also should be done any time a
malfunction is suspected.
NOTE:Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the
emission control devices and systems on your vehicle
may be performed by any automotive repair establish-
ment or individual using any automotive part which has

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES
There are two maintenance schedules that show the
requiredservice for your vehicle.
Schedule ªAº typically rotates with Schedule ªB.º Follow
Schedule ªAº after the first service interval, Schedule ªBº
after the second service interval, and so on. In some cases
where the service interval has been extended due to very
light duty driving, a Schedule ªBº service may be indi-
cated following a previous Schedule ªBº service. There
are additional service tasks required under Schedule ªB.º
