The driver’s window has an “auto-down”
feature for added convenience (at toll
booths or drive-through restaurants, for
example). This means you can open the
window without holding the window switch
in the “Down” position. Press the driver’s
window switch completely down and release
it. To stop the window before it reaches the
bottom, lift up the switch briefly.
To open or to close a window with the
passenger's door switch, push the top part
of the switch or lift up the top part of the
switch respectively.

Periodically inspect seat belt
assemblies for excessive wear and
damage. Seat belts should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated, or damaged in any
way. It is essential to replace the
entire seat belt assembly after it has
been stressed in an impact, even if
damage to the assembly is not
obvious.
Infants and small children should never be transported unless they are
properly restrained. Restraint
systems for infants and small
children can be purchased locally
and should be used. Make sure that
the system you purchase meets
applicable safety standards. Read
and follow all the directions
provided by the manufacturer.
Avoid contamination of seat belt webbing by polishes, oils,
chemicals, and particularly battery
acid. Cleaning may safely be carried
out using mild soap and water.
For children, if the shoulder belt irritates the neck or face, move the
child closer to the center of the
vehicle.

You should take extreme care when
working on your vehicle to prevent
accidental injury. Here are a few
precautions that you should be
especially careful to observe:
Do not leave the engine running ingarages or other confined areas.
When the engine is running, keep hands, clothing, tools, and other
objects away from the fan and water
pump belt. Even though the fan may
not be moving, it can automatically
turn on without warning. When it is necessary to do service
work with the engine running, make
sure that the parking brake is
applied fully and the transmission is
in Neutral.
Do not touch ignition wires or other
ignition system parts when starting
the engine or when the engine is
running, or you could receive an
electric shock.
Be careful not to touch a hot engine, exhaust manifold and pipes,
muffler, radiator and water hoses.
Do not allow smoking, sparks, or flames around gasoline or the
battery. Flammable fumes are
present.
Do not get under your vehicle if it is supported only with the portable
jack provided in your vehicle.
Be careful not to cause accidental short circuits between the positive
and negative battery terminals.
Keep used oil, coolant, and other
fluids away from children and pets.
Dispose of used fluids properly;
never pour them on the ground, into
sewers, etc.INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE9-1

Refilling
Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly
through the filler hole to bring the oil level
to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful
not to overfill. Too much oil is almost as
bad as too little oil. After refilling, start the
engine and allow it to idle for about a
minute. Stop the engine, wait for five
minutes and check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and Filter
Drain the engine oil while the engine is still
warm.
1) Remove the oil filler cap.
2) Place a drain pan under the drain plug.
3) Using the correct spanner remove thedrain plug and drain out the engine oil.
The engine oil temperature may be high
enough to burn your fingers when the
drain plug is loosened. Wait until the
drain plug is cool enough to touch with
your bare hands.
ww ww
w WARNING
New and used oil can be hazardous.
Children and pets may be harmed by
swallowing new or used oil. Keep new
and used oil and used oil filters away
from children and pets.
Continuous contact with used engine
oil may cause (skin) cancer.
Brief contact with used oil may irritate
skin.
To minimize your exposure to used
oil, wear a long-sleeve shirt and
moistureproof gloves (such as
dishwashing gloves) when changing
oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash
thoroughly with soap and water.
Launder any clothing or rags if wet
with oil.
Recycle or properly dispose of used
oil and filters.
