Water In Fuel
It will illuminate if there is excess
water in the fuel filter. Drain off
the water immediately. See
Draining the Fuel Filter Water Trap
(page 218). If it illuminates after draining
the water, this indicates a fuel filter service
is required. Have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer immediately.
Direction Indicator Flashes during operation. A
sudden increase in the rate of
flashing warns of a failed
indicator bulb. See
Changing a Bulb
(page 225).
Door Ajar It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on and remains on if
any door or the hood is open.
Engine Coolant Temperature If it illuminates when you are
driving, this indicates a
malfunction. Stop your vehicle
as soon as it is safe to do so and switch the
engine off. Have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer. Engine Warning Lamps
Malfunction Indicator Service Required
All Vehicles
If either lamp illuminates when the engine
is running, this indicates a malfunction. The
engine will continue to run but it may have
limited power. If either lamp flashes when
you are driving, reduce the speed of your
vehicle immediately. If it continues to flash,
avoid heavy acceleration or deceleration.
Have your vehicle checked by an
authorized dealer.
WARNING
Under engine misfire conditions,
excessive exhaust temperatures
could damage the catalytic
converter, the fuel system, interior floor
coverings or other vehicle components,
possibly causing a fire. Have an authorized
dealer service your vehicle immediately. If both lamps illuminate when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so. You may notice a reduction
in vehicle speed caused by reduced engine
power. Switch the ignition off and attempt
to restart the engine. Have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer.
Front Airbag
If it fails to illuminate when you
start your vehicle, continues to
flash or remains on, this
indicates a malfunction. Have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer.

•
Fluid leaks.
• Strange odors.
• Excessive exhaust smoke.
• Loss of engine power.
Do not make any unauthorized changes to
your vehicle or engine. By law, vehicle
owners and anyone who manufactures,
repairs, services, sells, leases, trades
vehicles, or supervises a fleet of vehicles
are not permitted to intentionally remove
an emission control device or prevent it
from working. Information about your
vehicle ’s emission system is on the Vehicle
Emission Control Information Decal
located on or near the engine. This decal
also lists engine displacement.
Please see your warranty information for
complete details.
On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II)
Your vehicle has an on-board diagnostics
system (OBD-II) that monitors the engine ’s
emission control system. This system
protects the environment by making sure
that your vehicle continues to meet
government emission standards. The
OBD-II system also assists an authorized
dealer in correctly servicing your vehicle. When the service engine soon
indicator illuminates, the OBD-II
system has detected a
malfunction. Temporary malfunctions may
cause the service engine soon indicator to
illuminate.
Examples of temporary malfunctions are:
• The vehicle has run out of fuel.
• Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.
• The engine may misfire or run rough.
• The fuel filler door may not have been
closed correctly. See Refueling (page
122).
• Driving through deep water. The
electrical system may be wet. You can correct these temporary
malfunctions by filling the fuel tank with
good quality fuel, correctly closing the fuel
filler door or letting the electrical system
dry out. After three driving cycles without
these or any other temporary malfunctions
present, the service engine soon indicator
should not illuminate. A driving cycle
consists of a cold engine startup followed
by mixed city or highway driving. No
additional vehicle service is required.
If the service engine soon indicator remains
on, have your vehicle serviced at the first
available opportunity. Although some
malfunctions detected by the OBD-II may
not have symptoms that are apparent,
continued driving with the service engine
soon indicator on can result in increased
emissions, lower fuel economy, reduced
engine and transmission smoothness, and
lead to more costly repairs.
Readiness for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
Testing
Some state/provincial and local
governments may have
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) programs
to inspect the emission control equipment
on your vehicle. Failure to pass this
inspection could prevent you from getting
a vehicle registration.
If the service engine soon
indicator is on or the bulb does
not work, you may need to have
your vehicle serviced. See
On-Board
Diagnostics (OBD-II).
Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test if
the service engine soon indicator is on or
not working properly (bulb is burned out),
or if the OBD-II system has determined
that some of the emission control systems
have not been properly checked. In this
case, your vehicle is not ready for I/M
testing.

Note:
Single batteries are mounted the
opposite way around in the battery tray. The
negative terminal is toward the rear of the
vehicle.
Installing the Battery WARNING
Make sure that you securely fasten
the seat runner bolts before installing
the covers.
Install in the reverse order.
CHECKING THE WIPER
BLADES
Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of
the blade to check for roughness.
Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid
or water applied with a soft sponge or
cloth.
CHANGING THE WIPER
BLADES
Changing the Windshield Wiper
Blades
Lift the wiper arm. 1. Press the locking button.
2. Remove the wiper blade.
3. Install in the reverse order. Make sure
that the wiper blade locks into place.
Note: The windshield wiper blades are
different in length. If you install wiper blades
of the wrong length, the rain sensor may not
work correctly.
ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS
Vertical Aim Adjustment
If your vehicle has been involved in a crash,
have the aim of the headlamp beam
checked by an authorized dealer.

Vertical Aim Adjustment Procedure
1. Park your vehicle on level ground approximately 25 ft (7.6 m) from a wall
or screen.
2. Measure the distance from the ground
to the center of the headlamp low
beam bulb and mark an
8 ft (2.4 m)
long horizontal reference line on the
wall or screen at this height. Note:
There may be an identifying mark on
the lens to help you locate the center of the
bulb.
Note: To see a clearer light pattern while
adjusting one headlamp, you may want to
block the light from the other headlamp.
3. Switch on the low beam headlamps and open the hood. 4. On the wall or screen you will observe
a flat zone of high intensity light
located at the top of the beam pattern.
If the top edge of the flat zone of high
intensity light is not on the horizontal
reference line, adjust the aim of the
headlamp beam. 224

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Use a suitable tool, for
example a screwdriver or hexagonal
socket, to turn the adjuster clockwise
or counterclockwise to adjust the
vertical aim of the headlamp. The
horizontal edge of the brighter light
should touch the horizontal reference
line.
6. Close the hood and switch off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
The horizontal aim of the headlamp beam
on your vehicle is not adjustable.
REMOVING A HEADLAMP WARNING
Switch all of the lamps and the
ignition off. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious
personal injury. 1. Open the hood. See Opening and
Closing the Hood (page 207). 2. Remove the screws. 3. Pull the headlamp toward the front of
your vehicle to disengage it from its
locating points and then lift the
headlamp up. 4. Disconnect the electrical connectors.
Note:
When you install the headlamp, make
sure that you correctly attach the electrical
connector.
Note: When you install the headlamp, make
sure that you correctly engage its locating
points.
