Engine power and under certain
conditions, vehicle speed will
decrease. Vehicle speed can be
controlled with the accelerator
pedal, but the vehicle may not
accelerate at the desired speed.
The transmission will downshift or
upshift as it reaches prescribed shift
points. You can also shift manually.

reduced, vehicle speed can be
increased using the accelerator
pedal, and air conditioning cooling
function will automatically be turned
back ON.
If:1. The engine coolant temperature is not reduced.
2. The air conditioning cooling function does not turn
back ON.
3. The engine oil pressure low/ engine coolant temperature
high warning light illuminates,
this may indicate a malfunction.
Move the vehicle off the road in
a safe area and allow the engine to cool. If after checking
the oil and coolant, the oil
pressure low/engine coolant
temperature high warning light
remains on, do not continue to
drive. Call your dealer.
The malfunction indicator light may
also come on. If only it remains on,
you do not need to have the vehicle
towed, but have it inspected soon
by your dealer. For additional
information, see Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (Check Engine
Light) 091.
Washer Fluid
What to Use
When the vehicle needs windshield
washer fluid, read the
manufacturer's instructions before
use. If operating the vehicle in an
area where the temperature may fall
below freezing, use a fluid that has
sufficient protection against
freezing.
Adding Washer Fluid
Open the cap with the washer
symbol on it. Add washer fluid until
the reservoir is full. See Engine
Compartment Overview 0181 for
reservoir location.
Caution
. Do not use washer fluid that
contains any type of water
repellent coating. This can
cause the wiper blades to
chatter or skip.

soft cloth, and a car washing soap
to clean exterior lamps, lenses,
emblems, decals, and stripes.
Follow instructions under "Washing
the Vehicle" previously in this
section.
Lamp covers are made of plastic,
and some have a UV protective
coating. Do not clean or wipe them
when dry.

lamp covers:
.Abrasive or caustic agents.
. Washer fluids and other cleaning
agents in higher concentrations
than suggested by the
manufacturer.
. Solvents, alcohols, fuels,
or other harsh cleaners.
. Ice scrapers or other hard items. .
Aftermarket appearance caps or
covers while the lamps are
illuminated, due to excessive
heat generated.
Caution
Failure to clean lamps properly
can cause damage to the lamp
cover that would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty.
Caution
Using wax on low gloss black
finish stripes can increase the
gloss level and create a
non-uniform finish. Clean low
gloss stripes with soap and
water only.
Air Intakes
Clear debris from the air intakes,
between the hood and windshield
when washing the vehicle.
Windshield and Wiper Blades

cloth or paper towel soaked with
windshield washer fluid or a mild
detergent. Wash the windshield
thoroughly when cleaning the
blades. Bugs, road grime, sap, and
a buildup of vehicle wash/wax
treatments may cause wiper
streaking.
Replace the wiper blades if they are
worn or damaged. Damage can be
caused by extreme dusty
conditions, sand, salt, heat, sun,
snow, and ice.
Weatherstrips
Apply Dielectric silicone grease on
weatherstrips to make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or
squeak. Lubricate weatherstrips at
least once a year. Hot, dry climates
may require more frequent
application. Black marks from
