CAUTION!
• Use of power washers exceeding
1,200 psi (8,274 kPa) can result in
damage or removal of paint and decals.
Special Care
• If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you
drive near the ocean, hose off the undercar-
riage at least once a month.
• It is important that the drain holes in the
lower edges of the doors, rocker panels, and
trunk be kept clear and open.
• If you detect any stone chips or scratches in
the paint, touch them up immediately. The
cost of such repairs is considered the re-
sponsibility of the owner.
• If your vehicle is damaged due to a collision
or similar cause that destroys the paint and
protective coating, have your vehicle re-
paired as soon as possible. The cost of such
repairs is considered the responsibility of
the owner.• If you carry special cargo such as chemi-
cals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., be sure
that such materials are well packaged and
sealed.
• If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads,
consider mud or stone shields behind each
wheel.
• An authorized dealer has touch up paint to
match the color of your vehicle.

Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not
harmful to your engine. However, continued
heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause

Poor quality gasoline can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling, and hesita-
tions. If you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before considering
service for the vehicle.

tions. If you experience these symptoms, try

Ethanol
The manufacturer recommends that your ve-
hicle be operated on fuel containing no more
than 10% ethanol. Purchasing your fuel from
a reputable supplier may reduce the risk of
exceeding this 10% limit and/or of receiving
fuel with abnormal properties.
CAUTION!
Use of fuel with Ethanol content higher
than 10% may result in engine malfunc-
tion, starting and operating difficulties,
and materials degradation. These adverse
effects could result in permanent damage
to your vehicle.
Materials Added To Fuel
Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning
agents should be avoided. Many of these
materials intended for gum and varnish re-
moval may contain active solvents or similar
ingredients. These can harm fuel system gas-
ket and diaphragm materials.
Fuel System Cautions
CAUTION!
Follow these guidelines to maintain your
vehicle’s performance:
• The use of leaded gasoline is prohibited
by law. Using leaded gasoline can impair
CAUTION!
engine performance and damage the
emissions control system.
• An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or
ignition malfunctions can cause the
catalytic converter to overheat. If you
notice a pungent burning odor or some
light smoke, your engine may be out of
tune or malfunctioning and may require
immediate service. Contact an autho-
rized dealer for service assistance.
• The use of fuel additives, which are now
being sold as octane enhancers, is not
recommended. Most of these products
contain high concentrations of metha-
nol. Fuel system damage or vehicle per-
formance problems resulting from the
use of such fuels or additives is not the
responsibility of the manufacturer and
may void or not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
NOTE:
Intentional tampering with the emissions
control system can result in civil penalties
being assessed against you.

anti-static cloth to clean and do not press.
•Never use alcohol, gas and derivatives to
clean the display lens.
•Prevent any liquid from entering the sys-
tem: this could damage it beyond repair.
Anti-Theft Protection
The system is equipped with an anti-theft
protection system based on the exchange of
information with the electronic control unit
(Body Computer) on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and prevents
the secret code from being entered after the
power supply has been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the system
will start to operate, whereas if the comparison
codes are not the same or if the electronic
control unit (Body Computer) is replaced, the
system will ask the user to enter the secret code.
