4) Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched.5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights and horn for proper opera- tion.6) Adjust the seat and head restraint (if equipped). 7) Check the brake pedal and the parkingbrake lever. 8) Adjust the mirrors. 9) Make sure that you and all passengershave properly fastened your seat belts. 10)Make sure that all warning lights come on as the key is turned to the “ON” posi-tion. 11)Check all gauges. 12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEMWARNING light turns off when the parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel tank, perform the following under-hood checks:
1) Engine oil level 2) Coolant level3) Brake fluid level 4) Windshield washer fluid level 5) Battery solution level6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. Make sure that you cannotopen the hood all the way without
releasing the secondary latch. Be sure to close the hood securely after check- ing for proper latch operation. See “Alllatches, hinges & locks” of “CHASSIS AND BODY” in the “Periodic Mainte- nance Schedule” in the “INSPECTIONAND MAINTENANCE” section for lubri- cation schedule.
Once a month, or each time you fill your fuel tank, check the tire pressure using a tire pressure gauge. Also check the tirepressure of the spare tire.
Engine Oil Consumption
It is normal for the engine to consume some engine oil during normal vehicle operation.
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the viscosity of the oil, thequality of the oil and the conditions the vehicle is driven under. More oil is consumed during high-speeddriving and when there is frequent acceler- ation and deceleration. Under high loads, your engine also will consume more oil.A new engine also consumes more oil, since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned. New engines reach the normal level of oil consumption only after approximately 5000km (3000 miles) driving.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L per 1000 km (1 Qt. per 600 miles)
When judging the amount of oil consump- tion, note that the oil may become diluted and make it difficult to accurately judge thetrue oil level. As an example, if a vehicle is used for repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not show any drop in the oil level at all, even after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-ing. This is because the oil is gradually becoming diluted with fuel or moisture, making it appear that the oil level has notchanged. You should also be aware that the diluting ingredients evaporate out when the vehicleis subsequently driven at high speeds, such as on an expressway, making it appear that oil is excessively consumedafter high-speed driving.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched before driv ing. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly duringdriving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.

Air conditioning switch (5) To turn on the air conditioning system, set the blower speed selector to a positionother than “OFF” and push in the “A/C” switch. With this “A/C” switch operation, a indicator light will come on when the airconditioning system is on. To turn off the air conditioning system, push the “A/C” switch again.
During operation of the air conditioner, you may notice slight changes in enginespeed. These changes are normal, the system is designed so that the compressor turns on or off to maintain the desired tem-perature.
Less operation of the compressor results in better fuel economy.
System Operating Instructions
Natural ventilationSelect “VENTILATION” and “FRESH AIR”, the temperature selector to the desired temperature position, and the blowerspeed selector to “OFF”. Fresh air will flow through the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation The control settings are the same as for natural ventilation except you set theblower speed selector to a position other than “OFF”.
Normal heating (using outside air) Select “HEAT” and “FRESH AIR”, the tem- perature selector to the desired tempera-ture position and the blower speed selector
to the desired blower speed position. Set- ting the blower speed selector to a higher blower speed position increases heatingefficiency.
Quick heating (using recirculated air) The control settings are the same as for normal heating except you select “RECIR- CULATED AIR”. If you use this heatingmethod for an extended period of time, the air in the vehicle can become contami- nated and the windows can become misty.Therefore, use this method only for quick heating and change to the normal heating method as soon as possible.
Head cooled/Feet warmed heating Select “BI-LEVEL” and “FRESH AIR”, thetemperature selector to the desired tem- perature position, and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed posi-tion. Unless the temperature selector is in the fully COLD position or fully HOT posi- tion, the air that comes out of the centerand side outlets will be cooler than the air that comes out of the floor outlets.
Normal cooling Set the air flow selector to “VENTILA- TION”, the temperatur e selector to the desired temperature position and the blower speed selector to the desired blower speed position, and turn on the “A/C” switch. Setting the blower speed selec- tor to a higher blower speed position increases cooling efficiency.
You can switch the air intake selector to either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULATED AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RECIRCU-LATED AIR” increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air) The control settings are the same as for normal cooling except you select “RECIR- CULATED AIR” and the highest blowerspeed.
NOTE: • To turn on the air conditioning system, push in the “A/C” switch and set the blower speed selector to a position otherthan “OFF”. With this “A/C” switch opera- tion, an indicator light will come on when the air conditioning system is on. To turnoff the air conditioning system, push the “A/C” switch again. • During operation of the air conditioner,you may notice slight changes in engine speed. These changes are normal, the system is designed so that the compres-sor turns on or of f to maintain the desired temperature. Less operation of the compressor result s in better fuel economy.
NOTE: • If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR” for an extended period of time, the air in the vehicle can become contaminated.Therefore, you should occasionally select “FRESH AIR”. • If your vehicle has been left in the sunwith the windows closed, it will cool

DehumidifyingSet the air flow selector to a desired air flow selector position, the temperature selector to the desired temperature position and theblower speed selector to the desired blower speed position. Also select “FRESH AIR” and turn on the “A/C” switch.
NOTE:Because the air conditioner dehumidifiesthe air, turning it on will help keep the win- dows clear, even when blowing heated air using the “DEFROST” or “HEAT &DEFROST” functions.
76MH0A090
NOTE:If you need maximum defrosting:• set the air flow selector to “DEFROST”,
• set the blower speed selector to HIGH, • adjust the temperature selector to the HOT end, • turn on the “A/C” switch, and• adjust the side outlets so the air blows on the side windows.
MaintenanceIf you do not use the air conditioner for a long period, such as during winter, it may not give the best performance when youstart using it again. To help maintain opti- mum performance and durability of your air conditioner, it needs to be run periodically.Operate the air conditioner at least once a month for one minute with the engine idling. This circulates the refrigerant and oiland helps protect the internal components.
NOTE: Your vehicle uses the air conditioning refrigerant HFC-134a, commonly called “R-134a”. R-134a replaced R-12 around1993 for automotive applications. Other refrigerants are available, including recy- cled R-12, but only R-134a should be usedin your vehicle.
Radio Antenna
68KN028
The radio antenna on the roof is remov-able. To remove the antenna, turn it coun-terclockwise. To reinstall the antenna, turn it clockwise firmly by hand.
EXAMPLE
NOTICE
Using the wrong refrigerant may damage your air conditioning sys- tem. Use R-134a only. Do not mix or replace the R-134a with other refrig-erants.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to the radio antenna: • Remove the antenna when using anautomatic car wash. • Remove the antenna when the antenna hits anything such as alow ceiling in a parking garage or putting a car cover over your vehi- cle.

Windshield Washer Fluid
Front
80JM078
Check that there is washer fluid in the tank.Refill it if necessary. Use a good quality windshield washer fluid, diluted with water as necessary.
Air Conditioning System
If you do not use the air conditioner for along period, such as during winter, it maynot give the best performance when you start using it again. To help maintain opti- mum performance and durability of your airconditioner, it needs to be run periodically. Operate the air condit ioner at least once a month for one minute with the engineidling. This circulates the refrigerant and oil and helps protect the internal components.
EXAMPLE
WA R N I N G
Do not use “antifreeze” solution in the windshield washer reservoir. Thiscan severely impair visibility when sprayed on the windshield, and can also damage your vehicle’s paint.
NOTICE
Damage may result if the washermotor is operated with no fluid in the washer tank.
