Only use diesel exhaust fluid that is
certified by the American Petroleum
Institute (API). Non-certified diesel
exhaust fluid use can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Note:
Wash off any fluid that may have
spilled on to a painted surface with soapy
water.
Filling in Cold Climates
Diesel exhaust fluid may freeze when the
temperature is below 12°F (-11°C). Your
vehicle has a preheating system which
allows the fluid to operate below
12°F
(-11°C). If you overfill the diesel exhaust
fluid tank and the fluid freezes, it may
cause damage not covered by the vehicle
Warranty.
Filling the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
Tank Using a Fuel Station Pump WARNING:
Keep diesel exhaust
fluid out of reach of children. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing. In
case of contact with your eyes, flush
immediately with water and get prompt
medical attention. In case of contact
with your skin, clean immediately with
soap and water. If you swallow any
diesel exhaust fluid, drink plenty of
water, call a physician immediately. WARNING:
Only refill the diesel
exhaust fluid tank in a well ventilated
area. When you remove the diesel
exhaust fluid tank filler cap or a diesel
exhaust fluid container cap, ammonia
vapors may escape. Ammonia vapors
can be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Inhaling ammonia vapors
can cause burning to the eyes, throat and
nose and cause coughing and watery
eyes.
Filling the diesel exhaust fluid tank using
a fuel station pump is similar to refueling
your vehicle.
1. Fully open the fuel filler door. 2. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap.
3. Fully insert the diesel exhaust fluid pump nozzle.

The positive (+) access terminal is next to
the fuse box, under a red cap. To access
the positive (+) terminal, lift the red cap
up.
The negative (-) terminal is a post, located
on the driver side, near the hood hinge. It
is a grounding connection point, so you will
need to remove the rubber covering first. Connecting the Jumper Cables
WARNING: Do not attach the
cables to fuel lines, engine rocker covers,
the intake manifold or electrical
components as grounding points. Stay
clear of moving parts. To avoid reverse
polarity connections, make sure that you
correctly identify the positive (+) and
negative (-) terminals on both the
disabled and booster vehicles before
connecting the cables.
Note: In the illustration, the bottom vehicle
represents the booster vehicle. 1.
Connect the positive (+) jumper cable
to the positive (+) access terminal of
the vehicle with the discharged battery.

This occurs when approximately 7 fl oz
(200 ml) of water accumulates in the fuel
filter water trap. Have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
Alternatively you can drain the fuel filter
water trap. See
Draining the Fuel Filter
Water Trap (page 297).
WASHER FLUID CHECK
When adding fluid, use a mixture of washer
fluid and water to help prevent freezing in
cold weather and improve the cleaning
capability. For information on fluid dilution,
refer to the product instructions. We
recommend that you only use high quality
washer fluid.
Note: The reservoir supplies the front and
rear washer systems.
FUEL FILTER - GASOLINE
Your vehicle is equipped with a lifetime
fuel filter that is integrated with the fuel
tank. Regular maintenance or replacement
is not needed.
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 FRONT WIPER
BLADES
1. Lift the wiper arm. Press the wiper
blade locking button.
Note: Do not hold the wiper blade when
lifting the wiper arm.
2. Remove the wiper blade.
Note: Make sure that the wiper arm does
not spring back against the glass when the
wiper blade is not attached.
3. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
Note: Make sure that the wiper blade locks
into place.
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
