RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use
only lubricants of the proper quality. The correct lubricants also help promote
engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

2 : Engine oils labelled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they con-
tribute to fuel economy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these
improvements are difficult to measure in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost
and energy savings.

WARNING
Cargo
Cargo should always be secured
to prevent it from being thrown
about the vehicle in a collision and
causing injury to the vehicle occu-
pants. Do not place objects in the
rear seats, since they cannot be
properly secured and may hit the
front seat occupants in a collision.
WARNING
Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
Automated manual transmission
is in N (Neutral) or the Manual
transmission is in R (Reverse) or
1st, and the parking brake is
securely applied whenever loading
or unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehicle
to move if the shift lever is inadver-
tently moved to another position.
Head restraint
The vehicle’s front and rear seats
have adjustable head restraints. The
head restraints provide comfort for
passengers, but more importantly
they are designed to help protect
passengers from whiplash and other
neck and spinal injuries during an
accident, especially in a rear impact
collision.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death in an accident, take the
following precautions when adjust-
ing your head restraints:
‡ Always properly adjust the head
restraints for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.

OAC3039033TU
Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehicle
causing it to “ride” under a vehicle
with a higher ground clearance. Air
bags may not inflate in this “under-
ride” situation because deceleration
forces that are detected by sensors
may be significantly reduced by such
“underride” collisions.
OHI038166
Front air bags may not inflate in roll-
over accidents because front air bag
deployment would not provide addi-
tional occupant protection.
i Information
‡ 9ehicles equipped with rollover sen-
sor
7he side and curtain air bags may
inflate in a rollover situation, when it
is detected by the rollover sensor.
‡ 9ehicles not equipped with rollover
sensor
7he side and/or curtain air bags may
inflate when the vehicle is rolled over
by a side impact collision, if the vehi-
cle is equipped with side and/or cur-
tain air bags.
OAC3039034TU
Air bags may not inflate if the vehicle
collides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point of
impact is concentrated and the colli-
sion energy is absorbed by the vehi-
cle structure.
