Introduction

SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION

Warning symbols in this guide

How can you reduce the risk of personal injury and prevent possible

damage to others, your vehicle and its equipment? In this guide, answers

to such questions are contained in comments highlighted by the warning

triangle symbol. These comments should be read and observed.

Warning symbols on your vehicle

When you see this symbol, it is

imperative that you consult the

relevant section of this guide before

touching or attempting adjustment

of any kind.

Protecting the environment

We must all play our part in

protecting the environment. Correct

vehicle usage and the authorized

disposal of waste cleaning and

lubrication materials are significant

steps towards this aim. Information in this respect is highlighted in this

guide with the tree symbol.

BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE

Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive

continuously at the same speed for the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles) of

new vehicle operation. Vary your speed to allow parts to adjust

themselves to other parts.

Drive your new vehicle at least 800 km (500 miles) before towing a

trailer.

Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils during

the first few thousand kilometers (miles) of operation, since these

additives may prevent piston ring seating. See Engine oil in the

Maintenance and specifications chapter for more information on oil

usage.

Introduction

WARNING LIGHTS AND CHIMES

Warning lights and gauges can alert you to a vehicle condition that may

become serious enough to cause expensive repairs. A warning light may

illuminate when a problem exists with one of your vehicle’s functions.

Many lights will illuminate when you start your vehicle to make sure the

bulb works. If any light remains on after starting the vehicle, have

the respective system inspected immediately.

Service engine soon

The light illuminates briefly to

ensure the system is functional. If it

comes on after the engine is started,

one of the engine’s emission control

systems may be malfunctioning. The light may illuminate without a

driveability concern being noted. The vehicle will usually be drivable and

will not require towing.

Light remains on:

Temporary malfunctions may cause your light to illuminate.

Examples are:

1. The vehicle has run out of fuel.

2. Poor fuel quality or water in the fuel.

3. The fuel cap may not have been properly installed and securely

tightened.

These temporary malfunctions can be corrected by filling the fuel tank

with high quality fuel of the recommended octane and/or properly

installing and securely tightening the fuel cap. After three driving cycles

without these or any other temporary malfunctions present, the

light should turn off. (A driving cycle consists of a cold engine startup

followed by mixed city/highway driving.) No additional vehicle service is

required.
