WARNING!
²Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause it to fail when
you need it. You could be injured if the airbag system is not there to
protect you. Do not modify the components or wiring, including adding
any kind of badges or stickers to the steering wheel hub trim cover or the
upper passenger side of the instrument panel. Do not modify the front
bumper or vehicle body structure.
²Do not attempt to modify any part of your advanced airbag system. The
airbag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modifica-
tions are made. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer for any advanced
airbag system service. If your seat including your trim cover and cushion
needs to be serviced in any way (including removal or loosening/
tightening of seat attachment bolts), take the vehicle to your authorized
dealer. Only manufacturer approved seat accessories may be used. If it is
necessary to modify an advanced airbag system for persons with disabili-
ties, contact your authorized dealer.
²Do not place or hang any items such as add-on video players on the front
passenger seat back. The additional weight may cause the Occupant
Classification System to be unable to classify the front seat passenger
correctly. This could allow the passenger frontal airbag to inflate when it
is not desired.
²It is dangerous to try to repair any part of the airbag system yourself. Be
sure to tell anyone who works on your vehicle that it has an airbag system.
66 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call a service center if your
vehicle overheats. If you decide to look under the
hood yourself, see Section 7 of this manual. Follow
the warnings under the Cooling System Pressure Cap
paragraph.
23. Coolant Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature. Any reading within the normal range indicates
that the cooling system is operating satisfactorily. The
gauge pointer will likely indicate a high temperature
when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, in
heavy traffic, or when towing a trailer. If the pointer rises
to the ªHº mark, safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If
