Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning
to end when they first receive their new vehicle.
If
you do this, it will help you learn about the features
and controls for
your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll
find that pictures and words work together to explain
things quickly.
A good place to look for what you need is the Index in
back
of the manual. It’s an alphabetical list of what’s in
the manual, and the page number’where you’ll find it.
You will find a number of safety cautions in ~s book.
We use a box and the word
CAUTION to tell you
about things that could hurt you if you were to ignore
the warning.
In the caution area, we tell YOU what the hazard is. Then
we tell
you what to do to help avoid or reduce the .
hazard. Please read these cautions. If YOU don’t, you or
others could be
hurt.
You will also find a circle
with a slash through it
in
this book. This safety
symbol means “Don’t,’’
“Don’t
do this” OH “Don’t
let this happen.”

Also, in this book YOU will Eind these notices:
In the notice area, we tell you about somefling that can
damage
your vehicle. Many times, this damage would
not
be covered by your warranty, and it could be
costly. But the notice will tell you what to di~ to kelp
avoid the damage.
When
you read other manuals, you might see
CAUTION and NOTICE warnings in different
colors
3r in different words.
You’ll also see waxing Babels on your vehicle. They use
the same words, CAUTION oh: NOTICE.
