If your vehicle was
first sold, when new,
in Canada,
you will
have this light on the
instrument panel.
It goes on whenever the Daytime Running Lamps are on.
When it begins to get dark, the DRL indicator light is a reminder to turn on
your headlamps.
Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) make it easier to see the front of your
vehicle during the day. DRL can be helpful
in many different driving
conditions, but
they can be especially helpful in the short periods after dawn
and before sunset.
The DRL system will make your high-beam headlamps come
on at a
reduced brightness when:
The ignition is on,
The headlamp switch is off, and
The parking brake is released.
When the DRL are on, only your high-beam headlamps will be
on. The
taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps
won’t be on. Your instrument panel
won’t be
lit up either.
When it begins to get dark, your DRL indicator light is
a reminder to turn
your headlamp switch on. The other lamps that come on with your
headlamps will also come
on.
When you turn the headlamp switch off, the regular lamps will go off, and
your high-beam headlamps
will change to the reduced brightness of DRL.
To idle your vehicle with the DRL off, set the parking brake. The DRL will
stay
off until you release the parking brake.
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular headlamp system when
you need it.

installed.
If the new one can be set to the mileage total of the old odometer,
then
it must be. But if it can't, then it's set at zero, and a label must be put
on the driver's door to show the old mileage reading when the new
odometer was installed.

readout.
The trip odometer on the digital will appear
in place of your regular
odometer when you press the TRIP button.
To reset the trip odometer on the digital cluster, press the RESET button. To
change back to the regular odometer, press the TRIP button again.
Warning Lights, Gages and Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that may be on your
vehicle. The pictures
will help you locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that something
is wrong before it
becomes serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement.
Paying attention to your warning lights and gages
could also save you or
others from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or
is a problem with one of your
vehicle's functions.
As you will see in the details on the next few pages,
some warning lights come on briefly when you start the engine just to let

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine You may prefer to use a non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner. This type
of cleaner uses a fabric belt to clean the tape head. This type of cleaner
cassette will not
cause an error, but it may not clean the tape player as
thoroughly
as the scrubbing type cleaner.
A scrubbing action cleaner cassette is available through your retailer (SPO
12344600).
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound quality may degrade over time.
Always verify that the cassette tape
is in good condition and the tape player
is clean before obtaining service on your tape player.
NOTICE:
Cassette tape adapter kits for portable CD players will not work
in your cassette player. These adapters will cause the radio t\
o
display an error and the adapter cassette
will be ejected.
Care of Compact Discs
Handle discs carefully. Store them in their original cases or other protective
cases and away from direct sunlight and dust. If
the surface of a disc is
soiled, dampen a clean, soft cloth
in a mild, neutral detergent solution and
clean it, wiping from
the center to the edge.
Be sure never
to touch the signal surface when handling discs. Pick up discs
by grasping the outer edges
or the edge of the hole and the outer edge.
Antenna Care
The fixed mast antenna can withstand most car washes without being
damaged. If the mast should ever become slightly bent,
you can straighten it
out by hand. If the mast
is badly bent, as it might be by vandals, you should
replace it.
Check every once in a while
to be sure the mast is still tightened to the
fender.
