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.

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.

Every now and then have your dealership check your air conditioning
system to be sure it has not lost any cooling ability. If you think\
the system
is not working properly, have your dealership check it out as \
soon as
possible.
The air conditioning will not work when the temperature is below
40°F
(4°C).
Lock Cylinders
To be sure your locks operate properly, they must be lubricated.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often to lubricate them
and what type
of lubricant to use.
You should not
use penetrating oils because they could wash out me factory
installed lubricant and cause the lock to bind. De-icers which \
contain
alcohol could also wash away the lubricant,
so be sure to lubricate the lock
after using a de-icer of this type.
Exhaust System
To help prevent damage to your exhaust system, do not continue to drive
your vehicle
if you notice:
0 Engine misfiring
0 Loss of performance
0 Exhaust system components hanging lower than normal.
0 Loud exhaust system noises.
0 Other unusual operating conditions
Have your engine and exhaust system serviced regularly.
Three-way Catalytic Converter
Your vehicle’s three-way catalytic converter is designed to reduce \
the
pollutants in your vehicle’s exhaust. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle.
If you use leaded fuel, you could damage your three-way catalytic converter
and other engine components.
Engine Control Module System
This system has an oxygen (02) sensor that helps keep your engine’s
air-fuel mixture at a proper level. Use only unleaded fuel
in your vehicle. If
you use leaded fuel, you could damage your oxygen (02) sensor and affect
your vehicle’s emissions.

Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on Fabric

stains will clean

or scraper. Use very little cleaner, light pressure and clean cloths
(preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning should start at the outside
of the
stain, “feathering” toward the center. Keep changing to a clean section
of the cloth.
0 When you clean a stain from fabric, immediately dry the area with a
blow dryer to help prevent
a cleaning ring. (See the previous NOTICE.)
