Special Care for Canvas Top
To protect the canvas top:
After you wash the vehicle, make
sure the top is completely dry before
you open or remove
it.
Don’t get any vinyl cleaner on the
vehicle’s painted finish; it could leave
streaks.
Don’t go through automatic car
washes;
the canvas top could be
damaged.
The plastic windows are pliable and can
be scratched
if you don’t take these
precautions when you clean them:
Wipe off dust with a soft cotton cloth
moistened
with clean, cool or
lukewarm water. Don’t use a “dry”
cloth. Wipe
in one direction only, not
back and forth.
To remove frost, snow or ice, use
lukewarm water. Don’t use a scraper
or any de-icing fluids.
Wash the windows with a soft cloth
and clean, cool or lukewarm water. Never
use a dry cloth, hot water,
strong soap or detergent, solvents or
harsh cleaning agents. Rinse
thoroughly and wipe with a slightly
moist
soft, clean cloth.
Don’t put any labels, stickers or tape
on windows. It’s hard to remove
adhesives left on the window when such items are removed. If a sticker
or label must be removed, remove
any adhesive
left on the window while
the adhesive is still soft and sticky.
Press
on a new sticker or piece of
tape and then lift it off again; keep
doing this until all the adhesive lifts
off with the sticker or tape.

I Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in your car are
protected from short circuits
by fuses,
circuit breakers
or a thermal link in the
wiring itself. This greatly reduces
the
chance of fires caused by electrical
problems.
The main fuse
box in your engine
compartment
on the right side. It
protects all electrical loads. For
access to the main fuses, pull off
cover.
A spare fuse is also inside the
fuse box. Another fuse
box is under
the left side
of the instrument panel. The fuses here
protect each separate circuit including
headlights.
If you have electrical failure,
check here first.

Look at the silver-colored band inside
the fuse.
If the band is broken or
melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new
one of the
correct size.
If you ever have a problem on the road
and don't have a spare fuse, you can
borrow one. Just pick some feature of
your car that
you can get along without
- like the radio or cigarette lighter -
and use its fuse, if it is the size you
need. Replace it as soon as you can.
Before replacing a fuse turn every
vehicle electrical switch off.

OR SERVICE
Brake System
Inspection
Clutch System Service
~
WHAT TO DO
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface condition.
Also
inspect drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums,
wheel cylinders, calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adjustment.
You may need to
have your brakes inspected more often if your driving habits or conditions result in frequent
braking.
NOTE: A low fluid brake level can indicate worn disc brake pads which may need to be
serviced. Also,
if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on at any time something
may be wrong with either the regular or rear wheel anti-lock brake system, or both systems. See
“Brake Svstem Warning Light” in the Index.
Check clutch pedal free travel and adjust as necessary. See “Clutch Adjustment”
in the Index.
