Cleaning
Soak the drawer, with the drawer front facing up, in a
mixture of medium hot tap water and one teaspoon of
mild liquid dish soap. Let soak for approximately one
hour. After one hour pull the drawer from the water and
dip it back into the water about six times. This will loosen
any remaining debris. Rinse the drawer thoroughly un-
der warm running water. Shake the excess water from the
drawer and dry the outer surfaces with a clean soft cloth.
Let the drawer sit in a dish drainer overnight to allow the
inside mechanism to dry.
Installation
Align the drawer so the plastic tracks on the drawer fit
into the steel retainer in the instrument panel. Push the
drawer forward. You may want to cycle the drawer open
and closed a few times to ensure proper operation.
INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (IPM)
An Integrated Power Module is located in the engine
compartment near the battery. This center contains maxi
fuses, mini fuses and relays. A label that identifies each
component is printed on the inside of the cover.

CAUTION!
•When installing the Integrated Power Module
cover, it is important to ensure the cover is prop-
erly positioned and fully latched. Failure to do so
may allow water to get into the Integrated Power
Module, and possibly result in a electrical system
failure.
•When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to
use only a fuse having the correct amperage
rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than
indicated may result in a dangerous electrical
system overload. If a properly rated fuse contin-
ues to blow, it indicates a problem in the circuit
that must be corrected.
The Heated Mirrors, Lower Instrument Panel Power
Outlet and Removable Floor Console, when in the frontposition are fused with self resetting fuses that are only
serviceable by an authorized dealer. The power seats are
fused by a 30 Amp circuit breaker located under the
driver’s seat. The Power Windows are fused by a 25 Amp
circuit breaker located under the instrument panel near
the steering column. If you experience temporary or
permanent loss of these systems see your authorized
dealer for service.
VEHICLE STORAGE
If you are leaving your vehicle dormant for more than 21
days you may want to take steps to protect your battery.
You may:
•Remove the 20 Amp mini fuse in the Integrated Power
Module labeled Ignition-Off Draw (IOD).
•Or, disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
•Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out of
service (i.e. vacation) for two weeks or more, run the

in the fresh air and high blower setting. This will
insure adequate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the system is
started again.
