CODE
MODEL YEAR PLANT
This is the legal identifier for your vehicle. It appears on
a plate in the front corner
of the instrument panel, on the
driver’s side. You can see it if
you look through the
windshield from outside your vehicle. The
VIN also
appears on the Vehicle Certification and Service Parts
labels and the certificates
of title and registration.
Engine Identification
The 8th character in your VIN is the engine code. This
code will help you identify your engine, specifications
and replacement
parts.
Service Parts Identification Label
You’ll find this label on the front passenger door frame.
It’s very helpful if you ever need to order parts. On this
label is:
your VIN,
the model designation,
0 paint information and
a list of all production options and
special equipment.
Be sure that this label
is not removed from the vehicle.

Electrical System
Add-on Electrical Equipment
I NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your vehicle
unless you check with your dealer first. Some
electrical equipment can damage your vehicle
and the damage wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment
can keep other components from working as
they should.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical
to your vehicle, see “Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle” in the Index.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the lamp switch. An electrical overload will cause the
lamps to flicker on and off, or in some cases
to remain
off. If this happens, have your headlamp wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
Although the circuit is protected from electrical
overload, overload due to heavy snow, etc., may cause
wiper linkage damage. Always clear ice and heavy snow
from the the windshield before using the windshield
wipers. If the overload is caused by some electrical
problem and not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.

Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The fuse block access door
is
on the driver’s side of the
instrument panel above
the
hood release lever.
You can remove the cover
by turning the fastener
counterclockwise.
You can remove fuses with a fuse extractor. The
fuse
extractor is mounted to the fuse block access door.
To remove fuses if you don’t have a fuse extractor, hold
the end of the
fuse between your thumb and index finger
and pull straight out. Be
sure
to use the correct fuse. If you ever have a
problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse,
you can “borrow” one of the correct value. Just pick
some feature of your vehicle that you can get along
without
-- like the radio or cigarette lighter -- and use
its fuse,
if it is of the value you need. Replace it as soon
as
you can. See “Fuses and Circuit Breakers” in the
Index for more information.
