Air bags may not inflate, when avehicle collides with objects such
as utility poles or trees, where the
impact point is concentrated and
the collision energy is absorbed by
the vehicle.
SRS Care
The SRS is virtually maintenance
free and there are no parts you can
safely maintain by yourself. In case
that the SRS air bag warning light
" " does not illuminate when turn-
ing ON the Engine Start/Stop button,
or when continuously remains ON,
have your vehicle immediately
inspected by an authorized EQUUS
dealer.
The SRS system, the steering wheel,
the front panel, the front seats and
the roof rails must be installed,
repaired, maintained or removed
only by an authorized EQUUS deal-
er. Improper SRS modification may
result in serious personal injury.

Modification to SRS compo-nents, such as a bandage
addition to the pad covers, or
other modifications to the
body structure may adversely
affect SRS performance and
result in injury.
Not only the modification of the area, where the SRS sen-
sor are installed, but also the
modification of other areas
may affect the SRS perform-
ance and result in possible
injury.
When cleaning the air bag pad covers, use only a soft and
dry cloth, or the one soaked
with plain water. Solvents or
cleaners may adversely affect
the air bag covers and prevent
its proper deployment.

To prevent the locks from
frozen
To prevent the locks from being
frozen, spray authorized de-icing
fluid or glycerin into key openings.
When a lock opening is already cov-
ered with ice, spray authorized de-
icing fluid on the ice to remove it.
When an internal part of a lock
freezes, try to thaw it with a heated
key. Carefully use the heated key to
avoid an injury.
Use authorized window-wash-
er anti-freezer solution in sys-
tem
To prevent the window washer from
being frozen, add authorized win-
dow-washer anti-freeze solution, as
instructed on the window-washer
container. Window-washer anti-
freeze solution is available from an
authorized EQUUS dealer, and so
are the most auto parts outlets. Do
not use engine coolant or other types
of anti-freezer solution, because
these may damage the vehicle paint.
Do not let your parking brake
freeze
Under some conditions, your parking
brake may freeze in the engaged
position. This is most likely to hap-
pen, when there is an accumulation
of snow or ice around/near the rear
brakes, or when the brakes are wet.
When there is the risk that your park-
ing brake may freeze, temporarily
apply it after locating the shift lever in
P(Park). Also, block the rear wheels
in advance, so the vehicle may not
roll. Then, release the parking brake.
Do not let ice and snow accu-
mulate underneath
Under some conditions, snow and
ice may build up under the fenders
and interfere with the steering. When
driving in such conditions during the
severe winter, you should check
underneath the vehicle on a regular
basis to assure that moving the front
wheels and the steering components
is unobstructed.
Carry emergency equipment
In accordance with weather condi-
tions, you should carry appropriate
emergency equipment, while driving.
Some of the items you may want to
carry include tire chains, tow straps,
chains, flashlight, emergency flares,
sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a win-
dow scraper, gloves, ground cloth,
coveralls and a blanket.
Do not place objects or materi-
als in the engine compartment
Putting objects or materials in the
engine compartment may cause an
engine failure or combustion,
because those may block the engine
cooling. The manufacturer is not
responsible for the damage caused
by such placement.

Maintenance
Interior care
Interior general precautions
Do not use chemicals, such as per-
fume, cosmetic oil, sun cream, hand
cleaner, and air freshener, inside the
vehicle, because they may damage
or discolor the interior. When one of
the above materials contacts the
interior part, immediately wipe them
off. Refer to the vinyl-cleaning
instructions for the proper cleaning
procedure.
Cleaning the upholstery andinterior trim
Vinyl
Dust the vinyl off with a whisk broom
or vacuum cleaner. Clean a vinyl sur-
face with a vinyl cleaner.
Fabric
Dust the fabric off with a whisk
broom or vacuum cleaner. Clean it
with a mild soap, recommended for
upholstery or carpets. Immediately
remove a stain with a fabric spot
cleaner. When a stain is not immedi-
ately removed, the stain may perma-
nently remain, and its color is
changed. Also, its fire-resistance
capacity is reduced, when the mate-
rial is not properly maintained.
Unauthorized cleaner or incorrect
cleaning procedures may impair
the fabric surface and the fire-
resistant capacity.
Cleaning the lap/shoulder beltwebbing
Clean the belt webbing with a mild
soap, recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Follow any
instructions of the soap. Do not
bleach or re-dye the webbing, as the
webbing surface may deteriorate.
Cleaning the interior windowglass
When the inner window surface
becomes fogged (possibly covered
with oily, greasy or waxy film), they
should be cleaned with a glass
cleaner. Follow any directions of the
glass cleaner.
Do not scrape or scratch the inner
surfaces of the rear windows. This
may damage the defroster grid of
the rear windows.

NOTICE
Never allow water or other liq-
uids to come in contact with
electrical/electronic compo-
nents inside the vehicle as
this may damage them.
When cleaning leather prod- ucts (i.e. steering wheel and
seats), use a neutral detergent
or a low-alcohol solution.
When using a solution, which
is rich in alcohol, acid or alka-
line, the leather color may
fade or the surface may get
stripped off.
