WARNING!
Do not use alcohol or gasoline as a fuel-
blending agent. They can be unstable under
certain conditions and hazardous or explosive
when mixed with diesel fuel.
Diesel fuel is seldom completely free of water.
To prevent fuel system trouble, drain the accu-
mulated water from the fuel/water separator
using the provided fuel/water separator drain. If
you buy good quality fuel and follow the cold
weather advice above, fuel conditioners should
not be required in your vehicle. If available in
your area, a high cetane “premium” diesel fuel
may offer improved cold-starting and warm-up
performance.
ADDING FUEL
Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap)
The gas cap is located behind the locking fuel
filler door, on the driver’s side of the vehicle. If
the gas cap is lost or damaged, be sure the
replacement cap is for use with this vehicle.
1. Press the fuel filler door release switch (lo-
cated under the headlamp switch). 2. Open the fuel filler door, and remove the fuel
filler cap.
CAUTION!
•
Damage to the fuel system or emission
control system could result from using an
improper fuel cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting
cap could let impurities into the fuel system.
Also, a poorly fitting aftermarket cap can
cause the “Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)” to illuminate, due to fuel vapors
escaping from the system.
• A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the MIL
to turn on.
• To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not
“top off” the fuel tank after filling.
WARNING!
•Never have any smoking materials lit in or
near the vehicle when the gas cap is re-
moved or the tank is being filled.
• Never add fuel when the engine is running.
This is in violation of most state and federal
fire regulations and may cause the mal-
function indicator light to turn on.

•Anytime you store your vehicle, or keep it out
of service (i.e. vacation) for two weeks or
more, run the air conditioning system at idle
for about five minutes in the fresh air and
high blower setting. This will ensure ad-
equate system lubrication to minimize the
possibility of compressor damage when the
system is started again.

WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb
sockets of High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlamps when the headlamp switch is
turned ON. It may cause serious electrical
shock or electrocution if not serviced properly.
See your authorized dealer for service. NOTE:
Numbers refer to commercial bulb types
that can be purchased from your authorized
dealer.
If a bulb needs to be replaced, visit your
authorized dealer or refer to the applicable
Service Manual.
BULB REPLACEMENT
High Intensity Discharge Headlamps
(HID) – If Equipped
The headlamps are a type of high voltage
discharge tube. High voltage can remain in the
circuit even with the headlamp switch off and
the key removed.
Because of this, you should
not attempt to service a headlamp bulb your-
self. If a headlamp bulb fails, take your
vehicle to an authorized dealer for service.

WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb
sockets of High Intensity Discharge (HID)
headlamps when the headlamp switch is
turned ON. It may cause serious electrical
shock or electrocution if not serviced properly.
See your authorized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with High Intensity
Discharge (HID) headlamps, when the head-
lamps are turned on, there is a blue hue to
the lamps. This diminishes and becomes
more white after approximately 10 seconds,
as the system charges.
Halogen Headlamps – If Equipped
1. Open the hood.
2. Turn the low or high beam bulb one–quarter
turn counterclockwise to remove from housing.
3. Disconnect the electrical connector and re-
place the bulb.
CAUTION!
Do not touch the new bulb with your fingers.
Oil contamination will severely shorten bulb
life. If the bulb comes in contact with any oily
surface, clean the bulb with rubbing alcohol.
Front Turn Signal
1. Open the hood.
2. Turn the turn signal bulb one–quarter turn
counterclockwise to remove from housing.
3. Disconnect the electrical connector and re-
place the bulb.
CAUTION!
Do not touch the new bulb with your fingers.
Oil contamination will severely shorten bulb
life. If the bulb comes in contact with any oily
surface, clean the bulb with rubbing alcohol.
Front Fog Lamps
1. Reach through the cutout in the splash
shield and disconnect the wiring harness from
the fog lamp connector. 2. Firmly grasp the bulb by the two latches and
squeeze them together to unlock the bulb from
the back of the front fog lamp housing.
3. Pull the bulb straight out from the keyed
opening in the housing.
CAUTION!
•
Do not touch the new bulb with your fin-
gers. Oil contamination will severely
shorten bulb life. If the bulb comes in
contact with any oily surface, clean the bulb
with rubbing alcohol.
• Always use the correct bulb size and type
for replacement. An incorrect bulb size or
type may overheat and cause damage to
the lamp, the socket or the lamp wiring.
4. Align the index tabs of the front fog lamp
bulb with the slots in the collar of the bulb
opening on the back of the front fog lamp
housing.
5. Insert the bulb into the housing until the
index tabs are engaged in the slots of the collar.
