WARNING: Avoid breathing R-134a refrigerant and PAG lubricant vapors,
exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. To remove
R-134a from system use R-134a recycling equipment that meets
SAE J2210 specifications. If accidental system discharge
occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
The anti-lock brake system contains electronic equipment that
can be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or
high output radio transmitting equipment. Since this interference
could cause the possible loss of the anti-lock braking capability,
such equipment should be installed by qualified professionals.
On models equipped with anti-lock brake systems, ALWAYS
observe the following cautions:
* DO NOT attempt to bleed hydraulic system without first
referring to the appropriate ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article
in the BRAKES Section.
* DO NOT mix tire sizes. As long as tires remain close to the
original diameter, increasing the width is acceptable.
Rolling diameter must be identical for all 4 tires. Some
manufacturers recommend tires of the same brand, style and
type. Failure to follow this precaution may cause inaccurate
wheel speed readings.
* Use ONLY recommended brake fluids. DO NOT use silicone brake
fluids in an ABS-equipped vehicle.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BATTERY WARNING
WARNING: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
computers may lose memory data. When battery power is
restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.
These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See
appropriate COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the
GENERAL INFORMATION section below.
BRAKE FLUID
For vehicles equipped with a traction control system, idle
engine while pouring brake fluid into reservoir.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction
could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to
converter and vehicle.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE SENSITIVE (ESD) PARTS
WARNING: Many solid state electrical components can be damaged by
static electricity (ESD). Some will display a warning label,
but many will not. Discharge personal static electricity by
Page 701 of 1333
CAMSHAFT TIMING BELT REPLACEMENT INFORMATION
CAUTION: Failure to replace a faulty camshaft timing belt may result
in serious engine damage.
The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be
checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive
belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components
on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty
schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or
replacement at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in
this manual reflect these changes.
Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any
of the following conditions exist:
* Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
* Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
* Oil Contamination
* Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
* Incorrect Tension Adjustment
Replace camshaft timing belt at 60,000 mile intervals.
SEVERE & NORMAL SERVICE DEFINITIONS
NOTE: Use the Severe Service schedule if the vehicle to be serviced
is operated under ANY (one or more) of these conditions:
Service is recommended at mileage intervals based on vehicle
operation. Service schedules are based on the following primary
operating conditions.
Normal Service
* Driven More Than 10 Miles Daily
* No Operating Conditions From Severe Service Schedule
Severe Service (Unique Driving Conditions)
* Short Trips In Freezing Temperatures
* Towing Or Commercial Use
* Driving Off-Road Or In Salty Or Sandy Areas
* Severe Dust Conditions
* Hot Weather, Stop-And-Go Driving
* Extensive Idling
SEVERE SERVICE REQUIREMENTS (PERFORM W/SERVICE SCHEDULES)
NOTE: The following services are to be performed on vehicles
subjected to severe service. See SEVERE & NORMAL SERVICE
DEFINITIONS. This service is to be performed in addition
to the normal services listed in the NORMAL MAINTENANCE
SERVICE SCHEDULES.

Light comes on with the ignition switch in the "ON" position
as a bulb check, but should go out shortly after engine is started. If
light remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates low oil
pressure and possible system malfunction. Have the system checked and
serviced immediately. Do not operate vehicle until cause is located
and corrected.
ALTERNATOR WARNING LIGHT
Light comes on with the ignition switch in the "ON" position
as a bulb check and goes out after engine is started. If light remains
on or comes on while driving, it indicates possible fault in the
electrical charging system. The alternator belt may be loose or
broken. Have the system checked and serviced promptly. Do not drive
vehicle if alternator belt is loose or broken.
"BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT
Light comes on with the ignition switch in the "ON" position
as a bulb check and goes out after engine is started. Light will also
come on with the parking brake fully or partially engaged. If light
remains on or comes on at any other time, it indicates low brake fluid
level in the master cylinder reservoir or the parking brake switch may
be damaged. Have the system checked and serviced immediately if brake
fluid level is low. Do not continue driving if further trouble is
experienced.
"CHECK ENGINE" WARNING LIGHT (IF EQUIPPED)
Light is designed to come on briefly with the ignition switch
in the "ON" position as a bulb check. If light remains on or comes on
while driving, it indicates fault in an exhaust gas related component
and the system is not functioning properly. Have the system checked
and serviced as soon as possible.
"MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" WARNING LIGHT (IF EQUIPPED)
Light comes on at 50,000 miles, 80,000 miles, 100,000 miles
and 120,000 miles (150,000 miles on 1990-91 models) as a service
reminder that it is time for the periodic maintenance of the emission
control system. Have the system inspected and serviced as necessary
when light comes on. Continued operation of vehicle without having
system serviced after warning light comes on may adversely affect
proper performance of the emission control system. Reset warning
light, after the system has been checked, by pushing the reset switch
in front of the combination meter. Remove the warning light bulb after
the last maintenance service at 120,000 miles (150,000 miles on 1990-
91 models).
"A/T TEMPERATURE" WARNING LIGHT (IF EQUIPPED)
Light comes on when the automatic transmission fluid
temperature becomes abnormally high. If light comes on, reduce engine
speed, stop car and put it in "P" (Park) position. Leave engine
running until light goes out. Normal vehicle operation may be resumed
after light has gone out. If light does not go out, have the system
checked and serviced as necessary.
WHEEL LOCK INDICATOR LIGHT (IF EQUIPPED)
Light comes on when automatic free-wheeling hubs are locked.
If ignition is turned off, indicator light will not come on when
Page 733 of 1333
ignition switch is turned on again until vehicle begins to move, even
if free-wheeling hubs are in locked condition. Light comes on or goes
out by detecting vehicle speed (approximately 3 mph). When vehicle
speed is less than 3 mph, the condition of the automatic free-wheeling
hubs may not agree with the indicator until vehicle speed is
increased. If vehicle has been parked in extremely cold weather in 4WD
mode, the light may remain lit, even after switching to 2WD,
indicating that hubs are still locked.
