WARNING
Anti-freeze is poisonous and should be
stored carefully in marked containers
out of the reach of children.
CAUTION
Do not substitute engine anti-freeze
coolant for window washer solution.
This may result in damage to the
paint.
Do not fill the window washer reser-
voir tank with washer fluid concen-
trates at full strength. Some methyl
alcohol based washer fluid concen-
trates may permanently stain the
grille if spilled while filling the win-
dow washer reservoir tank.
Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates
with water to the manufacturer’s rec-
ommended levels before pouring the
fluid into the window washer reser-
voir tank. Do not use the windowwasher reservoir tank to mix the
washer fluid concentrate and water.Keep the battery surface clean and dry. Any
corrosion should be washed off with a solu-
tion of baking soda and water.
Make certain the terminal connections are
clean and securely tightened.
If the vehicle is not to be used for 30 days or
longer, disconnect the (—) negative battery
terminal to prevent discharging it.
CAUTION
When the battery cable is removed from
the battery terminal, do not close either
of the front doors. The automatic win-
dow adjusting function will not work,
and the side roof panel/top side rail
may be damaged by doing so.
To disconnect the negative (−) battery ter-
minal, perform the procedure in the follow-
ing order. Otherwise, the window and the
side roof panel/top side rail may contact
and be damaged.
