To Adjust the HUD so You Can See it
Properly:
The HUD controls are located to the left
of the steering column.
1, Start your engine and slide the DIM
(dimmer) control all the way up.
The brightness of the
HUD image is
determined by whether the headlight
switch
is on or off, and where you have
set the
HUD dimmer control.
2. Adjust the seat, if necessary, before
setting the height control. control all the
way up, raising the
image as far as possible. Then slide
the
HUD image height control
downward
so the image is as low as
possible but
in full view.
3. Slide the dimmer control down until
the
HUD image is no brighter than
necessary.
To turn the HUD off, slide
the dimmer control all
the way down.
If the sun comes
out, or it becomes
cloudy, or
if you turn on your
headlights,
you may need to adjust the
HUD’s brightness using the HUD
dimmer control. Polarizing sunglasses
could make the
HUD image harder to
see.
I bright, or too high in your
field of view,
it may take you more
time to see things you need
to see
when it’s dark outside. Be sure to
keep the
HUD image dim and
placed low
in your field of view.
Pushing the
ENGIMET (English/Metric)
button will switch the
HUD
speedometer indicator from English
(conventional) to metric units, or back
again.

Care of the Head-Up Display
Clean the inside of the windshield as
needed to remove any dirt or film that
reduces the sharpness or clarity
of the
HUD image.
To Clean the HUD:
Spray household glass cleaner on a soft,
clean cloth. Wipe the HUD lens gently,
then
dry it. Do not spray cleaner
directly on the lens, because the cleaner
fluid could leak inside the unit
if you do.

Rear Drum Brakes
Your rear drum brakes don’t have wear
indicators, but
if you ever hear a rear
brake rubbing noise, have the rear brake
linings inspected. Also, the rear brake drums should be removed and inspected
each time the tires are removed for
rotation or changing. When you have the
front brakes replaced, have the rear
brakes inspected, too.
Brake linings should always be replaced as complete axle sets.
Brake Pedal Travel
See your dealer if the brake pedal does
not return to normal height, or if there
is a rapid increase in pedal travel. This
could be a sign of brake trouble.
Brake Adjustment
Every time you make a moderate brake
stop, your brakes adjust for wear. If you
rarely make a moderate or heavier stop,
then your brakes might not adjust
correctly. If you drive in that way,
then-very carefully-make a few
moderate brake stops about every
1,000
miles (1 600 km), so your brakes will
adjust properly.
Braking In Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when
you need to. With anti-lock, you can
steer and brake at the same time. In
many emergencies, steering can help
you more than even the very best
braking.
