BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
CAUTION: 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 COMPUTER
RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL INFORMATION
section.
All models use a 520 A/100 Min. battery.
BATTERY WARNING
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction
could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to
converter and vehicle.
ENGINE OIL
CAUTION: Never use non-detergent or straight mineral oil.
HALOGEN BULBS
WARNING: Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas which may explode if
overheated. DO NOT touch glass portion of bulb with bare
hands. Eye protection should be worn when handling or working
around halogen bulbs.
RADIATOR CAP
CAUTION: Always disconnect the fan motor when working near the
radiator fan. The fan is temperature controlled and could
start at any time even when the ignition key is in the OFF
position. DO NOT loosen or remove radiator cap when cooling
system is hot.
RADIATOR FAN
WARNING: Keep hands away from radiator fan. Fan is controlled by a
thermostatic switch which may come on or run for up to
15 minutes even after engine is turned off.
TURBOCHARGED MODELS
CAUTION: Do not race engine immediately after starting. When
stopping engine, allow engine to idle for approximately 60
seconds before shutting it off. Failure to do so may cause
turbocharger damage due to lack of oil flowing to
the turbocharger bearings.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
CAUTION: Due to the different warranties offered in various regions
and the variety of after-market extended warranties
available, please refer to the warranty package that came
with the vehicle to verify all warranty options.
