Using the engine block heater (if equipped)

Use of an engine block heater is

strongly recommended if you live in

a region where temperatures reach

-23° C (-10° F) or below. For best

results, plug the heater in at least

three hours before starting the

vehicle. The heater can be plugged

in the night before starting the

vehicle. The plug for the block

heater is exposed in the front of the

vehicle, beneath the grille. Vehicles

equipped with a gasoline engine have the plug exposed on the driver

side of the vehicle; vehicles equipped with a Diesel engine have the plug

exposed on the passenger side of the vehicle.

To prevent electrical shock, do not use your heater with

ungrounded electrical systems or two-pronged (cheater)

adapters.

Guarding against exhaust fumes

Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust fumes. Take precautions to avoid

its dangerous effects.

If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer

inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell

exhaust fumes.

Important ventilating information

If the engine is idling while the vehicle is stopped for a long period of

time, open the windows at least 2.5 cm (one inch) or adjust the heating

or air conditioning to bring in fresh air.

BRAKES

Occasional brake noise is normal. If a metal-to-metal, continuous grinding

or continuous squeal sound is present, the brake linings may be worn-out

and should be inspected by a qualified service technician. If the vehicle

has continuous vibration or shudder in the steering wheel while braking,

the vehicle should be inspected by a qualified service technician.
