Coolant" or similar high quality eth-
ylene glycol based non–silicate,
non–amine, non–nitrite, and non–bo-
rate coolant with long–life hybrid
organic acid technology to fill the
radiator. And if you spill some of
the coolant, be sure to wash it off
with water to prevent it from dam-
aging the parts or paint.
z Do not allow dirt or anything else
to fall through the spark plug holes.
z Do not pry the outer electrode of a
spark plug against the center elec-
trode.
z Use only spark plugs of the speci-
fied type. Using other types will
cause engine damage, loss of per-
formance or radio noise.
z Do not reuse iridium–tipped spark
plugs by cleaning or regapping.
z Do not drive with the air cleaner
filter removed, or excessive engine
wear could result. Also backfiring
could cause a fire in the engine
compartment.
z Be careful not to scratch the glass
surface with the wiper frame.
z When closing the engine hood or
trunk, check to see that you have
not forgotten any tools, rags, etc.
