some inside the vehicle), many fluids, and some
component wear by-products contain and/or emit these
chemicals.

Doing Your Own Service Work

If this vehicle is a Two-mode Hybrid, see the Two-mode
Hybrid manual for more information.
CAUTION:
{
You can be injured and the vehicle could be
damaged if you try to do service work on a vehicle
without knowing enough about it.
•
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement parts,
and tools before attempting any vehicle
maintenance task.
•
Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts, and
other fasteners. English and metric fasteners
can be easily confused. If the wrong fasteners
are used, parts can later break or fall off.
You could be hurt.
If doing some of your own service work, use the proper
service manual. It tells you much more about how to
service the vehicle than this manual can. To order
the proper service manual, see Service Publications
Ordering Information on page 7-15.
