CAUTION!
If the "Water In Fuel Indicator Light" remains on, DO
NOT START the engine before you drain water from
the fuel filters to avoid engine damage.
If the "Water In Fuel Indicator Light" comes on and a
single chime is heard while you are driving, or with the
ignition switch in the ON position, there may be a
problem with your water separator wiring or sensor.
See your authorized dealer for service.
Upon proper draining of the water from both fuel filters,
the "Water In Fuel Indicator Light" will remain illumi-
nated for approximately 10 seconds. If the water was
drained while the engine was running, the "Water In Fuel
Indicator Light" may remain on for approximately three
minutes.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 295
NOTE: Care should be taken in disposing of used fluids
from your vehicle. Used fluids, indiscriminately dis-
carded, can present a problem to the environment. Con-
tact an authorized dealer, service station, or government
agency for advice on recycling programs and for where
used fluids and filters can be properly disposed of in
your area.
Drain the fuel/water separator filters when the "Water In
Fuel Indicator Light" is ON. Within 10 minutes of vehicle
shutdown, turn the engine mounted filter drain valve
(located on the side of the filter assembly) counterclock-
wise 1/4 turn, and turn the under body mounted filter
drain valve (located on the bottom of the filter assembly)
counterclock wise 1 full turn. Then turn the ignition
switch to the ON position, and allow any accumulated
water to drain. Leave the drain valve open until all water
and contaminants have been removed. When clean fuel is
visible, close the drain valves by turning them fully
clockwise, and turn the ignition switch to OFF.
