Doing Your Own

Service Work

Warning
It can be dangerous to work on
your vehicle if you do not have the
proper knowledge, service manual,
tools, or parts. Always follow
owner's manual procedures and
consult the service manual for your
vehicle before doing any
service work.
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.
This vehicle has an airbag system.
Before attempting to do your own
service work, see Servicing the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle 0 84.
Keep a record with all parts receipts
and list the mileage and the date of
any service work performed.
Caution
Even small amounts of
contamination can cause damage to
vehicle systems. Do not allow
contaminants to contact the fluids,
reservoir caps, or dipsticks.

Bonnet

To open the bonnet:
1. Pull the bonnet release lever with
this symbol on it. It is on the
lower left side of the instrument
panel.
VEHICLE CARE
2. Go to the front of the vehicle to
find the secondary bonnet
release handle. The handle is
under the front edge of the
bonnet near the centre. Push the
handle to the right and at the
same time raise the bonnet.
To close the bonnet:
Before closing the bonnet, be sure all
filler caps are on properly. Then, bring
the bonnet from full open to within
152 mm (6 in) of the closed position.
Pause, then push the front centre of
the bonnet with a swift, firm motion
to fully close the bonnet.
