should be used. Use higher concentrations (not to exceed 70%) if temperatures below -37°F (-38°C) are anticipated. Use only high purity water such as distilled or deionized water when mixing the water/antifreeze solution. The use of lower quality water will reduce the amount of corrosion protection in the engine cooling system. Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility to main- tain the proper level of protection against freezing ac- cording to the temperatures occurring in the area where the vehicle is operated. NOTE: Mixing coolant types will decrease the life of the engine coolant and will require more frequent engine coolant changes.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 305
Cooling System Pressure Cap The cap must be fully tightened to prevent loss of coolant, and to insure that coolant will return to the radiator from the coolant bottle. The cap should be inspected and cleaned if there is any accumulation of foreign material on the sealing surfaces.
WARNING!
The warning words DO NOT OPEN HOT on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety precaution. Never add coolant when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an over- heated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system. To prevent scalding or injury, do not remove the pressure cap while the system is hot or under pressure.
306 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
Coolant Level The coolant recovery bottle provides a quick visual method for determining that the coolant level is ad- equate. The coolant level must be at or above the COLD FULL level on the bottle. The radiator normally remains completely full, so there is no need to remove the radiator cap unless checking for coolant freeze point or replacing coolant. Advise your service attendant of this. As long as the engine operating temperature is satisfactory, the coolant bottle need only be checked once a month. When additional coolant is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant recovery bottle. Do not overfill.
Points To Remember NOTE: When the vehicle is stopped after a few miles of operation, you may observe vapor coming from the front of the engine compartment. This is normally a result of
moisture from rain, snow, or high humidity accumulat- ing on the radiator and being vaporized when the thermostat opens, allowing hot water to enter the radia- tor. If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven. The vapor will soon dissipate. † Do not overfill the coolant bottle. † Check coolant freeze point in the system. † If frequent coolant additions are required, or if the level in the recovery bottle does not drop when the engine cools, the cooling system should be pressure tested for leaks. † Maintain coolant concentration to 50% ethylene glycol antifreeze (minimum) in water for proper corrosion protection of your engine that contains aluminum components.

are not kinked or obstructed.
† Make sure that the radiator and coolant bottle hoses † Do not change the thermostat for summer or winter operation. If replacement is ever necessary, install ONLY the correct type thermostat. Other designs may result in unsatisfactory cooling performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
Hoses and Vacuum/Vapor Harnesses Inspect surfaces of hoses and nylon tubing for evidence of heat and mechanical damage. Hard or soft spots, brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasions, and exces- sive swelling indicate deterioration of the rubber. Pay particular attention to the hoses nearest to high heat sources such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect hose rout- ing to be sure hoses do not touch any heat source or moving component that may cause heat damage or mechanical wear.
308 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
Insure nylon tubing in these areas has not melted or collapsed. Inspect all hose connections such as clamps and couplings to make sure they are secure and no leaks are present. Components should be replaced immedi- ately if there is any evidence of degradation that could cause failure. Brake System In order to assure brake system performance, all brake system components should be inspected periodically. Refer to the appropriate “Maintenance Schedule” in Section 8 for suggested service intervals.
WARNING!
Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly an accident. Driving with your foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can result in abnormally high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear, and possible brake damage. You wouldn’t have your full braking capacity in an emergency.
Brake and Power Steering System Hoses When servicing the vehicle for scheduled maintenance, inspect surface of hoses for evidence of heat and me- chanical damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abrasion, and excessive swelling suggest deteriora- tion of the rubber. Particular attention should be made to examining those hose surfaces nearest to high heat sources, such as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect all hose clamps and couplings to make sure they are secure and no leaks are present. NOTE: Often fluids such as oil, power steering fluid, and brake fluid are used during assembly plant opera- tions to ease the assembly of hoses to couplings. There- fore, oil wetness at the hose-coupling area is not neces- sarily an indication of leakage. Actual dripping of hot fluid when systems are under pressure (during vehicle operation) should be noted before hose is replaced based on leakage.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 309
Inspection of brake hoses should be done when- NOTE: ever the brake system is serviced and every engine oil change.
WARNING!
Worn brake hoses can burst and cause brake failure. You could have an accident. If you see any signs of cracking, scuffing, or worn spots, have the brake hoses replaced immediately.
310 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
Brake Master Cylinder The fluid level in the master cylinder should be checked when performing under hood services, or immediately if the “Brake Warning Light” shows system failure.
Be sure to clean the top of the master cylinder area before removing the cap. If necessary, add fluid to bring the fluid level up to the requirements described on the brake fluid reservoir. With disc brakes, fluid level can be expected to fall as the brake pads wear. However, low fluid level may be caused by a leak and a checkup may be needed. Use only manufacturer’s recommended brake fluid, refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.
WARNING!
Use of a brake fluid that may have a lower initial boiling point or unidentified as to specification, may result in sudden brake failure during hard pro- longed braking. You could have an accident.
WARNING!
CAUTION!
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 311
Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts and the brake fluid catching fire.
Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed container to avoid contamination from foreign matter. Do not allow petroleum base fluid to contaminate the brake fluid as seal damage will result. Automatic Transmission Selection of Lubricant It is important that the proper lubricant is used in the transmission to assure optimum transmission perfor- mance. Use only manufacturer’s recommended transmis- sion fluid, refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type. It is important that the transmission fluid be maintained at the prescribed level using the recommended fluid.
Using a transmission fluid other than the manufac- turer’s recommended fluid may cause deterioration in transmission shift quality and/or torque converter shudder. Using a transmission fluid other than the manufacturer’s recommended fluid will result in more frequent fluid and filter changes. Refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.
Fluid Level Check – 3.7L 42RLE This fluid level should be checked when the engine is fully warmed up and the fluid in the transmission is heated to its normal operating temperature. Operation of the transmission with an improper fluid level will greatly reduce the life of the transmission and of the fluid.
312 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
To check the automatic transmission fluid level properly, the following procedure must be used: 1. The vehicle must be on level ground. 2. The engine should be running at curb idle speed for a minimum of 60 seconds. 3. Fully apply parking brake. 4. Apply the brakes and shift the transmission into P (Park). 5. The fluid MUST be checked with the transmission in P (Park) to be sure that the fluid level is accurate. 6. Wipe the dipstick clean and reinsert until seated. Remove dipstick and note reading. At normal operating temperature (approximately 180° F (82° C), the fluid level is correct if it is in the HOT region
(cross-hatched area) on the oil level indicator. The fluid level indicator should be in the COLD region at 70° F (21° C) fluid temperature. If the fluid level is low, add sufficient fluid to bring to the proper level. Refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type. Fluid is added through the dipstick tube. NOTE: To prevent dirt and water from entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is properly reseated. Special Additives The manufacturer recommends against the addition of any additives to the transmission. Exception to this policy is the use of special dyes to aid in detecting fluid leaks.
Hydraulic Clutch Fluid — Manual Transmission The clutch hydraulic system is a sealed maintenance free system. In the event of leakage or other malfunction, the system must be replaced. Manual Transmission
Selection of Lubricant Use only manufacturer’s recommended manual trans- mission fluid, refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type. Fluid Level Check Check the fluid level by removing the fill plug. The fluid level should be between the bottom of the fill hole and a point not more than 3/16” (4.76 mm) below the bottom of the hole. Add fluid, if necessary, to maintain the proper level.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 313
Frequency of Fluid Change Under normal operating conditions, the fluid installed at the factory will give satisfactory lubrication for the life of the vehicle. Fluid changes are not necessary unless the lubricant has become contaminated with water. If con- taminated with water, the fluid should be changed im- mediately. Transfer Case
Fluid Level Check Inspect the transfer case for fluid leaks. If a fluid leak is evident, the transfer case fluid level can be checked by removing the fill plug (B) located at the back of the transfer case.
314 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
The fluid level should be to the bottom edge of the fill hole (A) when the vehicle is in a level position.
Adding Fluid Only at filler hole until fluid runs out of the hole, when the vehicle is in a level position.
Drain First remove fill plug (B), then drain plug (C). Recom- mended tightening torque for drain and fill plugs is 15–25 ft.lbs. (20–34 N·m).
CAUTION!
When installing plugs, do not overtighten. You could damage them and cause them to leak.
Selection of Lubricant Use only manufacturer’s recommended fluid, refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.
Front/Rear Axle Fluid The front axle has a threaded “fill plug” on the cover plate, and a threaded “drain plug” on the bottom side of the carrier. Fluid Level Check Lubricant should be 1/29 (1 cm) below the oil fill hole. Adding Fluid Add lubricant only at the fill hole and only to the level specified above. Selection of Lubricant Use only manufacturer’s recommended fluid, refer to Recommended Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.

Appearance Care And Protection From Corrosion
Protection Of Body And Paint From Corrosion Vehicle body care requirements vary according to geo- graphic locations and usage. Chemicals that make roads passable in snow and ice, and those that are sprayed on trees and road surfaces during other seasons, are highly corrosive to the metal in your vehicle. Outside parking, which exposes your vehicle to airborne contaminants, road surfaces on which the vehicle is operated, extreme hot or cold weather and other extreme conditions will have an adverse effect on paint, metal trim, and under- body protection. The following maintenance recommendations will enable you to obtain maximum benefit from the corrosion resistance built into your vehicle. What Causes Corrosion? Corrosion is the result of deterioration or removal of paint and protective coatings from your vehicle.
316 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
The most common causes are: † Road salt, dirt and moisture accumulation. † Stone and gravel impact. † Insects, tree sap and tar. † Salt in the air near sea-coast localities. † Atmospheric fallout/industrial pollutants. Washing † Wash your vehicle regularly. Always wash your ve- hicle in the shade using a mild car wash soap and rinse the panels completely with clear water. † If insects, tar, or other similar deposits have accumu- † Use Mopart Auto Polish to remove road film and stains and to polish your vehicle. Take care never to scratch the paint.
lated on your vehicle, wash it as soon as possible.
† Avoid using abrasive compounds and power buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin out the paint finish.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning materials such as steel wool or scouring powder, which will scratch metal and painted surfaces.
Special Care † If you drive on salted or dusty roads or if you drive near the ocean, hose off the undercarriage at least once a month. † It is important that the drain holes in the lower edges of the doors, rocker panels and tailgate must be kept clear and open.
† If you detect any stone chips or scratches in the paint, touch them up immediately. The cost of such repairs is considered the responsibility of the owner. † If your vehicle is damaged due to an accident or similar cause which destroys the paint and protective coating have your vehicle repaired as soon as possible. The cost of such repairs is considered the responsibil- ity of the owner. † All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome plated wheels should be cleaned regularly with mild soap and water to prevent corrosion. To remove heavy soil, select a non-abrasive, non-acidic cleaner. Do not use scouring pads, steel wool, a bristle brush, or metal polishes. Only Mopart Cleaners are recommended. Do not use oven cleaner. Avoid auto- matic car washes that use acidic solutions or harsh brushes that may damage the wheel’s protective fin- ish.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 317
† If you carry special cargo such as chemicals, fertilizers, de-icer salt, etc., be sure that such materials are well packaged and sealed. † If a lot of driving is done on gravel roads, consider † Use Mopart Touch Up Paint on scratches or chips as soon as possible. Your authorized dealer has touch up paint to match the color of your vehicle.
mud or stone shields behind each wheel.
Interior Care Use Mopart Fabric Cleaner to clean fabric upholstery and carpeting. Use Mopart Vinyl Cleaner to clean vinyl or leather upholstery. Mopart Vinyl Cleaner is specifically recommended for interior vinyl trim.
318 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
Leather Seat Care & Cleaning Leather is best preserved by regular cleaning with a damp soft cloth. Small particles of dirt can act as an abrasive and damage the leather surface and should be removed promptly with a damp cloth. Stubborn soils can be removed easily with a soft cloth and Mopart Total Clean. Care should be taken to avoid soaking the leather with any liquid. Please do not use polishes, oils, cleaning fluids, solvents, detergents, or ammonia based cleaners to clean the leather. Application of a leather conditioner is not required to maintain the original condition.
WARNING!
Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning purposes. Many are potentially flammable, and if used in closed areas they may cause respiratory harm.
Glass Surfaces All glass surfaces should be cleaned on a regular basis with any commercial household-type glass cleaner. Never use an abrasive type cleaner. Use caution when cleaning inside rear windows equipped with electric defrosters. Do not use scrapers or other sharp instru- ments which may scratch the elements. When cleaning the rear view mirror, spray cleaner on the towel or rag that you are using. Do not spray cleaner directly on the mirror. Carpet Vacuum your carpet regularly to prevent a soil build-up. Shampoo soiled carpet with a reliable upholstery cleaner, using a natural sponge or soft bristle brush. After carpet dries, vacuum it thoroughly.
Seat Belt Maintenance Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the fabric. Sun damage will also weaken the fabric. If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Do not remove the belts from the vehicle to wash them. Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the buckles do not work properly. Maintenance After Off-Pavement Driving After extended operation in mud, sand or water, or similar dirty conditions, have your brake drums, brake linings, and axle joints inspected and cleaned as soon as possible. This will prevent any abrasive material from causing excessive wear or unpredictable braking action. Following off-pavement usage, completely inspect the underbody of your vehicle. Check tires, body structure,
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 319
steering, suspension and exhaust system for damage. Check threaded fasteners for looseness, particularly on the chassis, drivetrain components, steering and suspen- sion. Retighten, if required, to torque values specified in the Service Manual. Also check for accumulations of vegetation or brush that could become a fire hazard, or conceal damage to fuel lines, brake hoses, axle pinion seals, and propeller shafts.
CAUTION!
Under frequent heavy-duty driving conditions, change all lubricants and lubricate body compo- nents, all driveline joints and steering linkage more often than in normal service to prevent excessive wear.

SUGGESTIONS FOR OBTAINING SERVICE FOR YOUR VEHICLE
Prepare For The Appointment If you’re having warranty work done, be sure to have the right papers with you. Take your warranty folder. All work to be performed may not be covered by the warranty, discuss additional charges with the service manager. Keep a maintenance log of your vehicle’s service history. This can often provide a clue to the current problem. Prepare A List Make a written list of your vehicle’s problems or the specific work you want done. If you’ve had an accident, or work done that is not on your maintenance log, let the service advisor know.
Be Reasonable With Requests If you list a number of items, and you must have your vehicle by the end of the day, discuss the situation with the service advisor and list the items in order of priority. At many dealers you may obtain a rental vehicle at a minimal daily charge. If you need a rental, it is advisable to make these arrangements when you call for an ap- pointment.
IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE The manufacturer and its dealers are vitally interested in your satisfaction. We want you to be happy with our products and services. Your selling dealer is best equipped and most anxious to provide prompt resolution for any warranty issue or related matter that you may experience. The manufactur- er’s dealers have the facilities, factory-trained techni- cians, special tools, and the latest information to assure your vehicle is fixed correctly and in a timely manner.
The manufacturer has empowered its dealers to make warranty and repair decisions that ensure you are not inconvenienced. There is no need for you to wait for a decision from the manufacturer. If a special circumstance occurs that requires information from the manufacturer, we have asked the dealer’s service management to make the contact on your behalf. This is why you should always talk to your dealer’s service manager first. Most matters can be resolved with this process. † If for some reason you are still not satisfied, talk to the general manager or owner of the dealership. They want to know if you need assistance. † If your dealership is unable to resolve the concern, you
may contact the Manufacturer’s Customer Center.

It is not responsible for any service contract other than the manufacturer’s Service Contract. If you purchased a service contract that is not a manufacturer’s Service Contract, and you require service after your manufactur- er’s new vehicle limited warranty expires, please refer to your contract documents, and contact the person listed in those documents. We appreciate that you have made a major investment when you purchased your new vehicle. Your dealer has also made a major investment in facilities, tools, and training to assure that you are absolutely delighted with your ownership experience.
