CAUTION

Operating the engine with the air
cleaner/filter off can cause you or
others to be burned. The air
cleaner not only cleans the air; it
helps to stop flames if the engine
backfires. If it is not there and the
engine backfires, you could be
burned. Do not drive with it off, and
be careful working on the engine
with the air cleaner/filter off.

Notice: If the air cleaner/filter is
off, a backfire can cause a
damaging engine fire. And, dirt
can easily get into the engine,
which will damage it. Always have
the air cleaner/filter in place
when you are driving.

Automatic Transmission
Fluid

It is not necessary to check the
transmission fluid level. A
transmission fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak occurs,
take the vehicle to the dealer/retailer
and have it repaired as soon as
possible.

Change the fluid at the intervals
listed in Additional Required
Services
on page 6-5, and be sure
to use the transmission fluid
listed in Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants
on page 6-11.

Notice: Use of the incorrect
automatic transmission fluid may
damage the vehicle, and the
damages may not be covered by
the vehicle’s warranty. Always
use the automatic transmission
fluid listed in Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants
on
page 6-11
.

The transmission fluid will not reach
the end of the dipstick unless the
transmission is at operating
temperature. If you need to check the
transmission fluid level, please take
the vehicle to your dealer/retailer.
