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 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. To order the
proper service manual, see Service
Publications Ordering Information
on page 13‑18
.

This vehicle has an airbag system.
Before attempting to do your own
service work, see Servicing the
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on
page 3‑26
.

Keep a record with all parts receipts
and list the mileage and the date
of any service work performed.
See Maintenance Records on
page 11‑15
.

Hood

To open the hood:

1. Pull the hood release lever

with this symbol on it. It is
located inside the vehicle below
the instrument panel on the
driver side.

2. Go to the side of the vehicle and

pull up on the rear edge of the
hood, near the windshield.

Before closing the hood, be sure
all the filler caps are on properly.
Then, just pull the hood down and
close it firmly.
