window washer fluid.

CAUTION

. Do not substitute engine anti-freeze

coolant for window washer solution.
This may result in damage to the
paint.

. Do not fill the window washer

reservoir tank with washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based washer fluid
concentrates may permanently stain
the grille if spilled while filling the
window washer reservoir tank.

. Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates

with water to the manufacturer’s
recommended levels before pouring
the fluid into the window washer
reservoir tank. Do not use the
window washer reservoir tank to
mix the washer fluid concentrate
and water.

. Keep the battery surface clean and dry.

Clean the battery with a solution of baking
soda and water.

. Make certain the terminal connections are

clean and securely tightened.

. If the vehicle is not to be used for 30 days or

longer, disconnect the negative

7 battery

terminal cable to prevent discharging it.

WARNING

. Do not expose the battery to flames

or electrical sparks. Hydrogen gas
generated by the battery is explo-
sive. Do not allow battery fluid to
contact your skin, eyes, fabrics or
painted surfaces. After touching a
battery or battery cap, do not touch
or rub your eyes. Thoroughly wash
your hands. If the acid contacts your
eyes, skin or clothing, immediately
flush with water for at least 15
minutes and seek medical attention.

. Do not operate the vehicle if the

fluid in the battery is low. Low
battery fluid can cause a higher load
on the battery which can generate
heat, reduce battery life, and in
some cases lead to an explosion.
