Black plate (256,1) Engine Compartment Overview Fuse block Air filter Battery Engine oil-filler cap Main fuse Automatic transaxle fluid-level dipstick (Only for automatic transaxle) Brake/Clutch fluid.
Black plate (257,1) Engine Oil q Recommended Oil Use SAE 5W -20 engine oil. Oil container label s provide imp ortant information. A chief contribution this type of oil makes to fuel economy is reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcom e engine friction.
Black plate (258,1) The quality designatio n SL, or ILSAC must be on the label. 5W-20 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 –20 50 40 30 20 10 0 –10 –20 –30 q Inspecting Engine Oil Level 1. Be sure the vehicle is on a level surface. 2. W arm up the engine to norm al operating temperature.
Black plate (259,1) Changing engine oil W ARNING Checking or Changing Engine Oil: Hot engine oil is dange rous. If the engine has been run ning, the engine oil becomes very hot. Y ou could be seriously burned. Don' t check or change the engine oil when the engine is hot.
Black plate (260,1) Engine Coolant q Inspecting Coolant Level W ARNING Hot Engine: A hot engine is dangerous . If the engine has been running, parts of the engine compartment can becom e very hot. Y ou could be burned. Carefu lly inspect the engine coolant in the coolant reservoir , but do not open it.
Black plate (261,1) q Changing Coolant Change coolant accordi ng to Sc heduled Maintenance (page 8-3). CAUTION l Use only soft (demineralized) wat er in the coolan t mixture. W ater that contains minerals will cut down on the coolant's effectiveness.
Black plate (262,1) T o change coolant W ARNING Removing the Cooling System Cap: Removing the cooling syst em cap while the engine is running or ho t is dangerous. This mig ht lead to cooling system and engine damage and cou ld result in seriou s injury from escapi ng hot coolant or steam.
Black plate (263,1) q Adding Brake/Clutch Fluid W ARNING Spilled Brake Fluid: Spilled brake flui d is dangerous . If it gets in your eyes, they could be seriously injured. If this happens, immediately flush your eyes with water and get medical attention.
Black plate (264,1) Automatic T ransaxle Fluid (A TF) q Inspecting Automatic T ransaxle Fluid Level The automatic trans axle fluid level should be inspected regularly . Measure it as described below . 2.3-liter engine CAUTION l Always check the automati c transaxle fluid level accordi ng to the following procedure.
Black plate (265,1) 9. Shift the shift lever to the park position (P), check the A TF level while the engine is idling, and make sure that the A TF level is within the proper level. If the A TF level is not within the proper level, add A TF . The proper fluid level is marked on the dipstick as follows.
Black plate (266,1) Fluid cold scale B When the engine has not been running and the outside tempe rature is about 20°C (70°F), the fluid level shoul d be close to, but not above, the bott om notch on the dipstick. CAUTION l Use the cold scale only as a reference.
Black plate (267,1) Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid reservoir; add fluid if necessary . T o inspect the washer fluid level in the front reservoir, pull off the cap. Then, holding your thum b over the hole in the center of the cap, lift it straight up.
Black plate (268,1) Air Filter CAUTION Don't drive without an air filter . This could result in excessive engine wear . This air filter may be cleane d with compressed air and reused , or replaced, depending on its condition. Unl ess it is very dirty , simply shake it to remo ve foreign particles.
Black plate (269,1) 5. W ipe insi de the air cleaner housi ng with a damp cloth. 6. Clean or replace the filter . 7. Install in the revers e order of removal.
Black plate (270,1) If the blades are not wiping properly , clean the window and blades with a good cleaner or mil d detergent; then rinse thoroughly with clean water . Repeat if necessary . q Replacing Windshield Wiper Blades When the wipers no longer clean well, the blades are probably wor n or cracked.
Black plate (271,1) CAUTION l Don't bend or discard the stiffeners. Y ou need to use them again. l If the metal stiffeners are switched, the blade's wiping efficiency could be reduced. So don't use the drive r's side metal stiffeners on the passen ger's side, or vice versa.
Black plate (272,1) 3. Remove the metal stiffeners from the blade rubber and install them in new blades. CAUTION Don't bend or discard the stiffeners. Y ou need to use them again. 4. Carefully insert the new blade rubber . Then install the blade assembly in the reverse order of removal.
Black plate (273,1) Battery W ARNING Battery-Related Lea d Materials: Battery posts, terminal s and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reprod uctive harm. W ash hands after handling.
Black plate (274,1) W ARNING Keep Flames A way: Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous . Hydrogen gas, produced during normal batt ery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explod e. An exploding battery can cause seri ous burns and injur ies.
Black plate (275,1) NOTE Remove the battery cover before performing batt ery maintenance. q Battery Maintenance T o get the best service from a battery: l Keep it securely mount ed. l Keep the top clean and dry . l Keep terminals and connections clean, tight, and coated with petroleum jelly or terminal grease.

Black plate (332,1) W ARNING T ire Under -Inflation: Driving your vehicl e with under-inflated tires is dangerous. Under-inflation is the most commo n cause of failures in any kind of tire and may result in severe cracking, tread separa tion or “ blowout ” , wi th unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injur y .
Black plate (333,1) NOTE W arm tires normally exceed recom mended pressures. Don't relea se air from warm tires to adjust the pressure. Under-inflation can cause serious fail ures and accidents. Over-inflation can produce a harsh ride and the greater possibil ity of damage from road hazards.
Black plate (334,1) Tir e Maintenance Improper or inadequate vehicle mai ntenance can cause tires to wear abnormall y . Here are some important mai ntenance points: q Tir e Inflation Pressure Inspect all tire press ure monthly (includin g the spare) when the tires are cold.
