Vehicle Care

Warning
Batteries have acid that can burn you and
gas that can explode. You can be hurt
badly if you are not careful.
Follow instructions carefully when
working around a battery.
Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds which can cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling.
Vehicle Storage
If the vehicle battery must be disconnected,
unlock the vehicle using the RKE transmitter
to disarm the power sounder and disconnect
the battery within 15 seconds.
Infrequent Usage: Remove the black,
negative (-) cable from the battery to keep
the battery from running down.
Extended Storage: Remove the black,
negative (-) cable from the battery or use a
battery trickle charger.
All-Wheel Drive
Transfer Case
Under normal driving conditions, transfer
case fluid does not require maintenance
unless there is a fluid leak or unusual noise.
If required, have the transfer case serviced
by your dealer.
Park Brake and P (Park)
Mechanism Check
{
Warning
When you are doing this check, the
vehicle could begin to move. You or
others could be injured and property
could be damaged. Make sure there is
room in front of the vehicle in case it
begins to roll. Be ready to apply the
regular brake at once should the vehicle
begin to move.
Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle
facing downhill. Keeping your foot on the
regular brake, apply the parking brake.
.
To check the parking brake's holding
ability: With the engine running and the
transmission in N (Neutral), slowly
remove foot pressure from the regular
brake pedal. Do this until the vehicle is
held by the parking brake only.
.
To check the P (Park) mechanism's
holding ability: With the engine running,
shift to P (Park). Then release the parking
brake followed by the regular brake.
Contact your dealer if service is required.
Wiper Blade Replacement
Windscreen wiper blades should be
inspected for wear or cracking.
It is a good idea to clean or replace the
wiper blade assembly on a regular basis or
when worn. For proper windscreen wiper
blade length and type, see
.
Caution
Allowing the wiper arm to touch the
windscreen when no wiper blade is
installed could damage the windscreen.
Any damage that occurs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Do not
allow the wiper arm to touch the
windscreen.
