Index
To quickly locate information about
the vehicle use the Index in the
back of the manual. It is an
alphabetical list of what is in the
manual and the page number where
it can be found.
Cautions and Notices
There are a number of safety
cautions in this book. A box with the
word CAUTION is used to tell
about things that could cause injury
if the warning is ignored.
{ CAUTION
These mean there is something
that could hurt you or other
people.
Cautions tell what the hazard is and
what to do to avoid or reduce the
hazard. Read these cautions.
A circle with a slash through it is a
safety symbol which means “Do Not,”
“Do Not do this” or “Do Not let this
happen.”
Notices are also used in this
manual.
Notice: These mean there is
something that could damage
your vehicle.
A notice tells about something that
can damage the vehicle. Many
times, this damage would not be
covered by the vehicle’s warranty,
and it could be costly. The notice
tells what to do to help avoid
the damage.
There are also warning labels on
the vehicle which use the same
words, CAUTION or NOTICE.
Other manuals may use CAUTION
and NOTICE warnings in different
colors or in different words.
Vehicle Symbols
The vehicle has components and
labels that use symbols instead
of text. Symbols are shown along
with the text describing the operation
or information relating to a specific
component, control, message,
gage, or indicator.
