PARKING THE VEHICLE
1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface. When parking inside a garage or other
structure, be sure that the structure is well ventilated and that the vehicle is
not close to any source of flame or sparks, including any appliance with pilot
lights.
2. Place the transmission in PARK.
3. Turn the engine off.
4. Engage the parking brake (if equipped).
5. Slowly release the brake pedal and make sure the transmission is in PARK
before exiting the vehicle.
6. Remove the ignition key to prevent unauthorized use.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the vehicle is used year-round, check the oil level frequently. A rising oil level
could indicate the accumulation of contaminates such as water or excess fuel in
the bottom of the crankcase. Water in the bottom of the crankcase can lead to
engine damage and must be drained. Water accumulation increases as outside
temperature decreases.
See your dealer for engine heater kits, which provide quicker warm-ups and
easier starting in colder weather.
