Use the

Engine

Coolant Heater

Turn off the engine.

Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord. On

vehicles

with

2.2L

engine, the electrical cord is

located near the engine oil dipstick.

vehicles

with a

2.4L

engine, the electrical cord is located in

front of the engine coolant surge tank on the

passenger’s side.

Plug it into a normal, grounded

10-volt AC outlet.

Pluggmg me cord into an ungrounded outlet

could cause an electrical shock. Also, the wrong

kind

of extension cord could overheat and cause

a fire. You could be seriously injured. Plug the

cord into a properly grounded three-prong

110-volt AC outlet. If the cord won’t reach, use a

heavy-duty three-prong extension cord rated for

at least

amps.

Before starting the engine, be sure to unplug

and store the cord as it was before to keep it away

from moving engine parts. If you don’t, it could

be damaged.

How

long should you keep the coolant heater plugged

in? The answer depends

the outside temperature, the

kind

oil you have, and some other things. Instead of

trying to list everything here, we ask that you contact

your dealer in the area where you’ll be parking your

vehicle. The dealer can give you

the

best advice for that

particular area.

Automatic Transaxle Operation

Your vehicle may be equipped with a three-speed

automatic or a four-speed automatic transaxle. The shift

lever is located on the console between the seats.

There are six different positions for the shift lever on

the three-speed automatic and seven positions for the

four-speed automatic transaxles. While PARK

(P),

REVERSE

(R)

and NEUTRAL

(N)

operate identically

for both transaxles, the forward gear positions represent

different gearing and operation. See “Forward Gears

(3-Speed)” or “Forward Gears (4-Speed)” later

in this section.
