7. Allow the engine to idle for at least one minute.
8. If the engine turns off, step on the accelerator to start the engine.
9. While the engine is running, step on the brake pedal and shift the
transmission to N (Neutral).
10. Allow the engine to run for at least one minute by pressing on the
accelerator pedal.
11. Drive the vehicle at least 10 miles (16 kilometers) to completely
relearn the idle and fuel trim strategy.
Note: If you do not allow the engine to relearn the idle and fuel trim
strategy, the idle quality of your vehicle may be adversely affected until
the engine computer eventually relearns the idle trim and fuel trim
strategy.
CHECKING THE WIPER BLADES
Run the tip of your fingers over the edge of the blade
to check for roughness.
Clean the wiper blades with washer fluid or water
applied with a soft sponge or cloth.
CHANGING THE WIPER BLADES
Note: Use the service position in winter to provide easier access to the
front wiper blades for freeing them from snow and ice. The front wipers
will not return to their normal position as soon as you switch on the
ignition. The front wipers will stay in the service position when you
switch the ignition on or start the engine. Switch on the front wipers to
any mode, then switch off the front wipers to bring the front wipers back
to the park position.
Note: The windshield wiper blades are different in length. If you install
wiper blades of the wrong length, the wipers may not work correctly. If
equipped with autowipers, the rain sensor may not work correctly.
