CAUTION
Install the battery securely in position. If it is left
loose, shocks and vibrations from road surface
could damage the battery case and electrode
plates, shortening battery life.

tioner filters) with water or compressed air to elimi-
nate dust and dirt at regular intervals (6 months or
so).
Clogged filters may cause inefficient heating or air-
conditioning, and even malfunction of the blower
motor.
CAUTION
Clean the air filters at shorter intervals if your
vehicle is used frequently in dusty areas.
