3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 110 - volt AC outlet.
CAUTION:
Plugging the 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 15 amps.
4. 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 on the outside temperature, the
kind of 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 automatic transaxle
has a shift lever located on
the console between
the seats.
Maximum engine speed is limited on automatic
transaxle vehicles, when you’re in PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N), to protect driveline components from
improper operations.
There are several positions for your shift lever.
