In the gray caution area, we tell you what the hazard is. Then we tell you
what to do to help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read these cautions.
If
you don’t, you or others could be hurt.
You
will also find a circle with a slash through it in this book. This safety
symbol means “Don’t,’’ “Don’t do
this,”
or
“Don’t let this happen.”
vi
Vehicle Damage Warnings
Also,
in
this book
you
will
find these notices:
NOTICE:
These mean there is something that could damage your vehicle.
In the notice area, we tell you about something that can damage your
vehicle. Many times, this damage would not be covered by your warranty,
and
it
could be costly. But the notice
will
tell
you what
to
do to help avoid
the damage.
When you read other manuals, you might see CAUTION and NOTICE
warnings
in
different colors or
in
different words.
You’ll also see warning labels
on
your vehicle. They use yellow for
cautions, blue for notices and the words CAUTION or NOTICE.
