CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The headlight wiring
is
protected by a circuit breaker
in
the light switch.
An electrical overload will cause the
lights
to go on and off, or
in
some
cases to remain off.
If
this happens, have your headlight wiring checked
right away.

IMPORTANT FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
FUEL ECONOMY AND HOW TO IMPROVE IT
How you drive, where you drive, and when you drive all affect how many
miles/kilometres you can get from a gallon/litre
of
fuel.
The
careful
attention you give your
car
as far as maintenance and repairs
are
concerned will also help fuel economy.
Fuel Selection
Use only unleaded gasoline meeting Federal Government regulations.
The Federal Government specifies the minimum octane number
of
unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline must be used for proper emission
control system operation.
It
will also minimize spark plug fouling and
extend engine oil life.
The
use
of
leaded gasoline can
damage
the
emission control system, and could result in loss
of
emission warranty
coverage.
"Jackrabbit" Starts
Fuel can be saved (and engine and tire life prolonged) by avoiding fast
starts away from lights and stop signs.
