While operating your vehicle:
G030101AUN
When you stop for fuel:
• Note any changes in the sound of the
exhaust or any smell of exhaust fumes
in the vehicle.
•
•
Check the engine oil level.
Check coolant level in coolant reser-
voir.
•
Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice any increased steering
effort or looseness in the steering
wheel, or change in its straight-ahead
position.
•
Check the windshield washer fluid
level.
Any
adverse conditions should be
brought to the attention of your dealer as
soon as possible.
• Look for low or under-inflated tires.
These Owner Maintenance Checks are
generally not covered by warranties and
you may be charged for labor, parts and
lubricants used.
• Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or “pulls” to one side when trav-
eling on smooth, level road.
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level when the
engine is hot. Scalding hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure. This could cause burns
or other serious injury.
•
When stopping, listen and check for
unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
•
•
If any slipping or changes in the oper-
ation of your transaxle occurs, check
the transaxle fluid level.
Check automatic transaxle P (Park)
function.
•
•
Check parking brake.
Check for fluid leaks under your vehicle
(water dripping from the air condition-
ing system during or after use is nor-
mal).
