prior to long distance trips. If necessar\f, ad\bust the
pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the
pressure specified. Check carefull\f for damage, cuts
or excessive wear.
Tire rotation*:
Tires should be rotated ever\f 10,000 km (6,000
miles) . However, the timing for tire rotation ma\f var\f
according to \four driving habits and the road surface
conditions.
Wheel alignment and balance (for Europe):
If the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on
a straight and level road, or if \fou detect uneven or
abnormal tire wear, there ma\f be a need for wheel
alignment.
If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highwa\f
speeds, wheel balancing ma\f be needed.
Windshield:
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the
windshield at least ever\f six months for cracks or other
damage. Have a damaged windshield repaired b\f a
qualified repair facilit\f.
Wiper blades*:

frequent checks of the batter\f fluid level.
Brake and clutch fluid level*:
Make sure that the brake and clutch fluid level is
between the MAX and MIN lines on the reservoir.
Engine coolant level*:
Check the coolant level when the engine is cold.
