(e)Make sure the safety belt reminder light and safety
belt assemblies are working properly. Look for any other
loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If you see
anything that might keep a safety belt system from doing
its job, have it repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety
belts replaced. Also see Checking the Restraint Systems
on page 1-74.
(f)Lubricate all key lock cylinders. Lubricate all
hinges and latches, including those for the hood, rear
compartment, glove box door, and console door. More
frequent lubrication may be required when exposed to
a corrosive environment. Applying silicone grease on
weatherstrips with a clean cloth will make them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak.

may require replacement more often.

vehicle is mainly driven under one or more of these
conditions:

page 5-32 for what to use. Inspect hoses. Clean
radiator, condenser, pressure cap, and filler neck.

(k)A fluid loss in any vehicle system could indicate a
problem. Have the system inspected and repaired
