Spare Tire Check

to tighten the cable. See ªStoring the Spare Tire and
Toolsº in the Index.
Weatherstrip Lubrication
Silicone grease on weatherstrips will make them last

silicone grease with a clean cloth. During very cold,
damp weather more frequent application may be
required. See ªRecommended Fluids and Lubricantsº
in the Index.Automatic Transmission Check
Check the transmission fluid level; add if needed.
