Restraint System Check
Make sure the safety belt reminder light and all your
belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and anchorages are
working properly. Look for any other loose or damaged
safety belt system parts. If you see anything that might

repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety belts replaced.
Also look for any opened or broken air bag coverings,
and have them repaired or replaced. (The air bag system
does not need regular maintenance.)

working properly. Make sure the horn chirps and
the latch releases. Follow the disabling procedure.
See ªTrunk Release Sensorº in the Index.Weatherstrip Lubrication

more frequent application may be required. See
ªRecommended Fluids and Lubricantsº in the Index.
Automatic Transaxle Check
Check the transaxle fluid level; add if needed.
See ªAutomatic Transaxle Fluidº in the Index. A fluid
