At Each Stop for Fuel
²Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully
warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while
the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accu-

level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
²Check the windshield washer solvent and add if
required.
Once a Month

damage.

master cylinder and transaxle and add as needed.
