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

damage.
•Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals
as required.

master cylinder, and add as needed.

operation.
•Check rubber seals on each side of the radiator for
proper fit.
