At Least Twice a Year Automatic Transaxle Check
Restraint System Check
Make sure the safety belt reminder light and all your
belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors and anchorages are
working properly. If your vehicle has a built-in child
restraint, also periodically make sure the harness straps,
latch plates, buckle, clip, child head restraint and
anchorages are working properly. Look for any other
loose or damaged safety belt and built-in child restraint
system parts. If you see anything that might keep a
safety belt or built-in child restraint system from doing
its
job, have it repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety
belts or harness straps 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.)
Wiper Blade Check
Inspect wiper blades for wear or cracking. Replace blade
inserts that appear worn or damaged or that streak or
miss areas
of the windshield. Also see “Wiper Blades,
Cleaning”
in the Index. Check the transaxle fluid level; add
if needed. See
“Automatic Transaxle”
in the Index. A fluid loss may
indicate a problem. Check the system and repair if needed.
At Least Once a Year

corrosive environment.
