the vehicle and others sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that responsibility.
The following should be checked regularly: *
1 Washer fluid reservoir should be filled with water and solvent (wintertime: windshield washer anti-freeze). See
page 93.
2 Power steering - When cold, the level must not be above the COLD mark and when hot it must not be above the
HOT mark. Top up if the level drops to the ADD mark with ATF fluid. See page 138.
3 Coolant level should be between the expansion tank marks. Mixture: 50% anti-freeze and 50% water. See page 132.

1.6 US qts (1.5 liters). See page 136.
