Footnotes

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to
the completion of the vehicle's useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the
maintenance be recorded.# Lubricate the parking brake lever and cable,
suspension system and propeller shafts and steering
wheel linkage.
+ A good time to check your brakes is during tire
rotation. See ªBrake System Inspectionº under
