the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accu-
racy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the
level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
²Check the windshield washer solvent, add as required.
Once a Month
²
Check the tire pressure and look for unusual wear or
damage.
²Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals
