concentrations of soot in the air from industry and
from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000
miles (24,000 km).
Inspect drive belt

speeds or trailer towing results in higher
transmission temperatures.

conditions, have the transmission fluid changed
every 30,000 miles (48,000 km).
Replace spark plugs

On Canadian models:On the Touring model:The low washer
level indicator comes on when the
level is low (see page ).
You will see a
‘‘WASHER FLUID LOW’’ message
on the multi-information display
when the level is low.
Fill the reservoir with a good-quality
windshield washer f luid. This
increases the cleaning capability and
prevents f reezing in cold weather.
When you ref ill the reservoir, clean
the edges of the windshield wiper
blades with windshield washer f luid
on a clean cloth. This will help to
condition them.
Check the f luid level in the
windshield washer reservoir at least
monthly during normal use. This
reservoir supplies the windshield and
rear window washers.
Check the f luid level by removing
the cap and looking at the level
gauge attached to the cap.

the windshield washer pump. Use only
commercially-available windshield
washer f luid.
