Part B: Owner Checks and Services
Listed in this part are owner checks and services
which should be performed at the intervals
specified to help ensure the safety, dependability
and emission control performance of your
vehicle.
Be sure any necessary repairs are completed at
once. Whenever any fluids or lubricants are added
to your vehicle, make sure they are the proper
ones, as shown in Part D.
At Each Fuel Fill
It is important for you or a service station attendant
to perform these underhood checks at each fuel fill.
Engine Oil Level Check
Check the engine oil level and add the proper oil
if necessary. SeeEngine Oil on page 260for
further details.
Engine Coolant Level Check
Check the engine coolant level and add the proper
coolant mixture if necessary. SeeEngine Coolant
on page 268for further details.
Windshield Washer Fluid Level Check
Check the windshield washer fluid level in the
windshield washer fluid reservoir and add
the proper fluid if necessary. SeeWindshield
Washer Fluid on page 280for further details.
At Least Once a Month
Tire Ination Check
Visually inspect the tires and make sure the tires
are inflated to the correct pressures. Do not
forget to check the spare tire. SeeInflation - Tire
Pressure on page 311.
374

Starter Switch Check
{CAUTION:
When you are doing this inspection, the
vehicle could move suddenly. If the vehicle
moves, you or others could be injured.
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough
room around the vehicle.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake and the
regular brake. SeeParking Brake on page 116
if necessary.
Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be
ready to turn off the engine immediately
if it starts.3. On automatic transaxle vehicles, try to start
the engine in each gear. The starter should
work only in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
If the starter works in any other position, your
vehicle needs service.
On manual transaxle vehicles, put the shift
lever in NEUTRAL, push the clutch pedal
down halfway and try to start the engine.
The starter should work only when the clutch
pedal is pushed down all the way to the
floor. If the starter works when the clutch pedal
is not pushed all the way down, your vehicle
needs service.
