Inspect and replace the air conditioning filter according to the maintenance
schedule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy traffic flow, replacement may
be required. (For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the
“Scheduled Maintenance Guide” or “Owner’s Manual Supplement”.)
■ If air flow from the vents decreases dramatically
The filter may be clogged. Check the filter and replace if necessary.
Remove the filter cover.
■ Replacement method

Oil viscosity
●The 5W portion of the oil viscosity rating indicates the characteristic
of the oil which allows cold startabi lity. Oils with a lower value before
the W allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
● The 30 in 5W-30 indicates the oil visc osity when the oil is at its oper-
ating temperature. An oil with a hi gher viscosity may be better suited
if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load con-
ditions.

Warning: The temperature grades for this tire are established for a
tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either sepa-
rately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire fail-
ure.
