damage to the power transfer unit. Tire rotation
schedule should be followed to balance tire wear.
STORING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle should remain stationary for more than a
month, observe the following precautions:
•Park your vehicle in a covered, dry and possibly airy
location the windows open slightly;
• Check that the Electric Park Brake is not engaged.
• Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from the battery
post and be sure that the battery is fully charged.
During storage check battery charge quarterly.
• If you do not disconnect the battery from the electrical
system, check the battery charge every thirty days.
Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Tire Rotation

•Clean and protect the painted parts by applying pro-
tective waxes.
• Clean and protect polished metal parts by applying
protective waxes.
• Apply talcum powder to the front and rear wiper
blades and leave raised from the glass.
• Cover the vehicle with an appropriate cover taking
care not to damage the painted surface by dragging
across dirty surfaces. Do not use plastic sheeting which
will not allow the evaporation of moisture present on
the surface of the vehicle.
• Inflate the tires at a pressure of +7.25 psi (+0.5 bar) is
higher than recommended on the tire placard and
check it periodically.
• Do not drain the engine cooling system. •
Whenever you leave the vehicle is stationary for two
weeks or more, run the at engine idling and for
approximately five minutes, with the air conditioning
system on and high fan speed. This will ensure a
proper lubrication of the system, thus minimizing the
possibility of damage to the compressor when the
vehicle is put back into operation.
CAUTION!
Before removal of the positive and negative termi-
nals to the battery, wait at least a minute with
ignition switch in the OFF position and close the
drivers door. When reconnecting the positive and
negative terminals to the battery be sure the ignition
switch is in the OFF position and the drivers door is
closed.
