Services
Before Driving
Proper care and driving is important
not only for extended service life of
your vehicle, but also for improved
fuel and oil economy. Drive carefully
and defensively. Be sure you know
how to use your truck and its
equipment before operating it.
Starting and Operating
Proper care and operation will not
only extend the service life of your
vehicle but also improve fuel
economy.
Check Around the Vehicle Before
Starting the Engine
Before pulling away, perform a
thorough safety check, making sure
there are no children or obstructions
around the vehicle.
Take off the chocks after confirming
that the parking brake is securely
applied. Sit behind the wheel, adjust
the seat position, and buckle up the
seat belt. The passengers are also

Maintenance and Care
Owner Safety and Routine
Maintenance
Listed below are vehicle checks
which should be made periodically
by either the owner or a qualified
technician to ensure proper
performance and safety of your
vehicle. Take any problems promptly
to a technician for service advice.
For your safety and that of others,
any of the safety-related
components that may have been
damaged in an accident should be
checked and necessary repairs
performed before operating your
vehicle.
At the minimum, these routine
checks should be made every
6 months or 16,000 km
(10,000 miles) for diesel vehicles,
or every 9,600 km (6,000 miles) for
gasoline vehicles, whichever comes
first. Whenever repairs are
necessary, have them completed
before operating the vehicle.A: Parking Brake :
Park on a fairly
steep hill and hold the vehicle with
the parking brake only. This checks
holding ability.
Before checking item (B) below, be
sure to have enough room around
the vehicle. Then firmly apply both
the parking brake see Parking
Brake 0221 and the regular brakes.
Do not use the accelerator pedal.
If the engine starts, be ready to turn
off the engine control switch at
once. Take these precautions
because the vehicle could move
without warning and possibly cause
injury or property damage.
B: Starter Safety Switch : Check
by trying to start the engine in each
gear. The starter should crank only
at selector position "P" or "N".
C: Transmission Shift Indicator :
Check that the indicator points to
the gear chosen.
D: Steering : Be alert for any
changes in steering action. An
inspection or service is needed
when: the steering wheel is harder to turn or has too much free play,
or when there are strange sounds
when turning or parking.
E: Wheel Alignment, Balance, and
Tires :
Check tires for abnormal
wear or damage. Also, check for
damaged wheels. A pull right or left
on a straight and level road may
show the need for a wheel
alignment. A vibration of the
steering wheel or seat at normal
highway speeds may mean a wheel
balancing is needed. Check tire
pressure when the tires are "cold,"
at least monthly, and whenever the
vehicle is serviced.
Check the pressure more often if
daily checks show it's needed.
(Refer to "Recommended Daily
(Pre-operation) Inspections" under
Owner Checks and Services 0367).
Change tire pressure as needed
when changing loads.
F: Brakes : Be alert to illumination
of the brake system warning light or
brake low vacuum warning light
(4500HD, 4500XD models) or the
tone alarm, or changes in braking
action, such as repeated pulling to
