Ride comfort and vehicle stability The superior riding experience built into your vehicle partly depends on the correct tire pres-sure. Too much pressure gives an uncomfortable and jarring ride. Too little pressure feels as if yourvehicle is slow to respond. Unequal tire pressures can make steering your vehicle uneven andunpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle under normal driving conditions is listed on the placard attached to the driver’s door sill.(Refer to “Tire and loading informa- tion placard” on page 11-3.)
The recommended inflation pres- sures under normal driving condi- tions should be used for the tires listed below. Tire pressures should be checked, and adjusted if necessary, at least once a month.Pressures should be checked more often whenever weather temperatures change severely, because tire pres-sures change with outdoor tempera- tures. The pressures listed are always “cold inflation pressure”.
Cold inflation pressure is measured after the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after havingbeen parked for three hours. Cold inflation pres
sure must not go
above the maximum values moldedinto the tire sidewall. After driving several miles, your tire inflation pres- sure may increase 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41kPa) from the cold inflation pressure. Do not let air out of the tires to get back to the specified cold pressure,or your tires will be too low. Check your tires each time you refuel. If one tire looks lower thanthe others, check the pressure for all of them. You should also take the followingsafety precautions:Keep your tires inflated to the rec-ommended pressures. (See the tireand loading information placard attached to the driver’s door sill.)Stay within the recommended load limits.

Brake hoses and tubing should be checked for:  Severe surface cracki
ng, scuffing or worn
spots. If the fabric casing of the hose isshowing through any cracks or worn spots in the rubber hose cover, the hose should be replaced. The brakes can fail if thehose wears through.  Improper installation

or wheel, tire or
chassis interference.

The best way to keep carbon monoxide gas from entering inside your
vehicle is to have
the engine exhaust syst
em properly serviced.
Have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust system
and nearby body areas
for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispo- sitioned parts if you no
tice any of the follow-
ing:  A change in the sound of the exhaust sys- tem  The smell of exhaust fumes inside the vehicle
 The underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged
Also check the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for l
ubrication, oil changes,
or required service. A
ny open seams or loose
connections could le
t dangerous exhaust
fumes seep into the luggage and passenger compartments.  Check for holes or exhaust gas leaks caused by corrosion or damage.  Check the joints and connections for looseness or exhaust gas leaks. Check the rubber hangers and brackets for damage.
N00942500127
The hood lock release mechanism and hood safety catch should be
checked, cleaned, and
oiled when needed for easy movement and to prevent rust and wear. Use Multipurpose Grease NLGI Grade 2 sp

Work the grease into the hood lock mecha-
