ing:
• Engine oil level
• Engine coolant level
• Brake (and clutch, if equipped) fluid
level
• Washer fluid level

• Tire inflation pressures (cold)
• Coolant level in reservoir (cold

MAINTENANCE
7-7
WARNING
Be careful when checking your
engine coolant level. The engine
compartment will be hot and
you could be burned.
WARNING
- Engine Cooling Fans
Because your engine cooling
fans are electronically con-
trolled, they will run if the igni-
tion switch is ON, even if the
engine is not running.
This
could cause serious injury. To
prevent this, be sure the igni-
tion is OFF, unless you must run
the engine while performing
maintenance or an inspection.
