At Each Stop for Fuel

• Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully

warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while
the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accu-
racy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the
level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.

• Check the windshield washer solvent, add as required.

Once a Month

• Check the tire pressure and look for unusual wear or

damage.

• Inspect the battery, and clean and tighten the terminals

as required.

• Check the fluid levels of the engine coolant/anti-

freeze reservoir, brake master cylinder, and transmis-
sion, and add as needed.

• Check all lights and all other electrical items for correct

operation.

At Each Oil Change

• Change the engine oil filter.
• Inspect the exhaust system.
• Inspect brake hoses.
• Check the engine coolant/anti-freeze level, hoses, and

clamps.

• Inspect manual transmission fluid level, and for leaks

(if equipped).

• After completion of off-road operation, the underside

of the vehicle should be thoroughly inspected. Exam-
ine threaded fasteners for looseness.
