brake fluid, and windshield-washer fluid
as frequently as possible, or at least whenever
you refuel.

● Visually inspect tires for their appearance
and condition. Also check tires for proper
inflation.

● Position seat and adjust head restraints.
● Adjust inside and outside mirrors.
● Fasten seat belts and ask all passengers to
do likewise.
● Check the operation of warning lights when
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
