OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
Underbody
The underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those
used on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these sub-
stances, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around
the exhaust system. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly
flushed with plain water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt
can easily accumulate.
—
Fluid leaks
Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle
has been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use
is normal. If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check
for the cause and correct it immediately.

Doors and hood
Check that all doors and the hood operate smoothly as well as the rear door, trunk lid
and hatch. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make
sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is
released. When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lu-
brication frequently.
Lamps
Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps,
tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and other lamps are all operating properly and installed
securely. Also check the aim of the headlamps.
—
Tires
Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips. Adjust
the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified. Check carefully
for damage, cuts or excessive wear.
Tire rotation
In the case that Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) and front & rear tires are same size; Tires
should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). Tires marked with directional indica-
tors can only be rotated between front and rear. Make sure that the directional indica-
tors point in the direction of wheel rotation after the tire rotation is completed.
In the case that Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) and front & rear tires are same size; Tires
should be rotated every 5,000 km (3,000 miles). Tires marked with directional indica-
tors can only be rotated between front and rear. Make sure that the directional indica-
tors point in the direction of wheel rotation after the tire rotation is completed.
In the case that front tires are different size from rear tires; Tires cannot be rotated.
However, the timing for tire rotation may vary according to your driving habits and the
road surface conditions.
Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)
transmitter components
Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap when the tires are
replaced due to wear or age.
Wheel alignment and
balance
If the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road, or if
you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel alignment. If
the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds, wheel balancing may
be needed.
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary.
—
Wiper blades
Check for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly.
