Clean water from the air conditioning system is normal. AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR: ❑ Check power steering fluid level. ❑ Check windshield washer spray and wiper operation.
Owner maintenance checks AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR: ❑ ❑ ❑ ❑ Lubricate door hinges and checks and hood hinges. Lubricate door and hood locks and latches. Lubricate door weather-strips. Clean battery and terminals, check electrolyte level on low maintenance (auxiliary and replacement) batteries. If any of these conditions are noted, bring them to the attention of your dealer or qualified service technician as soon as possible.
