Brake fluid is toxic. If brake fluid contacts the eyes, flush eyes

with running water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if

irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting.

Seek medical attention immediately.

If you use a brake fluid that is not DOT 3, you will cause

permanent damage to your brakes.

Do not let the reservoir for the master cylinder run dry. This

may cause the brakes to fail.

DRIVELINE UNIVERSAL JOINT AND SLIP YOKE

Your vehicle may be equipped with universal joints that require

lubrication. Refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for maintenance

intervals. If the original universal joints are replaced with universal joints

equipped with grease fittings, lubrication will also be necessary.

TRANSMISSION FLUID

Checking automatic transmission fluid (if equipped)

Refer to your scheduled maintenance guide for scheduled intervals for

fluid checks and changes. Your transmission does not consume fluid.

However, the fluid level should be checked if the transmission is not

working properly, i.e., if the transmission slips or shifts slowly or if you

notice some sign of fluid leakage.

Automatic transmission fluid expands when warmed. To obtain an

accurate fluid check, drive the vehicle until it is at normal operating

temperature (approximately 30 km [20 miles]). If your vehicle has been

operated for an extended period at high speeds, in city traffic during hot

weather or pulling a trailer, the vehicle should be turned off for about 30

minutes to allow fluid to cool before checking.

1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (20 miles) or until it reaches normal operating

temperature.

2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.

3. With the parking brake engaged and your foot on the brake pedal,

start the engine and move the gearshift lever through all of the gear

ranges. Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.

4. Latch the gearshift lever in P (Park) and leave the engine running.
