WINTER DRIVING

Engine oil
The engine oil can become very thick
at low temperatures, thus making it
difficult to start the engine.
Change to a thinner oil designed for
winter use before the start of cold
weather; for the appropriate oil viscos-
ity, refer to the "Consumer Informa-
tion" section.
D180B01P-GAT
Engine coolant
If the temperature in your area drops
below freezing, there is the danger that
the coolant in the engine or radiator
could freeze and cause severe dam-
age to the engine and/or radiator.
Be sure to add a sufficient amount of
antifreeze to the coolant to prevent it
from freezing.
The engine coolant mixture used at the
factory is intended to be left in the
cooling system and provides protec-
tion against freezing for temperature
as low as approximately -30°C (-20°F).
The concentration should be checked
before the start of cold weather and
anti-freeze added to the system if nec-
essary.
SMOOTH CORNERING
C150A01A-AAT
Avoid braking or gear changing in cor-
ners, especially when roads are wet.
Ideally, corners should always be taken
under gentle acceleration. If you follow
these suggestions, tire wear will be
held to a minimum.
