compartment hinges and latches with
a light grade oil.

Engine

Change the engine oil and filter prior to
storage because used engine oil
contains contaminates which may
cause engine damage.

Start the engine every 15 days for a
minimum of 15 minutes. Run at fast idle
with the climate controls set to defrost

operating temperature.

We recommend that you change the

again.

•
Fill the fuel tank with high-quality fuel
until the first automatic shutoff of the
fuel pump nozzle.

Protect against freezing temperatures.
•
When removing your vehicle from
storage, check coolant fluid level.
Confirm that there are no cooling
system leaks and that fluid is at the
recommended level.
Battery
•
Check and recharge as necessary. Keep
connections clean.
•
If storing your vehicle for more than 30
days without recharging the battery,
we recommend that you disconnect
the battery cables to maintain battery
charge for quick starting.
Note:
It is necessary to reset memory
features if battery cables are disconnected.
Brakes
•
Make sure the brakes and parking brake
release fully.
Tires
•
Maintain recommended air pressure.
Miscellaneous
•
Make sure all linkages, cables, levers
and pins under your vehicle are covered
with grease to prevent rust.
•
Move vehicles at least 25 ft (7.5 m)
every 15 days to lubricate working parts
and prevent corrosion.
Removing Vehicle From Storage
When your vehicle is ready to come out of
storage, do the following:
•
Wash your vehicle to remove any dirt
or grease film build-up on window
surfaces.
•
Check windshield wipers for any
deterioration.
•
Check under the hood for any foreign
material that may have collected
during storage such as mice or squirrel
nests.
•
Check the exhaust for any foreign
material that may have collected
during storage.
