In cold weather, use a windshield washer fluid
additive in the concentration indicated by the
manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION
Do not put engine coolant or antifreeze into the
washer fluid. This could cause paint damage.
•
Check the undercarriage and fender wells in
snowy weather. If necessary, remove snow and
ice, taking care not to damage the vehicle.
•
If the brakes freeze, either from driving on snow-
covered roads, or while parked in cold weather,
braking performance can be reduced. Drive
carefully and be alert to other traffic. With frozen
brakes, drive slowly and put light pressure on
the brake pedal. This will warm the brakes.
•
When parking your vehicle, select a site not
directly exposed to wind or snow. Face it away
from the wind.
•
Do not apply the parking brake in extremely cold
conditions. This could cause it to freeze and
become impossible to release. In cold condi-
tions, do the following steps to park the vehicle:
1. Stop the vehicle and set the parking brake.
Never park on a slope.
2. Chock all the wheels securely.
3. <manual transmission> Shift into first gear or
reverse.
<automatic transmission> Move the shift
selector to “P” (park).
4. Release the parking brake.
