Necessary inspections
Drinking and  driving is dangerous.
Drunk  driving  is  the  number  one
contributor  to  the  highway   death
toll each year. Even a small amount
of alcohol  will affect your  reflexes,
perceptions and  judgment. Driving
while under  the influence of  drugs
is as dangerous or more dangerous
than driving drunk.
You are much more likely  to have a
serious  accident   if  you   drink  or
take drugs and drive.
If you are  drinking or taking drugs,
don’t drive. Do not  ride with a driv-
er who has been  drinking or taking
drugs. Choose  a designated driver
or call a cab.
Fluid  levels, such  as engine  oil,  engine
coolant,  brake   fluid,  and  washer   fluid
should  be checked  on  a  regular basis,
with the exact  interval depending on  the
fluid. Further details are provided  in sec-
tion 7, “Maintenance”.
For safe operation, be sure you are famil-
iar with your vehicle and its equipment.
WARNING
All  passengers  must   be  properly
belted whenever the vehicle is mov-
ing. Refer to “Seat belts” in section
3
for  more   information   on  their
proper use.
