To check the engine oil level, park the car on a level surface and allow the engine to cool. Locate the dipstick, pull it out, wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then pull it out again to check the oil level. Ensure the oil level is between the minimum and maximum marks.
For optimal performance, use premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 or higher. This helps maintain engine efficiency and performance.
The air filter should be inspected every 15,000 miles and replaced every 30,000 miles, or as needed, depending on driving conditions.
The recommended tire pressure is typically 32 psi for the front tires and 36 psi for the rear tires. Refer to the sticker on the driver's door jamb for exact specifications.
To reset the service light, turn the ignition key to position 1 without starting the engine. Press and hold the trip odometer reset button until the service icon appears. Release and press the button again until "Reset" appears, then hold until the light resets.
If the car won't start, check the battery connections and charge. Ensure the fuel level is adequate. Investigate the starter and ignition system. If the problem persists, consult a professional mechanic.
To replace the headlight bulb, open the hood and locate the headlight assembly. Remove the cover, disconnect the wiring harness, and twist the bulb holder counterclockwise to remove it. Replace with a new bulb and reverse the process.
A squealing noise during braking may indicate worn brake pads. Inspect the brake pads and rotors, and replace the pads if they are worn past the minimum thickness.
Regular maintenance includes oil changes every 7,500 miles, brake inspections every 10,000 miles, and coolant checks every 30,000 miles. Follow the service manual for a detailed schedule.
To improve fuel efficiency, maintain proper tire pressure, regularly service the engine, use the recommended oil type, and drive smoothly without excessive acceleration or idling.
