referring to the steps described under "Electronic Vehicle
Information Center" in Section 4 of this manual.
At Each Stop for Fuel
• Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully
warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while
the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accu-

level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
• Check the windshield washer solvent and add if
required.

master cylinder, power steering and transmission
(4.7L and 5.7L only) and add as needed.
• Check all lights and other electrical items for correct
operation.
