Maintenance and Care Owner Maintenance Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid reservoir; add fluid if necessary. Body Lubrication All moving points of the body, such as door and hood hinges and locks, should be lubricated each time the engine oil is changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on locks during cold weather. Make sure the hood's secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is released. Use plain water if washer fluid is unavailable. But use only washer fluid in cold weather to prevent it from freezing. NOTE Front and rear washer fluid is supplied from the same reservoir. 8-27
