Parking Brake and Automatic Transaxle
PARK
(P)
Mechanism Check
When you are doing this check, your vehicle
could begin
to
move.
You
or others could be
injured and property could be damaged. Make
sure there is room in front
of
your vehicle in case
it
begins to roll. Be ready to apply the regular
brake
at
once should the vehicle begin
to
move.
I
Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle facing
downhill. Keeping your foot on the regular brake, set the
parking brake.
To
check the parking brake: With the engine running
and transaxle in NEUTRAL
(N),
slowly remove foot
pressure from the regular brake pedal.
Do
this until
the vehicle is held by the parking brake only.
To check the PARK (P) mechanism’s holding ability:
With the engine running, shift to PARK (P). Then
release all brakes.
Underbody Flushing Service
At least every spring, use plain water to flush any
corrosive materials from the underbody. Take care to
clean thoroughly any areas where mud and other debris
can collect.
