SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 163
This rotation pattern does not apply to some
directional tires that must not be reversed.
Tire Rotation (Forward Cross)
STORING THE VEHICLE
If the vehicle should remain stationary for more
than a month, observe the following
precautions:
Check that the Electric Park Brake is not
engaged.
Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from the
battery post and be sure that the battery is
fully charged. During storage check battery
charge quarterly.
If you do not disconnect the battery from the
electrical system, check the battery charge
every 30 days.
Whenever you leave the vehicle stationary for
two weeks or more, idle the engine for
approximately five minutes, with the air
conditioning system on and high fan speed.
This will ensure proper lubrication of the
system, thus minimizing the possibility of
damage to the compressor when the vehicle
is put back into operation.
CAUTION!
Proper operation of four-wheel drive vehicles
depends on tires of equal size, type and
circumference on each wheel. Any difference
in tire size can cause damage to the power
transfer unit. Tire rotation schedule should be
followed to balance tire wear.
CAUTION!
Before removal of the positive and negative
terminals to the battery, wait at least a
minute with ignition switch in the OFF position
and close the driver’s door. When
reconnecting the positive and negative
terminals to the battery be sure the ignition
switch is in the OFF position and the driver’s
door is closed.
