VEHICLE INSPECTION INFORMATION
Note: Always make sure the parking brake is applied before starting the
engine.
Engine compartment (with engine stopped)
Belts (Fan,
alternator, water
pump and A/C
compressor):
Check for glazing, fraying or cracking.
Any leaks: Check for signs of fluid puddles, dripping fluid
on the ground under the engine or the
underside of the engine.
HVAC air inlet: Check for debris, leaves, etc. that may have
collected on the HVAC air inlet grille or inside
the exterior module as this may cause reduced
system performance.
HVAC fresh air filter
(if equipped):
Periodically check the HVAC fresh air filter for
cleanliness.
WARNING: Exercise great caution when working on vehicle
equipped with an automatic fan clutch. The fan starts in motion
only after the engine coolant reaches a predetermined temperature or
the refrigerant pressure (if equipped with air conditioning) reaches a
predetermined setting. The fan will start at these points with no
advance warning. Never reach near, or permit objects to protrude into
the fan blade radius while the engine is running, as this could result in
vehicle damage, personal injury or death.
