INFINITI retailer for this service. See "Precau-
tions when starting and driving" in the "5.
Starting and driving" section.
Fluid leaks:
Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or
other fluid leaks after the vehicle has been
parked for a while. Water dripping from the
air conditioner after use is normal. If you
should notice any leaks or if gasoline fumes
are evident, check for the cause and have it
corrected immediately.
Radiator and hoses:
Check the front of the radiator and clean off
any dirt, insects, leaves, etc., that may have
accumulated. Make sure the hoses have no
cracks, deformation, rot or loose connec-
tions.
Underbody:
The underbody is frequently exposed to cor-
rosive substances such as those used on icy
roads or to control dust. It is very important to
remove these substances, otherwise rust will
form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and
around the exhaust system. At the end of
winter, the underbody should be thoroughly
flushed with plain water, being careful to
clean those areas where mud and dirt may
accumulate. For additional information, see
"Cleaning exterior" in the "7. Appearance and
care" section.
Windshield washer fluid*:
Check that there is adequate fluid in the res-
ervoir.
