Important maintenance tips

Check the antifreeze/coolant level weekly. Some cars have transparent reservoirs with level markings. Fill to level marking with 50/50 solution of antifreeze and water.
Inspect belts and hoses monthly. Replace worn, glazed or frayed belts. If a hose looks bad, or feels too soft or too hard, it should be replaced.
Check transmission fluid monthly with engine warm and running.
Check oil every other fill up. Change oil every 3,000 miles or 3 months, whichever comes first. Replace oil filter with every oil change.
Check the air filter every other month. Replace it when it's dirty or as part of a tune-up.
Check brake fluid monthly.
Keep windshield washer fluid reservoir full.
Check power steering fluid level once per month.
