Winterising your ear now will give you a headstart cm hazardous winter driving. Now is the time to have snow tiros put on. Radial tires are not snow tires unless they have a snow tread. But remember, it's unsafe to mix regular snow tires with rtdials. The driving characteristics of radial tires are or from those of bias-pl- y tires and mixing types increases the risk of slipping and skidding. Be sure to keep tire pressure at recommended levels; under-inflatin- g your tires increases wear, not traction. ' Because batteries are leas efficient in cold weather, be sure yours is completely tested and ready to go. The battery cable damps should not bo loose or corroded. Brakes should be checked and serviced if necessary to avoid skids on slippery road They must not have any tendency to pull or grab; you need braking power on all four different Mas-belte- d aial Check the fluid levels throughout differential, your steering, radiator, battery, Ker diltch, windshield washer,; and replenish them if necessary.
