A: Demonstrate this by applying the footbrake to keep the car steady, disengaging and reapplying the parking brake to show that it secures itself and is not at the end of its working travel.

Q: Show me how you would check that the horn is working (off road only)

A: By giving the horn a short burst taking care not to frighten any pedestrians.

Q: Show me how you would check that the direction indicators are working

A: Applying the indicators or hazard warning switch and walk around the car to check functioning of all indicators.

Q: Show me how you would clean the windscreen using the windscreen washers and wipers

A: Operate windscreen washer control and then activate the windscreen wipers (turn on ignition if necessary).

Q: Show me how you would set the demister controls to clear all the windows effectively, this should

A: Set all relevant controls including air vents at both sides to point towards the side windows, use the control switch to direct hot air onto the windscreen then operate the fan, press the heated rear screen switch to clear the rear window.

Tell Me

Q: Tell me how you check the engine oil level.

A: Remove the dipstick and wipe the end with a clean cloth or rag. Replace the dipstick and remove it again to check the oil on the end which must be between the minimum & maximum markers.

Q: Tell me how you check the brake fluid level.

A: The fluid must show between the minimum and maximum marker levelson the side of the brake fluid reservoir.

Q: Tell me how you check the engine coolant level.

A: The coolant fluid must show between the minimum and maximum marker levels on the side of the coolant reservoir.

Q: Tell me how you check windscreen washer fluid level.

A: The washer fluid reservoir does not have external markings. Remove the cap and make a visual check of the level.  This should be topped up regularly with water & screenwash additive (not anti‐freeze) to help clear dirt & grime and to stop it freezing in Winter.

Q: Tell me how you check that the footbrake is working before starting a journey.

A: The brakes should not feel spongy or pull to one side and should be tested as soon as you pull away where safe to do so.

Q: Tell me where you find the recommended tyre pressures and how you check them.

A: Details will be in the manufacturers guide and normally on the passenger/driver side door pillar. The pressure should be checked when the tyres are cold and the spare should be checked as well and valve caps should be replaced.

Q: Tell me how you check the brake lights are working.

A: I would press the brake pedal when there is a reflected view of the rear of the car e.g.  off another parked car or a shop window, or ask a friend to press the pedal so I could check the lights myself.

A: Adjust the rigid part of the restraint so that it is close to the back of your head and level with your eyes or top of your ears.
