Default Winter storage - GS 35 AWD

Hi All. I am new to this so bear with me. Live in Toronto and I am storing my GS350AWD in an indoor, unheated garage. I plan on covering the car for until April but will be able to start it periodically and drive it around the 4 story garage. Is there anything special that I should do prior to this.
Thanks for any help.

Welcomes to CL. It's depend how long you want to store your car. I would fill up the gas tank to 1/4 of the tank with Stabil fuel stabilizer, inflate tire pressure to about 45 psi to prevent the flat spot and disconnect the negative battery terminal. I recommend to start the car up every two weeks if possible and drive around the parking garage for at least 15-20 minutes or until the temp gauge reach the normal engine operation.
