INTRODUCTION
The oil change indicator system will remind you
that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled
maintenance. Based on engine operation condi-
tion the oil change indicator message will illumi-
nate, this means that service is required for your
vehicle. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as
possible, within the next 800 km. The oil change
indicator message will not monitor the time since
the last oil change. Change your vehicles oil if it
has been 6 months since your last oil change even
if the oil change indicator message is NOT illu-
minated. Change your engine oil more often if
you drive your vehicle off-road for an extendedperiod of time.Under no circumstances should
oil change intervals exceed 10,000 km or
6 months, whichever comes first.Your dealer
will reset the oil change indicator message after
completing the scheduled oil change. If this
scheduled oil change is performed by someone
other than your dealer the message can be reset by
referring to the steps described in the Owner's
Manual.
The performance of all scheduled service work is
required to maintain your vehicle in good operat-
ing condition. Chrysler Canada Inc. reserves the
right to deny warranty coverage if the vehicle has
not been properly maintained. While we do not
insist that such work be performed by factory
authorized retailers, we strongly recommend that
an authorized Chrysler, Jeeptor Dodge Retailer
perform this work.AT EACH STOP FOR FUEL
²Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes
after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Check-
ing the oil level while the vehicle is on level
ground will improve the accuracy of the oil
level reading. Add oil only when the level is at
or below the ADD or MIN mark.
²Check the windshield washer solvent and add
if required.
ONCE A MONTH

or damage.
²Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the
terminals as required.
