these services every 12 000 km/7,500 mi.
Proper vehicle maintenance helps to keep
the vehicle in good working condition,
improves fuel economy, and reduces vehicle
emissions.
Because of the way people use vehicles,
maintenance needs vary. There may need to
be more frequent checks and services. The

recommended limits on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See“Vehicle
Load Limits” in the owner’s manual.
.Are driven on reasonable road surfaces
within legal driving limits.
.Use the recommended fuel. See Fuel for
Diesel Engines 025.

{Warning
Performing maintenance work can be
dangerous and can cause serious injury.
Perform maintenance work only if the
required information, proper tools, and
equipment are available. If they are not,
see your dealer to have a trained
technician do the work. See “Doing Your
Own Service Work” in the owner’s
manual.
Maintenance Schedule
See the owner’s manual for other services
and intervals that may be required.
Owner Checks and Services
Check the engine oil level. See Engine Oil
0 55.
Engine Oil Change
When the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message displays, have the engine oil and
filter changed within the next 1 000 km/
600 mi. If driven under the best conditions,
the engine oil life system may not indicate
the need for vehicle service for up to a year.
The engine oil and filter must be changed at
least once a year and the oil life system
must be reset. Your trained dealer technician
can perform this work. If the engine oil life
system is reset accidentally, service the
vehicle within 5 000 km/3,000 mi since the
last service. Reset the oil life system when
the oil is changed. See Engine Oil Life
System 058.
