(4)= Applies to vehicles sold in the United States
and is recommended for vehicles sold in Canada.
(5)= Check fluid level in brake master cylinder,
power steering pump, front and rear axles,
transmission, and hydraulic spring parking brake
pump (if equipped). A low fluid level in the
brake master cylinder can indicate worn brake
linings and should be checked accordingly.
(6)= Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper
hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for
surface condition. Inspect caliper assemblies.
Check brake pedal for excessive free play or
travel (or every 6 months, whichever occurs first)
and have serviced if needed. Check brakes
more often if driving habits and conditions result
in frequent braking.(7)= This vehicle has the Engine Oil Life System.
This system will show you when to change the
engine oil and filter — usually between 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) and 12,000 miles (20 000 km) since
your last oil change. Under severe conditions,
the indicator may come on before 3,000 miles

vehicle more than 12,000 miles (20 000 km),
or 12 months, or 600 engine hours, without an
oil and filter change.
Remember to reset the Engine Oil Life System
whenever the oil is changed. For more information,
