U.S. Federal regulations require that upon transfer of
vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the

fore, if the odometer reading is changed during repair or
replacement be sure to keep a record of the reading
before and after service so that the correct distance can be
determined.

The FSS permits a flexible service schedule that is directly
related to the operating conditions of the vehicle.
There are two symbols which will appear in the
main odometer display field prior to the next
suggested service. This symbol represents Ser-
vice A.
This second symbol represents Service B.

Depending on operating conditions through-
out the year, the next service is calculated and
displayed next to this symbol in days remain-
ing before the next service is required.
Likewise, the next service may be calculated
and displayed next to this symbol as distance
remaining before the next service is required.
The counter can also be reset by any individual after the
indicated service has been performed. To do so:
1. Turn key to the ON/RUN position.
2. Within one second press the knob/button twice.
3. The present status for days or distance is dis-
played. Within 10 seconds turn the key to OFF/
LOCK.
4. Press and hold the knob/button, while turning
the key to ON/RUN again. The present status for
days or distance is displayed once more. Continue
to hold the knob/button.
After approximately 10 seconds, a signal sounds and
the display shows 7,000 miles (Canada: 11,000 km) for
approximately 10 seconds.
5. Release the knob/button.
If the FSS counter was inadvertently reset, have an
authorized dealer correct it.
The message is displayed for approximately 10 sec-
onds when turning the key to the ON/RUN position,
or while driving when reaching the service warning
threshold. It can be canceled manually by pressing the
knob/button.

either the symbol for Service A or the symbol for
