FSS SYSTEM
The Flexible Service System (FSS) permits a flexible
service schedule that is directly related to the operating
conditions of the vehicle. See the Understanding Your
Instrument Panel section for details on how to use the
FSS.
The oil change interval for your vehicle is initially set at
7,000 mi (Canada: 11 000 km). Very light duty driving
cycles (most trips more than 10 mi [16 km]) at moderate
speeds in moderate temperature conditions) can extend
the service interval beyond 7,000 mi (Canada: 11 000 km).
IfANYof the following apply to your driving, the oil
change interval can be reduced significantly:
þDay or night temperatures are below 32ÉF (0ÉC).
þStop and go driving.
þExtensive engine idling.
þDriving in dusty conditions.
þShort trips of less than 10 mi (16 km).
þMore than 50% of your driving is at sustained high
speeds during hot weather, above 90ÉF (32ÉC).
There are two symbols which will appear in the main
odometer display field prior to the next suggested ser-
vice.
This symbol represents Service A.
This second symbol represents Service B. Ser-
vice B rotates with Service A and includes
additional service tasks.
The next service is normally calculated and
displayed next to the Service A or Service B
symbol as distance remaining before the next
service is required.

Depending on operating conditions through-
out the year, a clock symbol may appear next to
the service symbol. When this occurs, the next
service is calculated and displayed in days
remaining before the next service is required.
You should have the maintenance performed within the
stated time period or distance.
Following a completed A or B service your authorized
dealer sets the counter to 7,000 mi (Canada: 11,000 km).
NOTE:When disconnecting vehicle battery for one or
more days at a time, such days will not be counted. Any
such days not counted by FSS can be added by your
authorized dealer.
The interval between services is determined by the type
of vehicle operation. Driving at extreme speeds, and coldstarts combined with short distance driving in which the
engine does not reach normal operating temperature,
reduce the interval between services.
Regardless of the service interval determined by your
FSS, the scheduled services as posted in this manual must
be followed to properly care for your vehicle.
REGULAR CHECK-UPS
To maintain the safe operation of your vehicle, it is
recommended that you perform the following tasks on a
regular basis (i.e., weekly or whenever the vehicle is
refueled).
CAUTION!
Failure to perform the required maintenance items
may result in damage to the vehicle.
