Protecting Your Investment
Maintenance is an investment that paysdividends in the form of improvedreliability, durability and resale value. Tomaintain the proper performance of yourvehicle and its emission control systems,make sure you have scheduledmaintenance performed at the designatedintervals.
Your vehicle comes with the IntelligentOil-Life Monitor system, a messageappears in the information display at theproper oil change interval. This intervalmay be up to one year or 15,000 mi(24,000 km) for the 6.7L Diesel.
When the oil change message appears inthe information display, it is time for an oilchange. Make sure you perform the oilchange within two weeks or 500 mi(800 km) of the message appearing. Makesure to reset the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitorafter each oil change. See NormalScheduled Maintenance (page 597).
