Scheduled Maintenance

Short Trip/City Definition
Follow the Short Trip/City Scheduled Maintenance if
any one of these conditions is true for your vehicle:
Most trips are less than 5 to 10 miles (8 to 16 km).
This is particularly important when outside
temperatures are below freezing.
Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent
driving in stop
-and-go traffic).
Your vehicle has the 2200 L4 (Code 5) flexible
fuel engine and you have used ethanol fuel
(85% Ethanol/E
-85).
You operate your vehicle in dusty areas or
off
-road frequently.
You frequently tow a trailer.
If the vehicle is used for delivery service, police, taxi
or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you should follow this schedule if you
operate your vehicle under any of these conditions is that
these conditions cause engine oil to break down sooner.
