Maintenance
The maintenance menu allows the user to set
reminders for various vehicle maintenance
intervals.
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a sub-
stitute for regular tire checks, including tire
pressure checks. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Changing wheels and tires” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion of this manual. Many factors including
tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and
road conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the tirereplacement indicator for a certain driving
distance does not mean your tires will last
that long. Use the tire replacement indica-
tor as a guide only and always perform
regular tire checks. Failure to perform
regular tire checks, including tire pressure
checks could result in tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and may lead to
a collision, which could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death.
