than the recommended intervals.
*3 Implement the fuel injection amount correction.
*4 Also inspect the air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, inspect the drive belts at every 20,000
km (12,500 miles) or 12 months .
a) Driving in dusty conditions
b) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
c) Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only

following conditions apply.
a) Purpose of vehicle use is police car, taxi or driving school car.
b) Driving in dusty conditions
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
Once the fl exible maintenance is selected, the vehicle calculates the remaining oil life based on engine operating
conditions and lets you know when an oil change is due by illuminating the wrench indicator light in the
instrument cluster.
Replace the engine oil and fi lter when message/wrench indicator light is ON. And they must be changed at least
once a year or within 20,000 km (12,500 miles) since last engine oil and fi lter change.
The system must be reset whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
