I Maintenance Schedule I I
The services shown in this schedule up to 100,000 miles
( 166 000 km) should be performed after 100,000 miles
(1 66 000 km) at the same intervals.
Footnotes
f- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not
nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the
completion
of vehicle useful life. We, however, urge that
all recommended maintenance services be performed at
the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded.
* Your vehicle has an Engine Oil Life Monitor.
This monitor will show you when to change the oil
--
usually between 3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 7,500 miles
(1 2 500 km) since your last oil change. Under severe
conditions the indicator may come
on before
3,000 miles (5 000 km). Never drive your vehicle
more than
7,500 miles (12 500 km) or 12 months
without an oil change.
The system won’t detect dust in
the oil. So if you
drive
in a dusty area be sure to change your oil every
3,000 miles (5 000 km) or sooner if the CHANGE OIL
light comes on. Remember to reset the Oil Life Monitor
when the oil has been changed. For more information,
see “Engine Oil Life Monitor” in the Index.
