Brake System Service
Check the disc brake pads or the drum brake linings.
Check the pad and the lining thickness carefully.
Tire and Wheel Inspection and Rotation
Check the tires for abnormal wear or damage. To
equalize wear and obtain maximum tire life, rotate the
tires. If irregular or premature wear exists, check the
wheel alignment and check for damaged wheels. While
the tires and wheels are removed, inspect the brakes.
NORMAL VEHICLE USE
The maintenance instructions contained in the
maintenance schedule are based on the assumption
that the vehicle will be used for the following reasons:
lTo carry passengers and cargo within the limitation

EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE SERVICES
The services listed in the maintenance schedule are
further explained below. When the following maintenance
services are performed, make sure all the parts are
replaced and all the necessary repairs are done before
driving the vehicle. Always use the proper fluid and
lubricants.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter Change
Always use above the API SH grade or recommended
engine oil.
Engine Oil Viscosity
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel
economy and cold weather operation. Lower viscosity
engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance; however, higher temperature
weather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils
for satisfactory lubrication. Using oils of any viscosity
other than those viscosities recommended could result
in engine damage.
Cooling System Service
Drain, flush and refill the system with new coolant. Refer
to “Recommended Fluids And Lubricants” in this section.
