To purchase service information,
see Service Publications Ordering
Information on page 7-15.
Owner Checks and Services on
page 6-10 tells what should
be checked, when to check it, and
what can easily be done to help
keep the vehicle in good condition.
The proper replacement parts,
fluids, and lubricants to use are
listed in Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 6-13 and
Maintenance Replacement Parts on
page 6-15. When the vehicle is
serviced, make sure these are used.
All parts should be replaced and all
necessary repairs done before you
or anyone else drives the vehicle.
We recommend the use of genuine
parts from your dealer/retailer.
Scheduled Maintenance
When the Change Engine Oil
light displays, service is required for
the vehicle. Have the vehicle
serviced as soon as possible within
the next 600 miles (1 000 km). It
is possible that, if driving under the
best conditions, the engine oil
life system may not indicate that
vehicle service is necessary for over
a year. However, the engine oil
and filter must be changed at least
once a year and at this time the
system must be reset. Your
dealer/retailer has trained service
technicians who will perform
this work using genuine parts and
reset the system.
If the engine oil life system is ever
reset accidentally, service the vehicle
within 3,000 miles (5 000 km) since
the last service. Remember to reset
the oil life system whenever the oil is
changed. See Engine Oil Life
System on page 5-16 for information
on the Engine Oil Life System and
resetting the system.
When the Change Engine Oil light
appears, certain services, checks,
and inspections are required.
Required services are described in
the following for “Maintenance I”
and “Maintenance II.” Generally, it is
recommended that the first service
be Maintenance I, the second
service be Maintenance II, and then
alternate Maintenance I and
Maintenance II thereafter. However,
in some cases, Maintenance II
may be required more often.
