Using Maintenance Schedules



USING THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
We want to help keep this vehicle in good working condition. But we do not know exactly how you will drive it. You might drive very short distances only a few times a week. Or you might drive long distances all the time in very hot, dusty weather. You might use the vehicle in making deliveries. Or you might drive it to work, to do errands, or in many other ways.

Because of all the different ways people use their vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You might need more frequent checks and replacements. So please read the following and note how you drive.

This schedule is for vehicles that:
-> Carry passengers and cargo within recommended limits on the Tire and Loading Information label.
-> Are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits.
-> Use the recommended fuel.

The services in Scheduled Maintenance should be performed when indicated.

Caution: Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be dangerous. In trying to do some jobs, you can be seriously injured. Do your own maintenance work only if you have the required know-how and the proper tools and equipment for the job.

Owner Checks and Services tells what should be checked, when to check it, and what can easily be done to help keep the vehicle in good condition.
