MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Maintenance Schedule – Gasoline
Engine
The Scheduled Maintenance services listed in
this manual must be done at the times or
mileages specified to protect your vehicle war-
ranty and ensure the best vehicle performance
and reliability. More frequent maintenance may
be needed for vehicles in severe operating
conditions, such as dusty areas and very short
trip driving. Inspection and service should also
be done anytime a malfunction is suspected.
The oil change indicator system will remind you
that it is time to take your vehicle in for sched-
uled maintenance.
On Non-EVIC equipped vehicles, “CHANgE
OIL” will flash in the instrument cluster odom-
eter and a single chime will sound, indicating
that an oil change is necessary.
The oil change indicator message will illuminate
approximately 7,000 miles (11 200 km) after the
most recent oil change was performed. Have
your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within 500 miles (800 km). However, an earlier
oil change at 3,000 miles (5 000 km) may be
required if the vehicle is operated under “Se-
vere Duty Conditions” later in this section.
NOTE:
•
The oil change indicator message will not
monitor the time since the last oil change.
Change your vehicle’s oil if it has been six
months since your last oil change even if
the oil change indicator message is NOT
illuminated.
•
Change your engine oil more often if you
drive your vehicle off-road for an ex-
tended period of time.
•
Under
no
circumstances
should
oil
change intervals exceed 7,500 miles
(12 000 km) or six months, whichever
comes first.
Your dealer will reset the oil change indicator
message after completing the scheduled oil
change. If this scheduled oil change is per-
formed by someone other than your dealer, the
message can be reset by referring to the steps
described
under
“Instrument
Cluster
Description/Odometer/Trip Odometer” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
