Service information
In order to ensure economical
and safe vehicle operation and to
maintain the value of your vehicle,
it is of vital importance that all
maintenance work is carried out at
the proper intervals as specified.
See your Service/Warranty Booklet
for the service schedules and for
more information.
Engine oil life system
The vehicle has a computer system
that lets you know when to change
the engine oil and filter.
The frequency of the oil change
depends on driving patterns, engine
RPM and engine temperature.
When the system has calculated that
oil life has been diminished,
will
illuminate. See Change engine oil
light on page 68.
When
illuminates continuously,
have the engine oil and filter
changed as soon as possible, within
the next 1,000 km.
It is possible that, if you are driving
under the best conditions, the oil
life system may not indicate that
an oil change is necessary for a
longer period than that shown in the
Maintenance schedule. However, the
engine oil and filter must be changed
in accordance with the Maintenance
schedule outlined in the Service/
Warranty Booklet.
