maintenance inspections. We have tried to
present the information you’ll need to learn

and to present it as clearly as possible. We
hope you’ll find this manual easy to use.
There will be times when you need to take
this manual out of the glovebox. When you

NOTE
After you’ve read this manual, it should
be stored in the cab for convenient ref-
erence and remain with this truck
when sold.
Your vehicle may not have all the features
or options mentioned in this manual.
Therefore, you should pay careful attention
to the instructions that pertain to just your

There are several tools built into this
manual to help you find what you need
quickly and easily. First is the Quick Table
of Contents. Located at the front of the
manual, this lists the main subjects
covered and gives section numbers where
you can find these subjects. Use the Quick
Table of Contents to find information on a
large subject like “Maintenance.” Cross-
referenced citations also help you get the
information you need. If some other part of
the manual contains further information on
the subject you are reading about, we’ll
indicate that in a cross-reference like this:
(See
Safety Alerts on page 5). You won’t

Finally you’ll find a helpful Subject Index.
It’s in the back of the manual and
alphabetically lists the subjects covered.

example, just look under Brake in the
Subject Index. You’ll find all the pages
listed where brakes or braking are
