Footnotes
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to
the completion of the vehicle’s useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the
maintenance be recorded.
* If your vehicle has the GM Oil Life System , the
monitor will show you when to change the oil
-- usually
between 3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 7,500 miles
(12 500 km) since your last oil change. Under severe
conditions, the indicator may come on before
3,000 miles (5 000 km). Never drive your vehicle
more than 7,500 miles (12 500 km) or 12 months,
(whichever occurs first), without an oil change.
The system won’t detect dust in the oil. So if you drive in a
dusty area be sure to change your oil every 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) or sooner if the CHANGE OIL SOON message
appears. Remember to reset the Oil Life Monitor when the
oil has been changed. For more information, see “Oil Life
System” in the Index.
+ A good time to check your brakes is during tire
rotation. See “Brake System Inspection” under
“Periodic Maintenance Inspections” in Part C of
this schedule.
