Using The Maintenance Schedule
Because of the different ways GM vehicles are used, maintenance needs vary. More frequent maintenance intervals than found in this manual may by needed. When reading this schedule, keep in mind the conditions under which the vehicle is operated. Adjust the maintenance intervals accordingly.
The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed in
Fluid and Lubricant Recommendations
. Use the proper fluids and lubricants whenever servicing this vehicle.
The maintenance schedules found in this manual are for vehicles that:
| • | Are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits. |
| • | Are driven off-road in the recommended manner. |
| • | Use recommended unleaded fuel. |
Scheduled Maintenance
