you to be happy with it. We hope you’ll go to your
dealer far all your service needs. You’ll get genuine GM
parts and GM-trained and supported service people.
We hope you’ll want to keep your GM vehicle all GM.

Doing Your Own Service Work
If you want to do some of your own service work, you’ll
want
to get the proper Buick Service Manual. It tells you
much more about how to service your Buick than this
manual can.
To order the proper service manual, see
“Service Publications” in the Index.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
do your own service work, see “Servicing Your Air
Bag-Equipped Buick” in the Index.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date of any service work you
perform. See “Maintenahce Record” in the Index.

NOTICE:
If you try to do your own service work without
knowing enough about it, your vehicle could be
damaged.

rotated at the mileages recommended
in the
Maintenance Schedule. See “Scheduled Maintenance
Services”
in the Index.

Use this rotation pattern.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and
rear inflation pressure as shown
on the Tire-Loading

properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque”
