A Word About Maintenance
We at General Motors want to help you
keep your vehicle in good working
condition. But we don’t know exactly
how you’ll drive it. You may drive very
short distances only a few times a week.
Or you may drive long distances all the
time in very hot, dusty weather. You
may use your vehicle in malting
deliveries. Or you may drive it to work,
to do errands
or in many other ways.
Because of all the different ways people
use their GM vehicles, maintenance
needs vary. You may even need more
frequent checks and replacements than
you will find in the schedules in this
part.
So please read this part and note
how you drive. If you have any
questions on how to keep your vehicle
in good condition, see your Chevrolet
dealer, the place many
GM owners
choose to have their maintenance work
done. Your dealer can be relied upon to
use proper parts and practices.
204
Your Vehicle and the Environment
Proper vehicle maintenance not only
helps to keep your vehicle in good
working condition, but also helps the
environment. All recommended
maintenance procedures are important.
Improper vehicle maintenance or the
removal of important components can
significantly affect the quality of the air
we breathe. Improper fluid levels or
even the wrong tire inflation can
increase the level
of emissions from
your vehicle.
To help protect our
environment, and to help keep your
vehicle in good condition, please
maintain your vehicle properly.
How This Part is Organized
The remainder of this part is divided
into five sections:
“Section A: Scheduled Maintenance
Services” shows what to have done and
how often. Some
of these services can
be complex,
so unless you are technically
qualified and have the necessary
equipment, you should let your dealer’s
service department or another qualified
service center do these jobs. If
you are skilled enough to do some
work on your vehicle, you will probably
want to get the service information GM
publishes. You will find a list of
publications and how
to get them in
this manual. See
Service Publications
in the Index.
“Section B: Owner Checks and
Services” tells you what should be
checked whenever you stop for fuel. It
also explains what you can easily do to
help keep your vehicle in good
condition.
“Section
C: Periodic Maintenance
Inspections” explains important

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine inspections that your Chevrolet dealer’s
service department or another qualified
service center should perform.
“Section
D: Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants” lists some products
GM
recommends to help keep your vehicle
properly maintained. These products, or
their equivalents, should be used
whether you do the work yourself or
have it done.
“Section
E: Maintenance Record”
provides a place for you to record the
maintenance performed
on your vehicle.
Whenever any maintenance
is
performed, be sure to write it down in
this section. This will help you
determine when your next maintenance should be done. In addition, it is a good
idea to keep your maintenance receipts.
They may be needed to qualify your
vehicle for warranty repairs.
Section A: Scheduled
Maintenance Services
Using Your Maintenance
Schedule
This section tells you the maintenance
services you should have done and
when you should schedule them. Your
Chevrolet dealer knows your vehicle
best and wants you to be happy with
it.
If you go to your dealer for your service
needs, you’ll lmow that GM-trained and
supported service people will perform
the work using genuine GM parts.
These schedules are for vehicles that:
carry passengers and cargo within
recommended limits. You will find
these limits on your vehicle’s Tire-
Loading Information label. See
Loading Your Vehicle in the Index.
are driven on reasonable road
surfaces within legal driving limits.
use the recommended unleaded fuel.
See
Fuel in the Index.
Selecting the Right Schedule
First you’ll need to decide which of the
two schedules is right for your vehicle.
Here’s how to decide which schedule to
follow:

your driving, follow Schedule

miles
(16 ltm) and outside
temperatures remain below freezing.
When most trips include extended
idling and/or frequent low-speed
operation, as in stop-and-go traffic.
When operating in dusty areas.
Schedule I should also be followed if
the vehicle is used for delivery service,
police, taxi
or other commercial
applications.
* = An Emission Control Service.
t = The US. 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 vehicle useful life.
General Motors, however, urges that all
recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded in “Section
E:
Maintenance Record. ”
