Maintenance  Schedule 
I Schedule I Definition I 
Follow Maintenance Schedule I if any one of these  is 
true  for your vehicle: 
Most trips are less than 5 to 10 miles (8 to 16 km). 
This  is particularly  important  when outside 
temperatures  are below  freezing. 
0 Most trips include  extensive  idling (such as frequent 
driving 
in stop and  go traffic). 
0 Most trips  are through dusty areas. 
You frecp~ently  tow a trailer  or use  a carrier on top  of 
your vehicle.  (With some models,  you should never 
tow 
a trailer.  See “Towing a Trailer“ in the Index.) 
Schedule 
I should also  be followed if the vehicle  is used 
for  delivery  service, police, taxi, or other commercial 
application.
