= 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.
(1) = If your vehicle has an Allison automatic
transmission, your GM Owner's Manual is
supplemented by an Allison Transmission Operator's
Manual. Always refer to these manuals for related
maintenance services.
(2) = Check the fluid level in the manual transmission.
(3) = An Emission Control Service.
(4) = A Noise Emission Control Device.
(5) = Applies only to vehicles sold in the United States.
(6) = Check fluid level in brake master cylinder, clutch
master cylinder (if equipped), power steering pump,
axle, transmission and hydraulic spring parking brake
pump (if equipped). A low fluid level in the brake
master cylinder can indicate worn brake linings and
should be checked accordingly.(7) = Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook
-up,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake
pads for wear and rotors for surface condition. Check
brake pedal for excessive free play or travel (or every
6 months, whichever occurs first) and have serviced if
needed. Check brakes more often if driving habits and
conditions result in frequent braking.
(8) = Inspect hydraulic parking brake drum and linings
for wear or cracks and check linkage and adjustment.
Check spring brake actuator and pump for leaks.
Note: The spring brake section of the actuator is
non
-serviceable.
(9) = This vehicle has an Engine Oil Life Monitor. This
monitor will show you when to change the engine oil
and filter
-- 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
without an oil and filter change.
The system won't detect dust in the oil. So if you drive
in a dusty area, be sure to change your oil and filter
every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or sooner if the Change
Oil Light comes on. Remember to reset the Oil Life
Monitor whenever the oil is changed. For more
information, see ªChange Oil Lightº in the Index.

(25) = Check thermostatically controlled air cleaner
installation to make certain that all ducts are connected and
correctly installed. Also, check valve for proper operation.
(26) = Evaporative Control System Service (if equipped):
Check all fuel and vapor lines and hoses for proper
connections and correct routing (or every 24 months,
whichever occurs first). Replace parts as needed.
(27) = Replace air cleaner filter (or every 24 months,
whichever occurs first). Replace filter more often if
driving in dusty conditions. Ask your dealer for the
proper replacement intervals for your driving conditions.
(28) = Replace spark plugs. Inspect wires for damage.
Check the wire boot and boot heat shield fit at spark
plugs and coil. Replace parts as needed.
(30) = Check the fuel tank, fuel cap and fuel lines for
damage which could cause leakage. Inspect fuel cap for
correct sealing ability and any indications of damage.
Check fuel cap gasket for even filler neck imprint.
Replace parts as needed.
(31) = Check EGR system as described in the service
manual. See ªService and Owner Publicationsº in the Index.
(32) = Inspect Electronic Vacuum Regulator Valve
(EVRV) filter for excessive contamination or plugging.
If needed, clean filter with solution of soap and water,
let dry and install.(33) = Check the PCV system for proper operation and
clean PCV valve. Replace hoses as needed.
(34) = Replace PCV valve and blow out the PCV valve
hose with compressed air. Replace hoses as needed.
(35) = Drain, flush and refill cooling system. See
ªRecommended Fluids and Lubricantsº in the Index for
what to use. Inspect hoses. Clean radiator, condenser,
pressure cap and neck. Pressure test cooling system and
pressure cap. For Caterpillar
 diesel engines, always refer
to the Caterpillar Diesel Engine Operation & Maintenance
Manual for coolant recommendations and change intervals.
(37) = Rear axle service: Change the lubricant. See
ªRecommended Fluids and Lubricantsº in the Index.
(38) = Front axle service: Re
-pack upper kingpin
roller bearing.
(39) = Air brake service:

Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook
-up,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect drum
brake linings for wear or cracks. Inspect other brake
parts at each wheel, including drums, wheel cylinders
and piston heat shields and boots. Check brake pedal
for excessive free play or travel (or every 6 months,
whichever occurs first) and have serviced if needed.
Check brakes more often if driving habits and
conditions result in frequent braking.
