7-18 Footnotes
= 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.
