road conditions permit it to be done safely.
Programming individual settings in the system can
only be made while the vehicle is at standstill.

days not counted by the FSS can be added by your

The interval between services is determined by the type
of driving for which the vehicle is used. For example,
driving at extreme speeds, and cold starts combined
wi t h short di stan ce d r ivi ng in which the e ngin e d oes not
reach operating normal temperature, reduce the interval
between services.
