Perform Service Indicator
Your vehicle will require emissions maintenance at a set
interval. To help remind you when this maintenance is
due, the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)will display “Perform Service”. When the “Perform Ser-
vice” message is displayed on the EVIC it is necessary to
have the emissions maintenance performed. Emissions
maintenance includes replacing the Closed Crankcase
Ventilation (CCV) filter element, cleaning or replacement
of the EGR Cooler, and cleaning or replacement of the
EGR Valve. The procedure for clearing and resetting the
Perform Serviceindicator message is located in the
appropriate Service Information.
