:If the message ‘‘SERVICE DUE NOW’’ does not appear more than 12 months
after the display is reset, change the engine oil every year.
Inspect idle speed every 160,000 miles (256,000 km).
Adjust the valves during services A, B, 1, 2, or 3 only if they are noisy. Independent of the maintenance messages on the multi-information
display, replace the brake fluid every 3 years.
See information on maintenance and emissions warranty in the first column

Maintenance Sub Items
Rotate tires
Replace air cleaner element If you drive in dusty conditions, replace every 15,000
miles (24,000 km).
Replace dust and pollen filter If you drive primarily in urban areas that have high
concentrations of soot in the air from industry and
from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000
miles (24,000 km).
Inspect drive belt
Replace transmission fluid Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle
speeds or trailer towing results in higher
transmission temperatures. This requires
transmission fluid changes more frequently than
recommended by the maintenance minder. If you
regularly drive your vehicle under these conditions,
have the transmission fluid changed at 60,000 miles
(100,000 km), then every 30,000 miles (48,000 km).
(For A/T only.)
Replace spark plugs
Replace timing belt and inspect water pump
(6-cylinder models only) If you drive regularly in very high temperatures (over
110°F, 43°C), in very low temperatures (under 20°F,29°C), or towing a trailer, replace every 60,000
miles (U.S.)/100,000 km (Canada).
Inspect valve clearance
Replace engine coolant
Maintenance Main Items
