Rotation of New Tires
To maintain ride, handling, and performance of the
vehicle, it is important that the first rotation service
for new tires be performed when they have 8 000 to
13 000 km (5,000 to 8,000 miles). SeeTire Inspection
and Rotation on page 6‑69.
Scheduled Maintenance
When the Change Oil Soon Message
Displays
Change engine oil and filter. See Engine Oilon
page 6‑19. An Emission Control Service.
When the Change Oil Soon message displays, service
is required for the vehicle as soon as possible, within
the next 1 000 km/600 miles. If driving under the best
conditions, the engine oil life system might not indicate
the need for vehicle service for more than a year. The
engine oil and filter must be changed at least once a
year and the oil life system must be reset. Your dealer/retailer has trained service technicians
who will perform this work and reset the system. If the
engine oil life system is reset accidentally, service the
vehicle within 5 000 km/3,000 miles since the last
service. Reset the oil life system whenever the oil is
changed. See
Engine Oil Life System on page 6‑23.
When the Change Oil Soon message displays, certain
services, checks, and inspections are required. The
services described for Maintenance Ishould be
performed at every engine oil change. The services
described for Maintenance IIshould be
performed when:
.Maintenance Iwas performed the last time the
engine oil was changed.
.It has been 10 months or more since the Change
Oil Soon message has displayed or since the last
service.
7-3
MaintenanceI
.Change engine oil and filter. See Engine Oilon
page 6‑19. An Emission Control Service.
.Engine coolant level check. See Engine Coolanton page 6‑29.
.Windshield washer fluid level check. See
Windshield Washer Fluid on page 6‑36.
.Tire inflation check. SeeInflation - Tire Pressureon page 6‑63.
.Tire wear inspection. See Tire Inspection and
Rotation on page 6‑69.
.Rotate tires. See Tire Inspection and Rotationon
page 6‑69.
.Fluids visual leak check (or every 12 months,
whichever occurs first). A leak in any system
must be repaired and the fluid level checked.
.2.2L and 2.4L Engines: Engine air cleaner filter
inspection (vehicles driven in dusty conditions
only). See Engine Air Cleaner/Filter on page 6‑25.
.2.0L Engine: Engine air cleaner filter inspection.
SeeEngine Air Cleaner/Filter on page 6‑25.
.Brake system inspection (or every 12 months,
whichever occurs first).
Maintenance II
.Perform all services described in Maintenance I.
.Steering and suspension inspection. Visual
inspection for damaged, loose, or missing parts or
signs of wear.
.Engine cooling system inspection. Visual
inspection of hoses, pipes, fittings, and clamps
and replacement, if needed.
.Windshield wiper blade inspection for wear,
cracking, or contamination and windshield and
wiper blade cleaning, if contaminated. See
Windshield and Wiper Blades
on page 6‑115. Worn
or damaged wiper blade replacement. See
Windshield Wiper Blade Replacement
on
page 6‑53.
.Body hinges and latches, key lock cylinders, and
rear compartment hinges lubrication. See
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants
on
page 7‑10. More frequent lubrication may be
required when vehicle is exposed to a corrosive
environment. Applying silicone grease on
weatherstrips with a clean cloth makes them last
longer, seal better, and not stick or squeak.
.Restraint system component check. See Checking
the Restraint Systems on page 2‑78.
7-4
.Passenger compartment air filter replacement (or
every 12 months, whichever occurs first). More
frequent replacement may be required if vehicle is
driven regularly under dusty conditions.
