Service Work
{Warning
It can be dangerous to work on
your vehicle if you do not have
the proper knowledge, service
manual, tools, or parts. Always
follow owner manual procedures
and consult the service manual
for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
If doing some of your own service
work, use the proper service

than this manual can. To order the
proper service manual, see Service
Publications Ordering Information

Before attempting to do your own
service work, see

Keep a record with all parts receipts
and list the mileage and the date of
any service work performed. See
Maintenance Records on
