Doing Your Own Service
Work
{
WARNING
You can be injured and the vehicle
could be damaged if you try to do
service work on a vehicle without
knowing enough about it.
• Be sure you have sufficient
knowledge, experience, the
proper replacement parts, and
tools before attempting any
vehicle maintenance task.
• Be sure to use the proper nuts,
bolts, and other fasteners.
English and metric fasteners
can be easily confused. If the
wrong fasteners are used,
parts can later break or fall off.
You could be hurt.
If doing some of your own service
work, use the proper service manual.
It tells you much more about how to
service the vehicle than this manual
can. To order the proper service
manual, see Service Publications
Ordering Information on page 12-3.
This vehicle has an airbag system.
Before attempting to do your own
service work, see Airbag System
Check on page 2-38.
Keep a record with all parts receipts
and list the mileage and the date of
any service work performed.
