Doing Your Own Service Work - Chevrolet 2009 Kodiak Owner's Manual

Doing Your Own Service Work

CAUTION:
{
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 7-10.
This vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting to
do your own service work, see Servicing Your
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on page 1-58.
Keep a record with all parts receipts and list the mileage
and the date of any service work performed. See Part
D: Maintenance Record on page 6-33.
