How This Section Is Organized - Chevrolet 2009 Kodiak Owner's Manual

How This Section is Organized

This maintenance schedule is divided into four parts:
"Part A: Scheduled Maintenance Services" explains
what to have done and how often. Some of these
services can be complex, so unless you are technically
qualified and have the necessary equipment, let
your dealer/retailer do these jobs.
Your dealer/retailer has trained and supported service
people that will perform the work using genuine parts.
CAUTION:
{
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be
dangerous. In trying to do some jobs, you can be
seriously injured. Do your own maintenance work
only if you have the required know-how and the
proper tools and equipment for the job. If you have
any doubt, have a qualified technician do the work.
See Doing Your Own Service Work on page 5-5.
To purchase service information, see Service
Publications Ordering Information on page 7-10.
"Part B: Owner Checks and Services" tells what
should be checked and when. It also explains what can
easily be done to keep the vehicle in good condition.
"Part C: Recommended Fluids and Lubricants" lists
some recommended products necessary to help
keep the vehicle properly maintained. These products,
or their equivalents, should be used whether you do the
work yourself or have it done.
"Part D: Maintenance Record" is a place to record
and keep track of the maintenance performed on
the vehicle. Keep the maintenance receipts. They may
be needed to qualify the vehicle for warranty repairs.
