(Maintenance Instructions)
Introduction
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 s manual
procedures and consult the service
manual for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
Your vehicle has been engineered and
manufactured to provide economical service.
However, it is the owner's responsibility to
see that the vehicle receives proper care and
maintenance to ensure high performance.
Quality GM service parts are available
through your GM dealer. If GM service parts
are not used, the owner must make sure
that the parts used are equivalent to GM
service parts.
As with any vehicle, care should be taken to
prevent being injured when performing
maintenance or repairs or making any
checks. Improper or incomplete service could
result in the vehicle not working properly,
which in turn, may result in personal injury
or damage to the vehicle or its equipment.
If you have any questions about performing
some service, consult your dealer or have
the service done by a skilled technician.
