0B-2 GENERAL INFORMATION
MAINTENANCE AND
LUBRICATION
NORMAL VEHICLE USE
The maintenance instructions contained in the
maintenance schedule are based on the assumption
that the vehicle will be used for the following reasons:
•
To carry passengers and cargo within the limitation
of the tire inflation prassure. Refer to "Tire and
Wheel" in section 2E.
•
To be driven on reasonable road surfaces and
within legal operating limits.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE SERVICES
The services listed in the maintenance schedule are
further explained below. When the following
maintenance services are performed, make sure all
the parts are replaced and all the necessary repairs
are done before driving the vehicle. Always use the
proper fluid and lubricants.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter Change
Always use above the API SH grade or recommended
engine oil.
Engine Oil Viscosity
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel
economy and cold weather operation. Lower viscosity
engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance; however, higher temperature
weather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils
for satisfactory lubrication. Using oils of any viscosity
other than those viscosities recommended could result
in engine damage.
Cooling System Service
Drain, flush and refill the system with new coolant.
Refer to "Recommended Fluids And Lubricants" in
this section.

Tire and Wheel Inspection and Rotation
Check the tires for abnormal wear or damage. To

tires. If irregular or premature wear exists, check the
wheel alignment and check for damaged wheels. While
the tires and wheels are removed, inspect the brakes.
