Scheduled Maintenance - GMC 2002 Savana Van Owner's Manual

Scheduled Maintenance

Short Trip/City Definition
Follow the Short Trip/City Scheduled Maintenance if
any one of these conditions is true for your vehicle:
D
Most trips are less than 5 miles (8 km). This is
particularly important when outside temperatures
are below freezing.
D
Most trips include extensive idling (such as frequent
- -
driving in stop and go traffic).
D
You frequently tow a trailer or use a carrier on top
of your vehicle.
D
If the vehicle is used for delivery service, police,
taxi or other commercial application.
One of the reasons you should follow this schedule
if you operate your vehicle under any of these
conditions is that these conditions cause engine oil
to break down sooner.
