"Section
C:
Periodic Maintenance
Inspections" explains important
inspections that your Pontiac dealer's
service department or another qualified
service center should perform.
"Section D: Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants" lists some products GM
recommends to help keep your vehicle
properly maintained. These products, or
their equivalents, should be used whether
you do the work yourself or have it done.
"Section E: Maintenance Record"
provides a place for you to record the
maintenance perfowed on your vehicle.
Whenever any maintenance is performed,
be
sure
to write it down in this section.
This will help you determine when your
next maintenance should be done. In
addition, it is a good idea to keep your
maintenance receipts. They may be
needed to qualify your vehicle for
warranty repairs.
Using
Your
Maintenance
Schedules
This section tells you the maintenance
services you should have done and when
you should schedule them. Your Pontiac
dealer knows your vehicle best and wants
you to be happy with it.
If
you go to your
dealer for your service needs, you'll know
that GM-trained and supported service
people will perform the work using
genuine GM parts.
These schedules are for vehicles that:
carry passengers and cargo within
recommended limits. You will find
these limits on your vehicle's
Tire-Loading Information label. See
"Loading Your Vehicle" in the Index.
are driven on reasonable road surfaces
within legal driving limits.
use the recommended unleaded fuel.
See "Fuel" in the Index.
