VEHICLE EMISSIONS CONTROL INFORMATION (VECI)
Emissions information appears on
the VECI decal on the engine valve
cover. This decal identifies engine
displacement and provides certain
engine specifications.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICES
Refer to your "Service Guide" for details of maintenance on your vehicle.
If you are using your vehicle in a manner in which it will remain
stationary (door to door service, taxi, etc.), then it is recommended that
you change the engine oil every 200 engine hours as opposed to a
mileage limit. Since most vehicles are not equipped with hourmeters, it
may be necessary for you to approximate your time and plan engine oil
and filter changes accordingly.
Any modification of the emissions control system could create liability
under federal law (U.S.) if made prior to sale and registration, under the
laws of some states if made thereafter. Further, federal law prohibits
vehicle manufacturers, dealers and other persons engaged in the
business of repairing, servicing, selling, leasing or trading motor vehicles
as well as fleet operations from knowingly removing or rendering an
emissions control system inoperative after sale and delivery to an
ultimate purchaser. In Canada, modifications of the emissions control
system could create liability under applicable federal or provincial laws.
