Footnotes

[The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California Air Resources Board has determined that the failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to the completion of the vehicle's useful life. We, however, urge that all recommended maintenance services be performed at the indicated intervals and the maintenance be recorded.

*If your vehicle has the GM Oil Life Systemt, the monitor will show you when to change the oil --usually between 3,000 miles (5 000 km) and 7,500 miles

(12 500 km) since your last oil change. Under severe conditions, the indicator may come on before 3,000 miles (5 000 km). Never drive your vehicle more than 7,500 miles (12 500 km) or 12 months, (whichever occurs first), without an oil change.

The system won't detect dust in the oil. So if you drive in a dusty area be sure to change your oil every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or sooner if the CHANGE OIL SOON message appears. Remember to reset the Oil Life Monitor when the oil has been changed. For more information, see ªOil Life Systemº in the Index.

+A good time to check your brakes is during tire rotation. See ªBrake System Inspectionº under ªPeriodic Maintenance Inspectionsº in Part C of this schedule.
