If none of them is true,change the oil every 7,500 miles (12 500 km) or 12 months - whichever comes first. Change the filter at the first change and at oil every other oil change after that. Engine Coolant Heater (Engine Block Heater): An engine coolantheater can be a big help if you have to park outside in very cold weather, 0"F (- 18"C) or colder. If your vehicle has this option, see "Engine Coolant Heater" in the Index. What to Do with Used Oil: Did you know that used engine oil contains elements that may be unhealthy for your skin andcould even cause cancer? Don't let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and water, or a good hand cleaner. Wash or properly throw away clothing or rags containing used engine oil. (See the manufacturer's warnings about the use and disposal of oil products.) Used oil can be a real threat to the environment. If you change your own oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil from the filter before disposal. Don't ever dispose of oil by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into sewers, or into streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by taking it to a place that collects used oil. If you have a problem properly disposing of your used oil, ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling center for help. 3 4 L32 (Code S .L air Cleaner tefer to the Maintenance Schedule to letermine when to replace the air filter. ;ee "Scheduled Maintenance Services" ir he Index. 191 ...
