How
This
Section
is
Organized
v
The remainder
of
this
section
is
divided into five parts:
“Part
A:
Scheduled
MaintenanceServices” shows
what to have done and
how
often. Some of
these
services can be complex,
so
unless
you
are
technically
qualified
and
have
the
necessary equipment,
you
should
let
your
dealer’s
service department or another qualified
service center do these
jobs.
Performing
maintenance
work
on
a
vehicle can
be dangerous.
In
trying
to
do
some
jobs,
you
can
be
seriously
injured.
Do
your
own
maintenance
work only if you have
the
required
know-how
and
the
proper
tools and
equipment
for
the
job.
If
you
have
any
doubt,
have
a
qualified
technician
do
the
work.
If
you are skilled
enough
to
do some work
on
your
vehicle,
you
will
probably
want to get
the
service
information
GM
publishes. See “Service
and
Owner
Publications’’
in
the
Index.
“Part
B:
Owner
Checks
and Services”
tells
you
what
should
be
checked
whenever
you
stop for fuel.
It
also
explains what
you
can
easily do
to
help keep your
vehicle
in
good
condition.
“Part
C:
Periodic
Maintenance Inspections?’
explains important
inspections
that
your
GM
dealer’s
service
department or another
qualified
service center
should
perform.
“Part
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.
“Part
E:
Maintenance Record’’ provides a place for
you
to
record
the
maintenance
performed
on
your
vehicle. Whenever any
maintenance
is
performed,
be
sure
to
write
it
down
in
this
part. 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.
