If
none
of
them
is
true,
use
the
long triphighway
maintenance
schedule.
Change
the oil and
filter
every
7,500
miles
(12
500
km)
or
12
months
--
whichever
occurs
first.
Driving
a
vehicle
with
a
fully
warmed
engine
under
highway
conditions
causes
engine
oil
to
break
down
slower.
What
to
Do
with
Used
Oil
Did
you
know
that
used
engine
oil contains
certain
elements
that
may
be
unhealthy
for your
skin
and
could
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
retailer,
a
service
station
or a
local
recycling
center for help.
