How
This
Section
is Organized
The remainder
of
this
sectionis divided
into
five
parts:
“Part
A:
Scheduled Maintenance Services”
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 and when.
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 Chevrolet 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.
