How
This
Section
is
Organized
The remainder of this section is 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 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.
