Normal Vehicle Use
These schedules are for vehicles that:

• | Are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits. |
• | Use the recommended fuel. |
Selecting the Right Maintenance Schedule
Determine which of the two schedules is right for this vehicle. Refer
to the definitions of maintenance schedules below.
Important: Additional maintenance recommendations are in this subsection. Also
refer to
Owner Checks and Services
and
Periodic Maintenance Inspection
.
Short Trip/City Maintenance Definition
Follow the Short Trip/City Maintenance Schedule if any one of these
conditions is true for the vehicle:
• | Most trips are less than 8-16 km (5-10 mi).
This is particularly important when outside temperatures are below freezing. |
• | Most trips include extensive idling and/or low speed operation
(such as door-to-door delivery and frequent driving in stop-and-go traffic). |
• | Most trips are through dusty areas. |
• | The vehicle is used to frequently tow a trailer or a carrier is
used on top of the vehicle. |
• | If the vehicle is used for delivery service, police, taxi or other
commercial application. |
Long Trip/Highway Maintenance Definition
Follow this maintenance schedule only if none of the conditions from
the Short Trip/City Maintenance Schedule is true.
Maintenance Schedule Intervals
The schedule lists maintenance procedures for intervals up to 166 000
km (100,000 mi). Repeat the maintenance procedures at the
same intervals after 166 000 km (100,000 mi).
Repeat the maintenance procedure that is required at 240 000
km (150,000 mi) after another interval of 240 000 km (150,000 mi).

Notes
[Dagger] The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the California
Air Resources Board has determined that failure to perform this maintenance
item will not nullify the emissions warranty nor limit recall
liability prior to the completion of the vehicle's useful
life. We, however, urge that ALL recommended maintenance
services be performed and recorded at the indicated proper
intervals.
# Failure to follow the maintenance procedure as described may
result in a broken timing belt and cause severe engine damage. It is important
to use only genuine GM parts when replacing the timing belt.
Refer to
Timing Belt Replacement
.
+ A good time to check the brakes is during a tire rotation.
