MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change
indicator system. The oil change indicator system will
remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.

Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change
indicator message will illuminate in the instrument clus-
ter. This means that an engine oil and engine oil filter
change is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions
such as frequent short-trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or
cold ambient temperatures, and E85 fuel usage will
influence when the “Change Oil” or “Oil Change Re-
quired” message is displayed. Severe Operating Condi-
tions can cause the change oil message to illuminate as
early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset. Have your
vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500
miles (805 km).

The Wrench Warning Light may appear in the cluster as
a service reminder when vehicle maintenance is required,
according to the scheduled maintenance mileage. The
maintenance schedule intervals are set by the manufac-
turer. Failure to have them carried out may void your
New Vehicle Warranty.

NOTE:

The actual interval for changing the oil and

replacing the engine oil filter depends on the vehicle
usage conditions and is signalled by the warning light or
message (if present) on the instrument panel or every 12
months.

Severe Duty All Models

In addition, if your vehicle is used under demanding
conditions, including:

• On the track
• On dusty roads

312

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

• Short, repeated trips (less than 4-5 miles or 7-8 km) at

sub-zero temperatures

• Allowing the engine to idle for extended periods of

time

• Driving for long distances at low speeds
• Allowing the vehicle to sit for long periods of inactiv-

ity

Under any of the above circumstances, the following
checks need to be performed more frequently than indi-
cated in the Maintenance Schedule:

• Check front and rear disc brake pad condition and

wear

• Check cleanliness of tailgate locks.
• Check cleanliness and lubrication of chassis and steer-

ing linkage

• Visually inspect condition of: engine, gearbox, trans-

mission, pipes and hoses (exhaust - fuel system -
brakes) and rubber elements (gaiters - sleeves - bushes
- etc.)

• Check battery charge and battery fluid level (electro-

lyte)

• Visually inspect condition of the auxiliary drive belts
• Check and, if necessary, change engine oil and replace

oil filter

• Check and, if necessary, replace air cleaner

Using the car on track should be regarded as an excep-
tion. The car has been designed and produced for road
use.
