nance schedule will give optimum results.

• If the vehicle is often used in demanding condi-
tions, for example, on unpaved roads, near the
coast, or in cold regions, lubricants should be
applied and replaced more quickly than speci-
fied in the maintenance schedule.
Consult an authorized dealer for the mainte-
nance schedule appropriate to your vehicle
operating conditions.
• Use only the lubricants specified. P. 14-3
• Special lubricants must be used if the vehicle is

details, refer to an authorized dealer.
