your vehicle serviced by your authorized

vice System).
Failure to have the vehicle maintained in 
accordance with the Service Booklet at the 
designated times /mileage called for by

on your driving habits. A gentle driving 
style, moderate engine speeds and the 
avoidance of short-distance trips will 
lengthen the interval between services.
