Using Maintenance Schedules

2007 Chevrolet Silverado Classic 1500 2WD V8-6.0LSECTION Using Maintenance Schedules


USING THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
We at General Motors want to help you keep your vehicle in good working condition. But we do not know exactly how you will drive it. You may drive very short distances only a few times a week. Or you may drive long distances all the time in very hot, dusty weather. You may use your vehicle in making deliveries. Or you may drive it to work, to do errands, or in many other ways.

Because of all the different ways people use their vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You may need more frequent checks and replacements. So please read the following and note how you drive. If you have any questions on how to keep your vehicle in good condition, see your GM Goodwrench� dealer.

This schedule is for vehicles that:
- carry passengers and cargo within recommended limits. You will find these limits on the Tire and Loading Information label.
- are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal driving limits.
- are driven off-road in the recommended manner.
- use the recommended fuel.
The services in Scheduled Maintenance should be performed when indicated. See Additional Required Services for further information.

CAUTION: 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.

Owner Checks and Services tells you what should be checked, when to check it, and what you can easily do to help keep your vehicle in good condition.

All parts should be replaced and all necessary repairs done before you or anyone else drives the vehicle.
