Symbols used:

R: Replace

I: Inspection

(R) or (I): Recommended service for safe vehicle operation.

NOTE:

1. This inspection is not required to maintain emission warranty eligibility and it dose not affect the manufacturer's obligations under EPA's in-use compliance program.

2. When the vehicle is used in extremely dusty conditions, the air cleaner element should be replaced more often.

3. ATF filter needs replacement, when it has physically damaged or ATF leaked.

4. A tire should be replaced when the tread wear indicator appears as a solid band across the tread. The indicators appear when the remaining tread has been worn to 1.6 mm (0.063 in) or less.

5. For models with A/C filter.
