⁽¹⁾	Inspect every 15,000 if used in dusty conditions.

⁽²⁾	Check at 60,000 and replace as necessary.

⁽³⁾	Replace at 60 months or 150,000 miles, whichever occurs first. If used under severe service conditions, replace every 50,000 miles.

⁽⁴⁾	Or every 60 months, whichever comes first. Use only GM Goodwrench DEX-COOL(R) or Havoline DEX-COOL(R) coolant or equivalent silicate-free coolant with a 50/50 mixture with drinkable water.

⁽⁵⁾	There is no service interval for fuel filter replacement. Only replace the fuel filter if filter is restricted. Inspect fuel tank internally and clean the fuel tank if a restricted fuel filter is found.

⁽⁶⁾	Periodic replacement is not required. It is not necessary to check transaxle fluid level. Check for leaks. A fluid leak is the only reason for fluid loss. Inspect the system and repair as needed.
