Maintenance, replacement, or repair of emissions control devices and systems
may be done by any automotive repair establishment or individuals using parts
that are certified to EPA standards.
According to state and federal regulations, failure to perform maintenance on the

maintenance main items marked with # will not void your emissions warranties.

However, all maintenance services should be performed in accordance with the

intervals indicated by the multi-information display.

Maintenance Minder Service Codes

These codes indicate what services are due on your vehicle.
