2007 Liberty KJ Factory Service Manual 0 - LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE

DESCRIPTION

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES - GASOLINE ENGINES

There are two maintenance schedules that show the required service for your vehicle.

First is Schedule "B". It is for vehicles that are operated under the conditions that are listed below and at the beginning of the schedule.

NOTE: If ANY of these apply to you then change your engine oil every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or 3 months, whichever comes first and follow “Schedule B” of the “Maintenance Schedules” section of this manual.

NOTE: If ANY of these apply to you then flush and replace your engine coolant/anti-freeze every 102,000 miles (170 000 km) or 60 months, whichever comes first, and follow “Schedule B” of the “Maintenance Schedules” section of this manual.

NOTE: Most vehicles are operated under the conditions listed for Schedule “B.”

Second is Schedule “A”. It is for vehicles that are not operated under any of the conditions listed under Schedule “B.”

Use the schedule that best describes your driving conditions. Where time and mileage are listed, follow the interval that occurs first.

CAUTION: Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the vehicle.


Schedule “B”

Follow schedule “B” if you usually operate your vehicle under one or more of the following conditions.

  • Day or night temperatures are below 32°F (0°C)
  • Stop and go driving
  • Excessive engine idling
  • Driving in dusty conditions
  • Short trips of less than 10 miles (16.2 km)
  • More than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather, above 90°F (32°C)
  • Trailer towing
  • Taxi, police, or delivery service (commercial service)
  • Off-road or desert driving
  • If equipped for and operated with E-85 (ethanol) fuel.

NOTE: If ANY of these apply to you then change your engine oil every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or 3 months, whichever comes first and follow “Schedule B” of the “Maintenance Schedules” section of this manual.

NOTE: If ANY of these apply to you then flush and replace your engine coolant/anti-freeze every 102,000 miles (170 000 km) or 60 months, whichever comes first, and follow “Schedule B” of the “Maintenance Schedules” section of this manual.

Inspection and service should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. Retain all receipts.

† Applies only if vehicle is used for frequent trailer towing, or fleet/commercial service.

♦ This maintenance is recommended by the manufacturer to the owner, but it is not required to maintain emissions warranty.

‡Off-highway operation, trailer towing, taxi, limousine, bus, snow plowing, or other types of commercial service or prolonged operation with heavy loading, especially in hot weather, require front and rear axle service indicated with a ‡ in Schedule “B”. Perform these services if the vehicle is usually operated under these conditions.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES - GASOLINE ENGINES - EXPORT

There are two maintenance schedules that show the required service for your vehicle.

First is Schedule “A”. It is for vehicles that are not operated under any of the conditions listed under Schedule “B.”

Second is Schedule "B". It is for vehicles that are operated under the conditions that are listed below and at the beginning of the schedule.

  • Day or night temperatures are below 0°C (32°F).
  • Stop and go driving.
  • Extensive engine idling.
  • Driving in dusty conditions.
  • Short trips of less than 16.2 km (10 miles).
  • More than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather, above 32°C (90°F).
  • Trailer towing.
  • Taxi, police, or delivery service (commercial service).
  • Off-road or desert driving.
Most vehicles are operated under the conditions listed for Schedule “B.”

Use the schedule that best describes your driving conditions. Where time and mileage are listed, follow the interval that occurs first.

CAUTION: Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the vehicle.

    At Each Stop for Fuel

  • Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
  • Check the windshield washer solvent, add as required.

    Once a Month

  • Check the tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
  • Inspect the battery, and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
  • Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, and transmission, and add as needed.
  • Check all lights and all other electrical items for correct operation.

    At Each Oil Change

  • Change the engine oil filter.
  • Inspect the exhaust system.
  • Inspect brake hoses.
  • Check the coolant level, hoses, and clamps.
  • Inspect manual transmission fluid level — if equipped.
  • After completion of off-road operation, the underside of the vehicle should be thoroughly inspected. Examine threaded fasteners for looseness.

♦ This maintenance is recommended by the manufacturer to the owner, but it is not required to maintain emissions warranty.

‡Off-highway operation, trailer towing, taxi, limousine, bus, snow plowing, or other types of commercial service or prolonged operation with heavy loading, especially in hot weather, require front and rear axle service indicated with a ‡ in Schedule “B”. Perform these services if the vehicle is usually operated under these conditions.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES - DIESEL ENGINES - EXPORT

There are two maintenance schedules that show the required service for your vehicle.

First is Schedule “A”. It is for vehicles that are not operated under any of the conditions listed under Schedule "B".

Second is Schedule “B”. It is for vehicles that are operated under the conditions that are listed below and at the beginning of the schedule.

  • Day or night temperatures are below 0°C (32°F).
  • Stop and go driving.
  • Extensive engine idling.
  • Driving in dusty conditions.
  • Short trips of less than 16.2 km (10 miles).
  • More than 50% of your driving is at sustained high speeds during hot weather, above 32°C (90°F).
  • Trailer towing.
  • Taxi, police, or delivery service (commercial service).
  • Off-road or desert driving.
Most vehicles are operated under the conditions listed for Schedule "B".

Use the schedule that best describes your driving conditions. Where time and mileage are listed, follow the interval that occurs first.

CAUTION: Failure to perform the required maintenance items may result in damage to the vehicle.

    At Each Stop for Fuel

  • Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the oil level while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
  • Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required.

    Once a Month

  • Check the tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
  • Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
  • Check the fluid levels of coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power steering and transmission and add as needed.
  • Check all lights and all other electrical items for correct operation.

    At Each Oil Change

  • Change the engine oil filter.
  • Inspect the exhaust system.
  • Inspect brake hoses.
  • Check the engine coolant/anti-freeze level, hoses, and clamps.
  • Inspect engine accessory drive belts. Replace as necessary.
  • Inspect for the presence of water in the fuel filter/water separator unit.

    Tire Rotation

  • Rotate the tires every 10 000 km (6,000 miles).
