ChiltonLibrary - Vehicle Maintenance

This tutorial shows you how to find maintenance schedules for the make and model of your choice within ChiltonLibrary.

[00:00:06.141]
Start by selecting the vehicle
you're interested in.

[00:00:09.730]
To do this, from the vehicle
selector on the home page,

[00:00:13.798]
use the dropdown menus to select
the vehicle year, make, and model

[00:00:26.898]
And then click Select.

[00:00:30.850]
Once you've selected a vehicle,
the available data for

[00:00:34.170]
that vehicle is displayed.

[00:00:37.500]
If maintenance information is
available click the maintenance link

[00:00:41.240]
to view maintenance schedules for
the vehicle you selected.

[00:00:45.350]
If this category does not appear for
the vehicle you selected, that means that

[00:00:49.740]
Chilton Library does not yet have this
information available for that vehicle.

[00:00:55.700]
Use the vehicle configuration filter
to select characteristics and

[00:01:00.350]
operating conditions for
the vehicle you're researching.

[00:01:04.110]
Start by selecting a sub model.

[00:01:08.452]
As you make selections, the menu is
updated to reflect valid selections for

[00:01:13.318]
your vehicle model such as fuel type,

[00:01:15.750]
number of cylinders, drive type,
body type and transmission type.

[00:01:22.234]
Note, you can only select
characteristics that are valid for

[00:01:25.438]
the vehicle you are researching.

[00:01:29.623]
Once you select an operating condition
you are shown the recommended maintenance

[00:01:33.702]
schedule for the vehicle configuration and
operating condition you specified.

[00:01:43.252]
To change the mileage interval, enter
a mileage number in the Enter Mileage

[00:01:48.248]
box to view the recommended service
interval for mileage entered.

[00:01:53.460]
Click the Look Back and
Look Ahead links to move backward or

[00:01:57.680]
forward to the next
recommended service interval.

[00:02:01.960]
Click the View Full Chart link if you
want to see the full maintenance chart

[00:02:06.380]
with all service internals.

[00:02:09.140]
Note, in some cases we may only
have the full chart for a vehicle.

[00:02:13.650]
When the full chart is
the only choice available,

[00:02:16.111]
it will automatically be displayed without
any selections required by the user.
