I think that's the 50k mile service, if I'm not mistaking. A quick Google search might find the answer you're looking for.

Also, look in the manual. I'm pretty sure there is information about what 'Service B' consists of.

Service B doesn't tell you anything. It means it needs two hours of service (A=1, B=2). There's a way to find out exactly what it wants (do a search, as I don't recall), but two hours is a pretty small service.

There is a list of what the service B entails..usually every 10k miles you get a service, first A, then B. The A is an oil change, and a few checks. The B is an oil change, checks (Like if the headlamps work..but more importantly the drivetrain, suspension, stuff like that) - the dust filters are also changed, along with the windshield wipers.

There are a lot of discussions on the B service, so take a look.
