Note: The recommended service intervals must not be exceeded by more than 2000 km or 2 months.
If the vehicle is primarily used in severe conditions, as described below, then more frequent maintenance is required for some items in the maintenance plan.
1. Road conditions.
a) Operation on bumpy, muddy, snow-covered or water-covered roads, or operation in hilly terrain.
b) Operation on dusty roads.
c) Operation on roads sprinkled with salt or other anti-icing agents.
d) Operation at low ambient temperatures (temperature constantly below -20°C).
2. Driving conditions.
a) Towing a trailer or using a roof rack on a vehicle.
b) Repeated short trips of less than 10 km at low ambient temperatures.
c) Long periods of idling and/or driving at low speed over long distances.
d) Regular driving at high speed (more than 80% of the vehicle's maximum speed for more than 2 hours).
Table. Maintenance intervals.
Note: P - check and/or adjust (repair or replace if necessary); 3 - replacement; C - lubrication; M3 - tightening to the specified torque.
1. When operating in difficult conditions, perform maintenance twice as often.
2. When operating on dusty roads, check every 2500 km (or 3 months).
3. Additional checks, the implementation of which is not mandatory, but only recommended.
4. We recommend replacing the component after it actually fails.
