General information

Correct servicing is essential for ensuring long vehicle life under the best conditions.

For this reason, a series of checks and maintenance operations have to be carried out every 48,000 km (every 30,000 miles) or every 24 months.

Scheduled servicing does not, however, cover all the needs of the vehicle; even during the initial period, before the 48,000 km service and between one service and the next, ordinary care such as systematic fluid level checks with top-ups and tyre pressure checks remain necessary.

If your vehicle is used frequently for trailer towing, the interval between scheduled maintenance services must be reduced.

(*) Version for specific markets

(1) When the engine oil is changed for the first time, check the tension of the auxiliary drive belt.

(2) Version for specific markets

(3) Regardless of the mileage, the timing drive belt must be changed every 4 years for heavy-duty use (cold climates, town use, prolonged driving at low speed) or at least every 5 years.

(4) If the vehicle is equipped with a special air cleaner for dusty areas:

- every 20,000 km, check and clean the filter;

- every 40,000 km replace the filter

(5) The actual interval for changing the oil and replacing the engine oil filter depends on the car usage conditions and is signalled by the warning light or message (if present) or the instrument panel or, in any case, every 24 months.

(6) If the vehicle is mainly used around town, change the engine oil and filter every 12 months.
