RUNNING-IN
This vehicle is built using high-precision
manufacturing methods but the moving parts
of the engine must still bed in relative to one
another. The process occurs mainly in the first
3,000 km (2,000 miles) of operation. These
guide-lines should be followed during this
running-in period to obtain optimum
performance.
 Avoid frequent cold starts followed by
short-distance driving.
 Preferably take longer trips.
 Do not use full throttle during starts and
normal driving.
 Avoid continuous operation at high engine
speed and abrupt stops.
 Do not participate in track days, sports
driving schools or similar.
 Do not operate the vehicle at higher engine
speeds until the engine has reached
normal operating temperature.
 Avoid labouring the engine by operating
the engine in too high a gear at low speeds.
SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR
An upcoming service interval will be notified to
the driver via the Service interval indicator in
the Message centre. If the distance or time are
exceeded, the display will show a negative
value (-) to indicate that a service is overdue.
See 40, INSTRUMENT PANEL.
OWNER MAINTENANCE
Any significant or sudden drop in fluid
levels, or uneven tyre wear, should be
reported to a qualified technician
without delay.
In addition to the routine maintenance, a
number of simple checks must be carried out
more frequently.
DAILY CHECKS
 Operation of lamps, horn, direction
indicators, wipers, washers and warning
lamps.
 Operation of seat belts and brakes.
 Look for fluid deposits underneath the
vehicle that might indicate a leak.
Condensation drips from the air
conditioning are normal.
WEEKLY CHECKS
 Engine oil level.
 Engine coolant level.
 Brake/clutch fluid level.
 Power steering fluid level.
 Screen washer fluid level.
 Tyre pressures and condition.
 Operate air conditioning.
Note: The engine oil level should be checked
more frequently if the vehicle is driven for
prolonged periods at high speeds.
BRAKE PADS
It is recommended that brake pads should be
replaced when they reach a minimum
thickness of 3mm.
ARDUOUS DRIVING CONDITIONS
When a vehicle is operated in extremely
arduous conditions, more frequent attention
must be paid to servicing requirements.
Arduous driving conditions include:
 Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.
 Driving on rough and/or muddy roads.
 Frequent wading.
 Frequent driving at high speeds in high
ambient temperatures above 50ºC.
 Frequent driving in severe cold weather
below -40ºC.
