Lubrication service
The engine oil should be changed, on petrol engines, every 20,000 km or, irrespective of the mileage, every 12 months and for diesel engines every 10,000 km.
The oil filter should be replaced at the same time as the oil is changed.
For the correct and optimum operation of the engine, it is advisable to use the type of oil recommended in the tableon page 8.
If the vehicle is constantly subjected to heavy usage conditions (mainly town driving, journies in dusty areas, constant mountain driving, towing a trailer or caravan, particulary harsh climatic conditions, constant motorway driving at high speed etc.) the "Lubrication service" should be carried out at more frequent intervals. In the above mentioned conditions it is also advisable to carry out the "Planned maintenance prorgramme" and the "Intermediate checks" at more frequent intervals.
