Under
adverse circumstances
some jobs will be required between these inter-
vals. This is especially true of
changing the engine oil
, when the vehicle is
constantly used for short journeys or th
e temperatures are very low; similarly,
the cleaning or substitution of the cartridge of the air f
ilter, the pollen and
dust filter and the checking and changing of the
drive belt when the vehicle
is used in areas with a lot of dust.If you use biodiesel fuel or fuel which
does not meet the DIN EN 590 standard,
you will have to clean the fuel filt
er every 15,000 km, and substitute it at
30,000 km. Some countries use diesel fuel with a high sulphur
content In these cases, an
oil change will be required after 7,500 km The Author
ised Service Centre will
inform you which countries use fuel with a high sulphur c
ontent.
The person responsible for the Authorised Service C
entre will inform you of
the need to carry out these jobs between the normal servic
e interval, taking
the conditions of use of the vehicle into considerati
on.
On the following pages, we have compiled information on what
is necessary
in each programmed inspection service The jobs
that are listed are appro-
priate for the technical requirements at the time of printin
g. Therefore, they
may be modified hereafte
r for technical reasons.
Your Authorised Service Centre will inform you on
this point, as well as any
need for additional services, and any work required by la
w.
Your Authorised Service Centre will inform you of th
e cost (material and
labour) for each of the inspection and maintenanc
e services contained in this
plan.

Additional operationsCost of additional operationsBesides the oil change service and the inspection ser
vice, there are other
maintenance jobs that are related to the condition
s of use and the equip-
ment. The need for these additional operations will de
pend on the age and
mileage of the vehicle, to ensure good performance. Y
