Changing the engine oil and filter

Change the engine oil and oil filter at every Oil
Service Plus/maintenance service. If oil
consumption should increase, determine the
cause and take necessary corrective steps.
Do not reset the service interval display if the
oil level is filled up or the oil is changed at
times other than the recommended intervals.

Replacing the air filter

Under normal dust conditions, the air filter
should be replaced during every second
maintenance service. Clean the air filter cap
and housing before removing the air filter.

Replacing the fuel filter

The fuel filter should be replaced during every
maintenance service.

Checking the diesel particle filter

The level of the diesel particle filter must be
checked during the fourth maintenance
service for the first time.
If the level of the diesel particle filter is still
below the limit value during the fourth
maintenance service, the diesel particle filter
level should be checked again at every Oil
Service Plus or maintenance service.
If the level of the diesel particle filter is above
the limit value, the diesel particle filter should
be replaced.
Once the new diesel particle filter has been
installed, the check cycle begins again after
the fourth maintenance service.

Emptying and refilling DEF

Fill up the DEF at every Oil Service Plus.
