If the vehicle is used mainly in one of
the following particularly severe
conditions:
– dusty roads
– short repetitive trips (less than 7-8
km / 4-5 mi) when the external
temperature is below zero.
– engine running frequently at idle
speed or without reaching steady
operating temperatures, replace the
engine oil more frequently than

When using the vehicle on dusty roads,

if you have any doubts about the
frequency for the engine oil and air
filter replacements, in the relation to
the vehicle's conditions of use.
