Engine Oil and Oil Filter Replacement
Make sure use the API grade engine oil, SJ grade engine oil or
above.
Engine Oil Viscosity
Note
Using engine oil other than the recommended ones will
damage the engine.
Engine oil viscosity (consistency) will affect the fuel economy
and operations in cold weather. The lower the engine oil
viscosity, the better the vehicle's fuel economy and the better
cold weather performance. In high temperatures, engine oil
with higher viscosity must be used to achieve the desired
lubricating effect. Using engine oil other than the
recommended ones will damage the engine.
Cooling System Service
Drain, rinse the cooling system and refill the new engine
coolant. Refer to
Recommended Oil and Lubricants
.
Fuel Filter Replacement
Every
Replace fuel filter every 30,000 km. The fuel filter is located at
the bottom of the rear end of the vehicle, close to the canister.
Air Cleaner Filter Replacement
Every
Replace air cleaner filter every 15,000 km. Under dusty
conditions, reduce the air filter replacement intervals.
Spark Plug Replacement
Use only genuine Geely parts for replacements. Refer to
Normal Driving Condition Service Schedule
.
Spark Plug Wire Replacement
Clean up the spark plug wire and inspect for burnt, cracking or
other damage. Make sure the spark plug wire is installed
directly on the ignition system module and the spark plug. If
necessary, replace the spark plug wire.
Brake System Service
Inspect the disc brake pads every 7,500 km or 7 months.
Double-check the thickness of brake pads. If the brake pads
can not last until the next scheduled service, they should be
replaced. Check the brake fluid tank lid vent to ensure that
there is no dirt and the path is unblocked.
Differential Service
Inspect differential oil every 20,000 km or 12 months. Replace
differential oil every 40,000 km or 24 months.
Tire and Wheel Inspection and Tire Rotation
Inspect whether there is abnormal tire wear or damage. To
make tire wear evenly and to extend tire life, rotate the tire
positions. If there is abnormal or premature wear, wheel
alignment should be checked, and then check the wheels for
damage.
1.4.2.5 Tire Rotation Description
Note
If there is obviously uneven tire wear, the cause for this
should be eliminated.
When rotating the tires, it is recommended at the same
time check the tire and wheel assembly balancing.
1. It is recommended that tire rotation be carried out when
brake inspections are performed, as per the service schedule
outlined in the Owner's Handbook, or when: Difference in tread
depth between front and rear tires exceed 1.55 mm(0.08 in).
2. Lifting and support vehicles. Refer to
Note
Note the location of each tire and wheel assembly in
relation to the original position on the vehicle.
3. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. Refer to
.
4. Rotate the tire and wheel assemblies as shown in the
following diagrams.
Note
For 'Non Directional' tires carry out rotation as shown
below.
