Special service requirements
The prescribed service interval is based on nor‐
mal operation of the vehicle. Maintenance work
will need to be performed more often than
specified if the vehicle is operated under ardu‐
ous conditions or increased loads, for example:
R
regular city driving with frequent intermedi‐
ate stops.
R
if the vehicle is primarily used for short-dis‐
tance driving.
R
for frequent operation in mountainous terrain
or on poor road surfaces.
R
if the engine is often left idling for long peri‐
ods.
R
in particularly dusty conditions and/or if air-
recirculation mode is frequently used.
In these or similar operating conditions, have the
interior air filter, engine air cleaner, engine oil, oil
filter etc. changed more frequently. The tires
must be checked more frequently if the vehicle
is operated under increased loads. Further infor‐
mation can be obtained at a qualified specialist
workshop.
