Maintenance and do-it-yourself
Care of wheels
●
Wash the wheels when
washing the vehicle to maintain
their appearance.
●
Clean the inner side of the
wheels when the wheel is
changed or the underside of the
vehicle is washed.
●
Do
not
use
abrasive
cleaners when washing the
wheels.
●
Inspect
wheel
rims
regularly for dents or corrosion.
This
may
cause
loss
of
pressure or damage the tire
bead.
●
ParsKhodro recommends
that the road wheels be waxed
to protect against road salt in
areas where it is used during
winter.
Tire chains
Use of tire chains is prohibited
according to location. Check the
local laws before installing tire
chains. When installing tire chains,
make sure they are of proper size
for the tires on your vehicle and
are installed according to the
chain manufacturer’s suggestions.
Use
chain
tensioners
when
recommended by the tire chain
manufacturer to ensure a tight fit.
Loose end links of the tire chain
must be secured or removed to
prevent the possibility of whipping
action damage to the fenders or
undercarriage. In addition, drive at
a reduced speed. Otherwise, your
vehicle may be damaged and/or
vehicle handling and performance
may be adversely affected.
Never install tire chains on a small
size spare tire.
Tire chains must be installed only
on the rear wheels and not on the
front wheels.
Do not drive with tire chains on
paved roads which are clear of
snow. Driving with chains in such
conditions can cause damage to
the various mechanisms of the
vehicle due to some overstress.
When driving on clear paved
roads, be sure to change to 2WD.
CLUTCH HOUSING
Checking water entry
Whenever you drive in deep water
or mud, check water entry in the
clutch housing by removing the
blind plug at the bottom of the
transmission case. After checking,
be sure to reinstall the plug.
