FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Use BS IV / unleaded petrol only.
The petrol should be 85 to 95 octane by research
method. Use recommended fuel additives for longer
life of engine components and lower maintenance.
Petrol mixed with ethanol will have impact on engine
components. Contact your TVS Motor Company
Authorised Main Dealer / Authorised Dealer for
usage.
Regular maintenance checks will save fuel and
ensure trouble-free, enjoyable and safe riding besides
keeping environment clean.
Spark plug
A dirty or defective spark plug leads to wastage of fuel
due to incomplete combustion. Clean and adjust the
spark plug only if necessary. Replace the spark plug
every 12000 kms (1 year). Always use recommended
spark plug only.
Air cleaner element
A dirty air cleaner element restricts airflow and
increases fuel consumption. Replace the element
every 12000 kms.
Since viscous filter is used in your scooter it is not
recommended to clean the filter. Replace the filter
incase of any abnormalities.
Engine oil and Transmission oil
Dirty or less engine oil increases friction between
various parts of the engine and reduces the engine
life, thereby increases the fuel consumption.
Running with low transmission oil will cause damage
to the gears and bearings.
Caution
Note
Never mix oil in petrol in the fuel tank. Always fill fuel
from the reputed and reliable fuel stations.
Use fuel additives in petrol as recommended by the
respective manufacturer for low carbon deposition.
