Additional servicing
Additional operations
Additional w ork is work that is not req uired
every service but can be performed in
conjunction with a regular service.
Time allowances for such w ork are not
included in the scope of regular services
and will b e charged for add itionally. It is
more economic if these operations are
performed as part of a sc heduled service
than having them performed separately.
Severe operating conditions o
Operating conditions are classified as
severe when one or more of the following
occurs frequently:
z cold starts,
z stop and go,
z trailer/caravan towing ,
z gradients and/or high altitudes,
z poor road surfaces,
z sand a nd dust,
z extreme temperature fluctuations.
Police vehicles, taxis and driving school
vehicles are also cla ssified as operating
under severe conditions.
U n d e r se ver e o p e ra t in g c o nd it i o n s , i t m a y
be necessary to ha ve certain scheduled
service work done more frequently tha n the
scheduled intervals.
For exa mple, if fuel is used that doe s not
comply with required sta nda rd s, the fuel
filter may need more frequent draining or
rep la cement and it may also be necessary
to change other components more often
(e.g. spark plugs).
It is recomm en ded to s eek te ch nic al a dvice
on the servicing requirements dependent
on the specific operating conditions of your
vehicle.
