Severe Driving Conditions
Items with "R" or "I" in the cart will need service more often, if you drive in some severe conditions.

The conditions are:
A. Repeated short distance driving.
B. Dusty conditions.
C. Severe cold weather.
D. Areas with road salt or other corrosive materials.
E. Rough or muddy roads.

The services are:
- Cean the air cleaner element every 12,000 km or 6 months and replace every 48,000 km or 24 months under condition B or E.
- Replace engine oil and oil filter every 6,000 km or 3 months under condition A or B.
- Inspect front and rear brake discs and calipers, and rear brake pads every 12,000 km or 6 months uner condition A, B, D, E.
