Maintenance schedule 8-3

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

During the normal day-to-day
operation of the vehicle, general
maintenance should be performed
regularly as prescribed in this
section. If you detect any unusual
sounds, vibrations or
smell, be sure to check for the
cause or have your ParsKhodro
dealer do it promptly. In addition,
you

should

notify

your

ParsKhodro dealer if you think
that repairs are required.
When performing any checks or
maintenance

work,

closely

observe

“Maintenance

precautions” later in this section.
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL

MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Additional information on the
following items with “*” is found
later in this section.

OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE

The maintenance items listed
here should be performed from
time to time, unless otherwise
specified.
Tires* Check the pressure with a
gauge periodically when at a
service station (including the
spare) and adjust to the specified
pressure if necessary. Check
carefully for damage, cuts or
excessive wear.
Windshield wiper blades* Check
for cracks or wear if they do not
wipe properly.
Doors and engine hood Check
that all doors and the engine hood
operate properly. Also ensure that
all latches lock securely. Lubricate
hinges and latches if necessary.
Make sure that the secondary
latch keeps the hood from
opening when the primary latch is
released.
When driving in areas using road
salt or other corrosive materials,
check for lubrication frequently.
Lights* Make sure that the

headlights, stop lights, tail lights,
turn signal lights, and other lights
are all operating properly and
installed securely. Also check
headlight aim.
Tire rotation* Tires should be
rotated every 10,000 km (6,000
miles) for 2WD vehicles and 5,000
km (3,000 miles) for 4WD vehicles.
However, the timing for tire
rotation may vary according to
your driving habits and road
surface conditions.

8-4 Maintenance schedule

INSIDE THE VEHICLE

The maintenance items listed
here should be checked on a
regular basis, such as when
performing periodic maintenance,
cleaning the vehicle, etc.
Warning/indicator lights and
buzzers/chimes make sure that
all warning/indicator lights and
buzzers/chimes

are

operating

properly.
Steering wheel Check for change
in the steering conditions, such as
excessive free play, hard steering
or strange noises.
Seat belts check that all parts of
the seat belt system (e.g. buckles,
anchors, adjusters and retractors)
operate properly and smoothly,
and are installed securely. Check
the belt webbing for cuts, fraying,
wear or damage.

UNDER THE HOOD AND

VEHICLE

The maintenance items listed
here

should

be

checked

periodically e.g. each time you
check the engine oil or refuel.
Windshield washer fluid* Check
that there is adequate fluid in the
tank.
Engine coolant level* Check the
coolant level when the engine is
cold.
Engine oil level* Check the level
after parking the vehicle on a level
spot and turning off the engine.
Brake and clutch fluid level*
Make sure that the brake and
clutch fluid level is between the
MAX and MIN lines on the
reservoir.
PRECAUTIONS
When performing any inspection
or maintenance work on your
vehicle, always take care to
prevent serious accidental injury
to yourself or damage to the
vehicle. The following are general
precautions which should be

closely observed.

● Park the vehicle on a level
surface, apply the parking
brake securely and move the
transmission control lever to
neutral (“N”).

● When working under the
engine hood, turn the engine
off and wait until it cools down.

● Be sure to turn the ignition
key to the “OFF” position when
performing any replacement or
repair.

● If you must work with the
engine running, keep your
hands, clothing, hair and tools
away from moving fans and fan
belts.

● It is advisable to remove
necktie and any jewelry, such
as rings, watch, etc. before
working on your vehicle.

● If you must run the engine
in an enclosed space such as a
garage, be sure there is proper
ventilation for exhaust gases.

● Never get under the vehicle
while it is supported only by a
jack. If it is necessary to work

Maintenance schedule 8-5

under the vehicle, support it
with safety stands.

● Keep smoking materials,
flame and sparks away from
fuel and battery.

● Never

connect

or

disconnect either the battery or
any transistorized component
connector while the ignition key
is on.

● Always apply the parking
brake and block the wheels to
prevent

the

vehicle

from

moving.

● On gasoline engine models
with the multiport fuel injection
(MFI) system, the fuel filter or
fuel lines should be serviced by
a ParsKhodro dealer because
the fuel lines are under high
pressure even when the engine
is off.

● Failure to follow these or
other

common

sense

guidelines may lead to serious
injury or vehicle damage.

● Improperly disposed motor
oil and/or other vehicle fluids
can

hurt

the

environment.

Always

conform

to

local

regulations for disposal of
vehicle fluid.
This

“Maintenance

and

do-it-

yourself”

section

gives

instructions regarding only those
items which are relatively easy for
an owner to perform.
You

should

be

aware

that

incomplete or improper servicing
may result in operating difficulties
or excessive emissions, and could
affect your warranty coverage. If
in doubt about any servicing, have
it done by your ParsKhodro
dealer.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

The following table

’s list the

periodic maintenance servicing
required ensuring good engine
and emission control system
performance

and

good

mechanical condition of your new
vehicle.
The first 1000 km (600 miles) of
cervical is one of the most
important service periods and

is vital to ensure the optimum
condition of your new vehicle.
The following tables show the
normal maintenance schedule.
Depending

on

weather

and

atmospheric conditions varying
road surfaces, individuate driving
habits

and

vehicle

usage,

additional

or

more

frequent

maintenance may be required.
See

“Maintenance under severe

driving conditions

”.

Periodic maintenance beyond the
last period shown on the labels
requires similar maintenance.

RECOMMENDED FUEL

Unleaded gasoline of above 87
octane (RON)

（ or automotive

ethanol gasoline

）.

CAUTION

●

Doesn’t use recommend

fuel will heavily damage the
emission control system

， and

influence the control circle.

●

In any situation

，Don’t use

leaded gasoline

，it will damage

the

three

way

catalytic

converter.
Except for three way catalyst
equipped models: Unleaded or
leaded gasoline of above 87
octane (RON).

CAUTION:

Use

unleaded

gasoline

if

instructed on the fuel filler lid.

RON CAUTION TRANSACTION:
Use unleaded gasoline of above
93 octane

（RON）（or alcohol

gasoline for car

）。But on the high

altitude localities

（over 1219m）,

you could use unleaded gasoline
of 88 octanes (or alcohol gasoline
for car).
It will cause continued, oppressive
knocking

when

using

the

unleaded gasoline of below 93
octane .Knocking is a kind of
sound similarly as knocking metal.
It could damage the engine when
the situation is severe. If there is
oppressive knocking or jar less
knocking driving on the lever road
with jar less speed when you use
the previous fuel

，please contact

the authorized PARSKHODRO
maintenance service center to
adjust the working condition for
you.

Else

， the car was

inappropriate used

，there is no

duty of PARSKHODRO.
Incorrect timing ignition will cause
knocking; then, it could increase
the oil wear and damage engine
by over heat. If you face any

previous situation, please contact
authorized

PARSKHODRO

maintenance service center to
check your car.
But, you will hear light knocking
once in a while when accelerating
or climbing. Don’t worry, because
the light knocking indicates that
the engine got the highest oil
efficiency in the situation of big
load.

AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEM REFRIGERANT
AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONS

The air conditioning system in this
PARSKHODRO vehicle must be
charged

with

the

refrigerant

HFC-134a (R-134a) and the
lubricant, Nissan A/C System Oil
Type R or the exact equivalents.

CAUTION:

Use of any other refrigerants or
lubricants will cause severe
damage and you will need to
replace your vehicle’s entire air
conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the
atmosphere is not recommended.
The new refrigerant HFC-134a
(R-134a) in your PARSKHODRO

vehicle will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. However it may
contribute in a small part to global
warming.

PARSKHODRO

recommends that the refrigerant
be recovered and recycled.
