Maintenance should be performed at least once a year. If the vehicle's mileage during this period is more than 15 thousand km, then maintenance should be performed after this mileage. When operating the vehicle in difficult conditions, i.e. mainly city and short-distance trips, frequent driving in mountainous areas, towing a trailer or operating in dusty areas, maintenance should be performed more often.
