1 Answers
Items required for the first maintenance include: driver's license; maintenance manual; warranty manual; owner's ID card; vehicle's driving license; vehicle registration book; vehicle purchase invoice. Bring these to the designated first maintenance facility for the vehicle's initial service. Important note: Schedule an appointment with the 4S store in advance. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after a new car has been driven. The specific timing varies by vehicle, typically after driving 5,000 kilometers or 6 months. It's crucial to attend the first maintenance on time, neither early nor late. The completion of the first maintenance signifies the end of the vehicle's break-in period, allowing it to be driven under standard load and normal speed as required by the car. The timing for the first maintenance is calculated from the date of vehicle pickup. There are two indicator values for the first maintenance: mileage and time. Whichever indicator is met first will be the standard. First maintenance tasks include: changing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning the air filter, checking various fluid levels for normalcy, inspecting the generator belt and wiper blades for damage, checking tire pressure for normalcy, and inspecting tires for damage or bulges. Time required: Completing all tasks takes approximately 2 hours. The most important aspect of a new car's first maintenance is changing the engine oil and oil filter. When changing the oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. The choice of oil must refer to the "Vehicle Usage and Maintenance Manual," as different vehicle models specify different oil grades. Maintenance precautions: Do not wash the interior of the car with water: Many people clean their cars during holidays, washing the exterior with water and wiping it with a cloth. It's important to note that the interior should not be washed directly with water. If the floor mats are dirty, use a vacuum cleaner or take them out to brush with detergent, dry them, and then put them back. There are many holes under the rubber mats on the driver's side floor. If water enters, it won't dry but will flow through these holes to areas like the gearbox, causing erosion and corrosion. The best practice is to vacuum clean first and then wipe with a cloth to prevent water accumulation. Do not mix different brands of antifreeze: When the car's antifreeze is low, it's recommended to drain the existing antifreeze and add the same brand from the start. Different brands of antifreeze have varying chemical properties and use different corrosion inhibitors. Mixing them can lead to unnecessary problems. Do not lubricate tire bolts and nuts: When bolts on a moving car rust, they are often oiled to function properly again. Some people apply lubricant to bolts and nuts to prevent rust, but this introduces unnecessary risks to safe driving. At high speeds, bolts and nuts can easily loosen or even fall off, leading to driving malfunctions.
