In the crankcase it is recommended to fill in the oil of the same brand as was in the engine. If another brand of oil is poured in, you must first flush the engine lubrication system with oil of the brand that will be filled into the engine. To do this, drain the old oil, fill in new oil 2–4 mm above the “0” mark on the oil level indicator (dipstick). Start the engine and let it run for Idling approximately 10 min. Then drain the oil, replace the oil filter or its filter element and fill in fresh oil.

The oil level in the box crankcase should reach the edge of the filler hole. If the drained oil contains metal particles or is very dirty, flush the box. To do this, pour 0.9 liters of fresh oil into its crankcase. Jack up the rear of the car. Start the engine and, turning on the first gear, let it run for 2-3 minutes. Then drain the oil and refill with fresh oil. When checking the oil level, you need to clean the surface of the breather from dirt and turn its cap several times to remove dirt that has fallen under it.
Oil in crankcase rear axle must be changed every 60,000 km. The oil is changed in the same way as in the gearbox.

A warningDo not use re-drained brake fluid.
brake fluid clutch and brake actuators must be changed once every 2 years, regardless of the vehicle mileage. Clutch and brake drives use brake fluids of domestic production "Rosa", "Rosa-3", "Tom", "Neva" or their foreign counterparts on a non-petroleum basis, the quality level of which is not lower than DOT-3. Use other brands of fluids, especially petroleum-based fluids, prohibited.
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should not be stored in open containers.
The procedure for replacing brake fluid is as follows:
1. Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir cap.
