pant, sitting in the middle of the rear seat, has a lap belt only.
Do not use the belt to restrain a child
sitting on the passenger’s lap.
If the belts are dirty, clean them with soft soapy water. Never iron the seat belts. The seat belt is subject to mandatory replacement if it was sub­jected to critical loads in a road acci­dent or is chafed, torn or otherwise damaged.
Some models are available with an airbag in the steering wheel being rec­ognized by an inscription «AIRBAG» on the steering wheel cover plate. The airbag is designed as an additional pro­tection, along with the seat belt, to the driver’s safety during an accident. The airbag is triggered at the head-on colli­sion.
The airbag is a reliable mainte­nance-free, self-contained unit of dis­posable type. In order to ensure maxi­mum protection and reduce possible injuries during an accident, do not stick any labels or fit any accessories to the steering wheel. During inflation of the airbag a small amount of powdery sub-
stance is emitted. This powder, although harmless to health, may cause skin or eye irritation. In case of exposure to such powder wash the eyes with water and clean the skin with neutral soap. After the airbag trigger­ing, do not touch the centre of the wheel or cut off the airbag to avoid cuts and burns. Replacement of the airbag should be entrusted to your dealer. The seat belts, exposed to critical loads, must be replaced along with the airbag.

Instrument cluster test mode
There are two types of LCD instru­ment cluster that may be installed on a vehicle.
Press the (daily) Trip counter reset knob and simultaneously switch igni­tion on (apply voltage to terminal 15 of ignition switch and further to the instru­ment cluster; the engine not running) to activate the instrument cluster test mode indicated as follows:
1. First type instrument cluster.
• The gauge pointers sway three times full way; all characters on the LCD and the fuel reserve tell-tale illu­minate.
• Press and then release the reset knob to show the number of the instru­ment cluster firmware version (e.g. UEr
1.1, UEr 0.8, or other) on the daily/total trip counter display. The indication stays for about 20 seconds, after which the instrument cluster automatically resumes its normal mode of operation.
• Press/release the knob again to display the last saved DTC.
• Reset the indication by depressing the reset knob and holding it down for over 5 seconds.
Read the display 15 seconds after
resetting as follows:
— «0» indicates that the system is
fault-free;
— «1» indicates a fault of the micro-
processor;
— «2» indicates an opening in the
fuel level sensor circuit;
— «4» indicates high on-board sys-
tem voltage (over 16 V);
— «8» indicates low on-board sys-
tem voltage (below 8 V);
— in case of multiple failures the system displays a resulting code, which is a sum of all the present fault codes, e.g. «6» (2+4), «10» (2+8), «12» (4+8), «14» (2+4+8).
• If the tachometer reads a signal (the engine is running), the test mode is canceled and the instrument cluster switches to its normal operational mode.
• In case of over- (16 V and higher) or undervoltage (below 8 V) the gauge pointers freeze until the fault is repaired.
2. Second type instrument cluster.
• Ahalf-way sway of gauge pointers, then a full sway, the clock/temperature LCD reads «test», the daily/total trip LCD displays 10123456789 in a creep­ing line, and the fuel reserve tell-tale illuminates.
• In case any of the instruments reads an input signal (e.g. the engine is running), the instrument cluster will complete the test as per 2.1 and resume its normal operation.
• In case of no input signals to the cluster, the gauge pointers sway halfway several times, then sway full way, the clock/temperature LCD reads «test», the daily/total trip LCD displays 10123456789 in a creeping line, and the fuel reserve tell-tale illuminates.
• In case of over- (16 V and higher) or undervoltage (below 8 V) the gauge pointers freeze until the fault is repaired.

RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 18
Page 19
Warning! Some vehicle modifica­tions may have no coolant level indi­cator.
4 — door ajar LED.
Lights up in red when a door is ajar.
5 — stoplight or side-marker lights failure LED.
If the stoplight bulb is faulty the LED lights up in orange when the brake pedal is depressed. Also lights up if a faulty side-marker bulb is activated.
6 — front brake pad wear indica­tor.
Lights up in orange when the brake pedal is depressed if the brake lining thickness is reduced to 1.5 mm. Goes off at ignition switch-off.
7 — seat belt reminder LED.
Optional. Lights up in red if the dri­ver’s seat belt is not fastened.
Modes of control module
The control module has the follow­ing modes:
— OFF;
— stand-by;
— start-up functional check;
— parameter check.
The module is OFF if there is no key in the ignition switch. With the ignition key in the «0» (OFF) position the mod-
ule enters the stand-by mode. If the dri­ver’s door is open, «Key left in the igni­tion lock» error is generated and an intermittent beep sound is heard for about 5-7 seconds. To stop beeping, close the door, remove the key or turn it to position «I» (Ignition). With the key in this position, the module enters «Start-up functional check» mode. In this mode all the visual and sound alarms are activated for 3-5 seconds. Then, after a second’s pause, the mod­ule enters «Parameter check» mode and in the event of any failures, the alarm is indicated as follows:
— LED of the failed parameter flash­es for 5-7 seconds, then illuminates continuously until the problem is fixed or the ignition key is returned to posi­tion «0» (OFF);
— Beep sound for 3 seconds (simul­taneously with the LED);
— if another problem occurs at the same time, the latest problem will have higher priority and its LED will start flashing and a beep will be heard, the LED of the previous fault illuminates continuously.
Important!
The on-board control system displays oil level with a 10 minute delay. This delay is activated after the engine is stopped if the ignition key remains in the
19
Fig. 21. On-board control system display
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 19
Page 20
20
switch. It is required to allow the oil to drip into the sump. During the 10 minute delay the on-board control system indi­cates oil level as of the moment preced­ing the engine stop. If you remove the ignition key, the oil level reading is reset. In this case an attempt to restart the engine within 10 minutes may cause false low oil level alarm, which should not be considered as an indication of the lubrication system failure.
TRIP COMPUTER
Fig. 22 shows a trip computer, which may be fitted on some vehicles. It is designed to take, store and display the following parameters:
— fuel consumption (current, aver­age, total);
— average speed;
— trip kilometers;
— current time;

To mount the rear license plate insert plastic sleeves 6 into the vehicle’s body back wall (5), place license plate 9 and fix it using self-tapping screws 8 with washers 7.
VEHICLE THEFT
DETERRENT SYSTEM
(IMMOBILIZER)
Theft Deterrent System АПС-4 (APS-4) allows the engine start-up only after a valid black key fob code has been read, thus providing additional
protection against unauthorized access to the vehicle.
The VTD system package includes two black key fobs for daily use and one red (programming) key fob. The red key fob is used to activate the immobilizer system and program the original equipment (OE) black key fobs; it is also used to program the replace­ment key fobs in case the OE key fobs are lost, or program the system after replacement of a faulty ECM or Immo­bilizer module. All key fobs bear the marking «АПС-4».
The VTD system is activated during the predelivery inspection.
Check to see that the Immobilizer system has been connected and is fully functional. To do that close the vehicle doors except the driver’s door, get in the car, and close the driver’s door . The key reader LED should start flashing twice a second. Put a black key fob in front of the key reader. The key reader LED will go off and two beeps will be heard.

Now you may switch ignition on and start the engine. The fuel injection puls­es will be enabled.
Important! If the engine can be started without using the black key fob, the VTD system has not been activated. Do not hesitate to request your dealer to program and activate the system during the PDI.
The immobilizer will be automatical­ly armed after ignition switch-off depending on the following: 1) if the dri­ver’s door has not been opened or it has been opened and not closed, the system will be armed in 5 minutes, 2) if the driver’s door has been opened and then closed, the system will be armed within 30 seconds after the door clos­ing.
In both cases a beep sound of a ris­ing pitch will be heard and the LED will start flashing 15 seconds before the system is armed.
If you do not wish to arm the system, switch ignition on.
Immobilizer System Disarming
To disarm the Immobilizer system activate the Reading Mode, which is indicated by the key reader LED flash­ing twice a second, using one of the fol­lowing procedures:
Open and then close the driver’s door. This will activate the Reading Mode for 1.5 minutes.
Cycle ignition ON/OFF. This will acti­vate the Reading Mode for 10 seconds.
After the Reading Mode has been activated place a black key fob in front of the key reader. The LED will go off and two beep sounds will be heard.
You may now switch ignition on and start the engine.
Important! Never use a red key fob to disarm the VTD system, for it will disable fuel injection pulses. Take the red key fob home for safe­keeping. In case the red key fob is lost after the VTD system has been activated, the manufacturer dis­claims warranty obligations related to improper operation of the VTD system or the ECM.
Emergencies
1. Black key fob is lost.
If a black key fob has been lost, we recommend that you reprogram the remaining black key fob. This will make the lost key fob invalid. Then buy a new black key fob and program both black key fobs that you now have. Apply to your dealer to perform programming procedure of the OE and the new key fob, or of two new key fobs.
2. Red key fob is lost.
If the red key fob is lost, it will be impossible to program the black key fobs. This means that you can continue using the vehicle with remaining black key fobs. However, should you lose these key fobs or should the immobiliz­er module become faulty, it will be nec­essary to replace both the immobilizer module and the ECM for the new ones. In this case use a new red key fob to activate the immobilizer system (to be performed at your dealer’s).
3. Replacement of a faulty immo-
bilizer module.
After replacement of a faulty immo­bilizer module program the system (to be performed at your dealer’s).
4. Replacement of a faulty ECM.
A faulty ECM may be replaced for a new one (i.e. not programmed). After
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 24
Page 25
replacement, the new ECM will allow engine start-up without the fuel enable signal from the immobilizer. To activate immobilization, program the system (to be performed at your dealer’s).
5. Engine won’t start.
If after disarming the system the key reader LED flashes once a second and the engine does not start up, the immo­bilizer system is faulty or there is no connection between the immobilizer module and the ECM. If the key reader LED flashes once or twice and then goes off, and the engine does not start, the fault is not within the immobilizer system.
Courtesy Light
The courtesy light goes off with a delay after the door is closed providing illumination for the driver during dark hours.
To activate courtesy light put the interior lighting switch in the OFF posi­tion. The courtesy light illuminates with the driver’s door opening and stays on while the door remains open. If ignition is switched off, the courtesy light will
illuminate for another 12 seconds after the driver’s door closing and then fade within 4 seconds. If the door is closed with ignition ON, the courtesy light will die out immediately after the door clos­ing. If the ignition key is turned into position «I» while the courtesy light illu- minates, the latter will go down imme­diately.
If you reopen the door while the courtesy light is still on or is fading, the courtesy light will re-illuminate and stay on while the door is open, then it will operate as described above.
USING IGNITION KEY AND
KEY FOBS
Use the following procedure to start a vehicle, fitted with the VTD system:
1. After opening a vehicle’s door or a brief ignition switch-on (if the courtesy light switch in the driver’s door is faulty) the immobilizer Reading Mode will be activated for 30 seconds — the key reader (3) LED (2) (Fig. 28) will flash at a double rate.
25
Fig. 28. Instrument panel (detail) Fig. 29. Ignition switch
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 25
Page 26
26
2. During this period place a black key fob (1) within 13 mm from the key reader. The key reader LED should illu­minate for 2 seconds and then go off, indicating that the immobilizer has read and accepted the key fob code. After that the immobilizer module will send a signal to the ECM enabling the fuel injection pulses.
To start the engine, turn ignition key 1 (Fig. 29) from position «I» (Ignition) to position «II» (Starter—Engine Crank­ing).
The ignition switch has a blocking device, which inhibits starter activation if the engine is running. If the first attempt to start up the engine fails, try again by switching from position «I» to position «0» (OFF) and then again to position «II» (Cranking).
To remove the ignition key put it into position «0». Removing the key will engage the steering wheel lock.
Never leave the key in the ignition switch to avoid storage battery dis­charge!
ENGINE START
To start an engine (warm or hot engine with the coolant temperature over 90°C) turn the ignition key into «II» position (Cranking). Do not depress the accelerator pedal.
During cold seasons when the tem­perature is below zero we recommend you to depress the clutch pedal before attempting an engine start in order to reduce the load on the starter motor.
If the engine fails to start at first attempt, switch ignition off, wait 30 sec­onds, then try to activate the starter again. It is not recommended to switch on the starter for more than 10 sec­onds. After starting the engine release the ignition key and let it slide into posi­tion «I» automatically.
Cold start
1. Set the gear lever in neutral posi­tion. At low ambient temperatures also depress the clutch pedal.
2. Insert the ignition key and activate the starter motor. If the first attempt to start the engine fails, switch ignition off, and in 20-30 seconds reactivate the starter motor. It is not recommended to keep the starter motor running for more than 10-15 seconds.
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
while starting the engine.
3. After the engine start-up, release the ignition key, which will return to position «I» automatically (Fig.27). As soon as the engine runs steadily, smoothly release the clutch pedal.
After a long parking period we rec­ommend you to prime fuel into the float chamber of the carburetor engine before attempting to start the engine.
Fig. 30. Fuel pump
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 26
Page 27
27
To prime the fuel, press lever 1 (Fig.
30). The vehicle features high power
ignition system, for that reason never start the engine by arcing a disconnect­ed HT lead to the spark plug, never dis­connect HT leads or check HT circuits for spark with the engine running, since it may damage HT components and render the ignition system inoperative.
Always remember that the exhaust
gasses are noxious. Therefore, the premises where the vehicle is started and warmed up must be well ventilated.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Never use the starter motor to set the
vehicle into motion.
We recommend starting the vehicle
with the engine warmed up. If in cold weather or after long parking there is no possibility for you to warm up the engine before setting to motion, and you need to take off immediately, start driving in a low gear and with low engine speed. As the temperature of oil in the gearbox rises, shift to higher gears.
For more confident gear shifting
remember the difference between the 1st and the reverse gear shift patterns. Select the reverse gear with a 3 sec­onds pause after depressing the clutch pedal and only with the vehicle fully stopped. To select reverse gear, move the lever from neutral position just like for the 1st gear, then push it forward harder to a stop.
The engine is distinguished for its
low noise operation. Timely shift gears to avoid engine high speeds. This helps to extend vehicle life and increase fuel economy.
Always try to evaluate the road before starting a cornering manoeuvre. Slow down the vehicle depending on the cornering radius and road surface, then «negotiate» the corner gradually increasing the engine speed. This will help to keep the hold even on an icy road. Avoid hard braking or abruptly releasing the accelerator pedal during cornering, for in this case the wheels grip on the road may fade and you will lose control over your vehicle.
Where possible, drive without heavy acceleration or deceleration, which add to tyre wear and fuel consumption. Fuel consumption is also affected by low tyre pressure, foul or worn spark plugs and use of engine oils of higher viscos­ity grades than those recommended.
Likewise, fuel consumption increas­es when towing a trailer. Furthermore, towing induces loads on the vehicle body, engine and transmission thus reducing their service life.
After driving over puddles, vehicle wash or long driving on wet roads, when water is likely to get into the wheel brake mechanisms, apply the brakes gently on the move in order to dry up the discs, drums and linings.
When driving over puddles reduce your speed to avoid aquaplaning, which may result in side skidding or loss of steerability. Worn tyres increase the probability of aquaplaning.
To avoid engine failure due to water coming into cylinders through the air cleaner, do not cross pools over 300 mm deep (i.e. water reaching vehicle underbody). Cross pools at a minimum possible speed to avoid waves coming over the bumper.
Do not exceed vehicle load specifi­cations given in the present manual.
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 27
Page 28
28
Overloading may damage the suspen­sion, cause tyre wear and loss of vehi­cle stability. Overall cargo weight, including cargo at the roof rack, should not exceed 50 kg.
Never drive at a high speed on rough roads, since sharp shocks may damage the suspension or the under­body.
BRAKING AND PARKING
Brakes design ensures efficient braking. Nevertheless, always try to brake gently and avoid hard braking.
Never switch off ignition or take the key out of the ignition switch while dri­ving. When the engine is off, no vacu­um is supplied to the power brakes, hence, a higher force is required on the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. Moreover, if the ignition key is removed, the steering wheel will be locked and you lose steering control.
In the event of a break or fault devel­oping in one brake circuit, the other cir­cuit ensures an effective stop of the vehicle. When this happens, the pedal travel increases and braking perfor­mance fades, which at the first instant can be interpreted as a complete brak-
ing system failure. Should this be the case, do not release the pedal and do not depress it repeatedly — it will only result in a longer braking path. Instead, hold the pedal down for maximum brak­ing efficiency.
The antilock braking system (ABS) is an optional part of car equipment, which prevents wheel lock-up during braking and, as a result, retains the vehicle’s steerability and minimum braking distance practically under any driving conditions. However, on loose surfaces (gravel, sand or snow) the braking distance may somewhat increase, as compared to the braking distance with the wheels locked up.
The antilock function becomes active at speeds above 8 km/h and is felt as slight pulsation of the brake pedal accompanied by light noise com­ing from the ABS components. If the ABS tell-tale illuminates (except during self-testing at ignition switch-on), it indi­cates a fault within the system, which must be eliminated at your dealer’s. A faulty ABS does not in any way inca­pacitate power braking.
To allow unhindered operation of the ABS, do not fit the vehicle with different size tyres.

If you happened to stop on an upward or downward slope, apply the handbrake and engage first or reverse gear, respectively.
TOWING
For towing your vehicle attach the tow-rope only to the front or rear towing eyes (1) (Fig. 31) provided. On the towed vehicle turn the ignition key to position «I» and switch on the hazard warning flashers (in dark hours also switch on side-markers, or attach a breakdown reflecting triangle if inoper­ative), as required by Traffic Regula­tions.
Towing should be done smoothly, without jerks or fast cornering.
Never use a rope to tow a vehicle on an icy road!
«RUN-IN» PERIOD
Over the first 2000 km:
1. Check tyre pressure and inflate the tyres to recommended value before each trip.
2. Do not exceed vehicle’s maximum speed limits listed in table 1.
3. Timely, following the road situa­tion, shift to lower gears, to avoid engine overloading.
4. Do not change the oil filled by the manufacturer.
5. Do not tow a trailer unless absolutely necessary.

NOTES ON USING
VEHICLES WITH
INJECTION ENGINES
If the light « » (CHECK ENGINE) comes on with the engine running, it does not mean, that the engine has to be stopped immediately, — the control module has back-up modes to allow engine operation close to normal. However, the vehicle must be taken to your dealer at the earliest opportunity to detect the cause of the MIL illumina­tion.
Only unleaded fuel should be used for injection vehicles fitted with the catalytic converter and oxygen sensor to ensure correct functioning of the engine. The use of leaded fuel will quickly ruin these components and result in smoky exhaust and poor fuel economy.
Use leaded fuel only for carburetor engines.
The catalytic converter is an expen­sive device designed for environmental protection. It may be damaged by mis­fires, since, in this case, unburnt fuel will get into the catalyst, resulting in over­heating and ceramic cracks. Therefore, in case of noticeable misfire (engine misses or car jerking) stop the engine and remove the cause of misfire. Regularly carry out all maintenance oper­ations for the ignition system specified in the service manual.
Never start the engine by towing or use the starter motor to drive the vehicle.
Avoid parking the vehicle on dry grass or other flammable materials, which may present a fire hazard if the catalyst is at its working temperature.
On engines with fuel injection sys­tem the ECM activates the fuel pump for 2 seconds at ignition switch-on. If you disconnect and then reconnect the storage battery cable on vehicles with the ECM model MP7.0, during the first
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 29
Page 30
30
attempt to start up the engine the fuel pump will be activated only with the starter motor activation. At subsequent attempts the fuel pump will be activated with ignition switch-on. However, in case of three consecutive failures to start up the engine, the fuel pump will once again be activated only with the starter motor activation.
If you disconnect and then recon­nect the storage battery cable on vehi­cles with the ECM model MP7.0, which do not have the VTD system (immobi­lizer), wait 5 second between ignition switch-on and the first attempt to start the engine.
INTERIOR VENTILATION
AND HEATING CONTROL
The interior ventilation and heating controls are illustrated in Fig.32.
Slide knob 2 to direct air into the dri­ver’s and passenger’s foot wells, or through the central (8) and side (7) reg­isters. Use shutter control levers 9 or 11 to redirect the air flow. To heat the sup­plied air, slide knob 3, which controls the heater valve. Adjust air stream intensity by selecting a desired position of switch 1.
By sliding control lever 4, you can adjust intensity of the air stream com­ing onto the windscreen through the upper registers and onto the side win­dows through registers 5. For maxi­mum airflow shut the central and side registers using slide-controls 10 and 12, then slide knob 2 rightwards and knob 4 leftwards. Direct cold air on the windscreen and side windows to demist them, for defrosting also slide knob 3 to the right.

SAFE DRIVING
INSTRUCTIONS
Observe the rules laid down below to ensure your safety on the road and maintain sound condition of the vehicle.
At the wheel
Efficient driving technique depends on the driver’s good posture, which can be described as follows: the driver leans back firmly against the backrest with his legs slightly bent in the knees when the pedals are fully depressed and with both his hands on the steering wheel also slightly bent. Try to seat firmly but not stiffly, otherwise you will get tired fairly soon.
Before the trip
Make the following checks before each trip:
1. Check tyre pressure and inflate as necessary. A pressure difference as small as 0.2-0.3 kgf/cm
2
may impede drivability and cause skidding at brak­ing.
2. Check oil level and top up if nec-
essary.
3. Check coolant, braking fluid and washer fluid levels and top up as nec­essary.
4. Check exterior illumination for correct operation.
5. Check windscreen wiper/washer and the parking brake.
6. Carefully inspect the parking ground. Spillage of oil or other fluids
indicates leaks in the car systems. Correct the problem.
7. Check brakes for correct opera­tion while driving out from the parking lot.
Fording
Ford with caution, since water may hide pits or other obstacles, which may damage wheel disks and suspension components. Do not cross fords over
0.3 m deep (water coming over vehicle bumper). Proceed with caution to avoid waves coming onto the radiator grille, for it may cause water suction into the engine through the air intake, and eventual engine failure. Purge the air cleaner with pressurized air after the fording if necessary.
The ignition system components may become wet and cause engine stoppage if driven in heavy rain. To avoid moisture condensation on the ignition system components apply a spray type water repellant.
The first few minutes after a rain starts present special hazard of wetted dust, which forms a slippery film on the road, thus reducing tyre traction.
Gently apply brakes from time to time to dry up brake disks and drums, which may become ineffective if wet.
Switch windscreen wiper to maxi­mum speed during nonstop overtaking. This will help you to have unhindered visibility even if there are water splash­es coming from under the wheels of the vehicle you are passing. Do the same if another vehicle is passing you by.
Do not overtake other vehicles if the water mist limits visibility.
Increase the distance to the vehicle ahead and slow down to avoid driving in the water mist.
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 31
Page 32
32
Slow down if driving by a sidewalk and do not splash water on pedestri­ans.
Winter driving
Winter driving requires special cau­tion! We recommend you to use winter tyres on all wheels.
Be careful while driving on wet or slippery roads, avoid hard braking, do not step on the accelerator pedal or release it abruptly. Steer your vehicle smoothly without sudden turns of the steering wheel. Decelerate gradually timely shifting to lower gears and gen­tly applying the brakes. If the vehicle starts to skid, turn the wheel in the direction of skidding and stabilize your vehicle with gentle steering and accel­erator pedal application. Never release the accelerator pedal if the vehicle starts to skid, this may cause your vehi­cle to spin around.
Ice is very likely to form at the cross­roads due to stop-and-go driving, which causes wheel spinning. Therefore, always think ahead and start decelerat­ing while you are still on a dry road.
It may appear rather difficult to set your vehicle into motion on a slippery road. Select the second gear and grad­ually releasing the clutch pedal increase the engine speed. For safe cornering shift into the first gear and start the manoeuvre with little accelera­tion avoiding wheel slip.
Mountain driving
Timely select lower gears and avoid engine tickover or vehicle jerking when driving uphill. Use engine braking and gently apply service brakes to go down a long descent. Select a correct gear to
avoid engine overspeeding and subse­quent failure. Never go downhill using only the service brakes with the engine off and the clutch disengaged. When the engine is off, no vacuum is supplied to the power brakes, and the disen­gaged clutch will make the braking fluid boil. Mind also that the higher you climb the lower is the braking fluid boiling point. Braking fluid boiling in the wheel cylinders causes complete failure of the service braking system felt as a spongy pedal.
If you want to stop at a parking place on a mountain road, do not switch the engine off immediately, for it will cause coolant boiling; allow the engine to idle for 1-2 minutes — this will make start­ing the engine easier.
Stay to the right side of a mountain road. Narrow and winding roads require greater attention and caution. Use horn and headlights when approaching «blind» turns. If you need to stop on the up- or downhill, turn the steering wheel so that in case of the vehicle’s accidental movement it would steer into a kerb or other obstacle.
Do not go uphill on a wet road until the preceding vehicle reaches the top.
Using brakes
Learn to brake smoothly without wheel lock-up. It is a good practice to brake smoothly while shifting to lower gears; this helps to maintain directional stability even on a slippery road, increases fuel economy, and extends tyre and brake pads service life.
An experienced driver slightly depresses the brake pedal several times until the stoplights illuminate to worn other drivers of the impending deceleration.
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 32
Page 33
33
If the vehicle steers sideways while braking with the fully functional suspen­sion, correct wheel alignment and nor­mal tyre pressure, check the braking system.
Select a free passage on the road to test the braking system of vehicle you never drove before. Try braking at 40, 60 and 80 km/h.
Do not park your vehicle for a long period with the parking brake applied to avoid brake pad-to-drum binding.
To prevent brake pad-to-drum bind­ing as a result of wet road driving or sharp temperature alterations dry the brakes by smooth service brake appli­cation on your way to the parking lot. Only after that you may apply the park-
ing brake and leave your vehicle for a long period.
Tyres and safe driving
Sharp acceleration/deceleration, low/high tyre pressure, untimely tyre rotation, unbalanced wheels, driving at high speeds on rough roads or incor­rect wheel alignment visibly reduce tyre service life. Driving with worn tread pat­tern on a rainy day is dangerous — there are no sipes, which provide pas­sageway for the water being expelled from under the tyre, and the tyre begins to aquaplane. Use winter tyres (M+S type) with or without spikes to drive in winter.
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 33
Page 34
This section describes the opera­tions to be regularly carried out between maintenance checks as pre­scribed by the Service Manual.
Check on a regular basis the rubber boots of the steering rack, ball bear­ings, gearshift rod, front axle balljoints and the steering rod joints. Adamaged boot will allow dust, water and mud into the joint reducing its service life. Replace a damaged boot or reshape a twisted one.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
An engine usually consumes a cer­tain amount of oil during operation. This amount depends on your driving tech­niques, and is predetermined by the engine load and speed. During the run­in period oil consumption is higher than regular.
Therefore, regularly check oil level, especially before long journeys.
Check the oil level on a cold engine, when it is off, and top up as necessary.
The oil level must be between the «MIN» and «MAX» marks of oil dipstick 1 (Fig.33). Refill the engine through the filler closed with cap 2.
Do not fill oil above the «MAX» mark. Otherwise it will be drawn through the ventilation system into the combustion chambers and then released into the ambient with the exhaust gasses. At the injection engines fitted with a catalytic converter oil in the exhaust may destroy the cata­lyst.
ENGINE COOLING
SYSTEM
Coolant level should be 25-30 mm above the «MIN» mark on the transpar­ent body of expansion tank 1 (Fig.34). Check the coolant level or open the expansion tank cap (2) only when the engine is cold. After refill, tighten the expansion tank cap firmly, since when the engine is running and warmed-up, the expansion tank is under pressure.
If you have to add coolant frequent­ly, check the cooling system for leak­age and remedy the situation. As an exception, the cooling system may be topped up with clean water, though you should never forget that in this case the freezing temperature will be higher. Therefore, make necessary repairs of the system as soon as possible and refill it with the coolant.
Warning! Note that coolant is poi­sonous! It must be stored in a tight­ly sealed container beyond the reach of children. Do not use clean water instead of coolant.

BRAKE SYSTEM
The brake fluid level is checked visually against the marks on reservoir 1 (Fig.35) made of translucent plastic. With new brake linings and cap 2 removed, the fluid level should reach the «MAX» marking.
When checking the brake fluid level, always check correct operation of the low fluid level sender by pressing the central part of protective cap 3 — with ignition ON, a respective tell-tale light should come up on the instrument panel.
The brake system failure warning light comes up when the fluid level is below the «MIN» mark, which in the event of only slightly worn or new brake linings indicates hydraulic leaks some­where in the system. Before topping-up fluid, be sure to eliminate any leaks.
Pay special attention to the flexible hoses, which suffer from exposure to water, mud, sand and salt. In case of small cracks, or hose bulging when the brake pedal is depressed, replace the hose for a new one.
Refill brake fluid every three years for the following reason: the brake fluid absorbs moisture from the ambient air, resulting in its lower boiling point. Apart from that, water present in the brake fluid may corrode some of the braking system components.
Note that brake fluid is poisonous! It must be stored in a tightly sealed con­tainer beyond the reach of children.
Avoid spilling brake fluid on the paintwork to prevent its damage.
STORAGE BATTERY MAINTENANCE AND
RECHARGING
The electrolyte level in the battery should be between the «MIN» (Fig.36) and «MAX» marks on the translucent battery case. If there are no marks, the level must be at the lower edge of the filler neck. If the electrolyte level is below that required, remove cover 1, unscrew caps 2 and top up distilled water to the battery through holes 3. Make sure, the vents are not blocked, then refit caps 2 and cover 1.

Afterwards, wipe off any spills of elec­trolyte and battery external surfaces with a clean cloth, soaked in a 10 per cent solution of ammonia or baking soda.
Do not fill the battery above required level: electrolyte spilling through the vents may damage the paintwork.
Always check that the battery termi­nals are tight and clean. Oxidized ter­minals or poor connection may cause sparking and thus damage vehicle electronics. For the same reason never disconnect the storage battery with the engine running to check the alternator operation.
When installing the battery, ensure correct polarity of connections accord­ing to the markings (positive terminal is also bigger in size than negative).
Charging the battery on the vehicle requires disconnection of the red lead from the alternator. The storage battery is connected to the alternator terminal 30 by the positive cable (terminal «+»).
We recommend you to remove the battery from the vehicle before recharg­ing it.
WASHER FLUID
The washer fluid in container 2 (Fig.
37) should be maintained on a reason­able level to prevent possible activation of low level sender 3. Top up washer fluid through the hole, normally closed by cap 1.
Fill the fluid reservoir of the washer system with a mixture of water and an appropriate washer fluid in proportion indicated on the package. Clean water may be used in warm weather.
Adjust the windscreen washer sprin­kler so as to make water come onto the upper part of the wiped area. For this purpose insert a needle into the sprin­kler orifice and using it as a lever adjust the sprinkler ball head.
SPARK PLUGS
The spark gap «A» (Fig.38) should measure 0.7-0.8 mm (1.00-1.15 mm for injection system). Adjust the gap by bending the side electrode only.
To ensure reliable start-up at cold temperatures replace the spark plugs for the new ones, even if the currently

RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 36
Page 37
installed spark plugs are in good condi­tion. The latter can be put away for safekeeping and used during the sum­mer time.
Always check that the HT leads are clean and tightly connected to the spark plugs, distributor sensor, ignition coil or ignition module (for injection sys­tem). Replace rubber boots if dam­aged.
WHEELS AND TYRES
Maintain tyre pressure at the level, specified in table 2. Driving the vehicle with tyre pressure other than recom­mended results in accelerated tyre wear, increased fuel consumption, poor vehicle stability and driveability. In case of repeated pressure drops, check for air leaks through the valve. If neces­sary, tighten the valve core or replace it.
If pressure continues to drop with the valve fully functional, repair the tyre using the sealant supplied with the vehicle and strictly observing the instructions.
All work related to the wheel bead­ing or balancing should be entrusted to your dealer.
Apply to your dealer for balancing the wheels after installing new tyres.
Rotate tyres as shown in diagram 39 to ensure their uniform wear.
Avoid driving the vehicle with the wheels rubbing against the kerbstone or driving at a high speed on a rough road (with pits and bumps), for it may damage the wheel rim and result in loss of wheel balance or sealing of tubeless tyres. Should you notice any vibrations while on the road, apply to your dealer to check wheel balance.

Wheel changing
To replace a road wheel: — place the vehicle on level ground
and apply the handbrake;
— remove covers 1 (Fig. 40) or mat and take out a pump, jack, tools and replacement wheel. Spare wheel 2 (Fig. 41) is located in a will of the boot. Remove the mat, then the cover and unscrew bolt 1 to take out the wheel.
— remove the wheel cap (if instal­led);
— slacken each nut of the affected wheel one turn using box wrench 2 (Fig.42);
— locate jack 1 head so that the nearest to the wheel sill rim enters the notch in the jack head and the jack base is exactly beneath it. Turn the jack handle (Position I) until the wheel is some 50-60 mm clear of the ground. If the handle cannot be turned 360°, use the smaller radius for rotation (Position II);
— remove the bolts and lift off the wheel. Position the spare wheel, fit the bolts and tighten them uniformly using the x-pattern;
— lower the vehicle to the ground and remove the jack. Fully tighten the bolts, check the tyre pressure and pump up as necessary;
Stow away the tools into the boot, fasten them with elastic straps and replace covers.

BODYWORK
MAINTENANCE
Bodywork is the basic and the most expensive part of the vehicle. It is man­ufactured using modern materials and high quality anticorrosion components. Corrosion resistance of the body is basically secured by the manufacturer, however, much depends on proper maintenance, particular climatic condi­tions, environment and storage condi­tions.
To avoid scratches, do not remove dust and dirt with a dry rag. It is best to wash the vehicle immediately after a trip with a soft sponge using a moder­ately strong jet of water. On a summer day wash your vehicle outdoors in a shady place. If this is impossible, wipe the paintwork dry immediately after washing to avoid stains left by water droplets drying under direct sunshine. On a winter day wash your vehicle indoors in a warm place and wipe dry the paintwork and door weatherstrips before driving out to avoid possible negative effects of water droplets freez­ing: paintwork cracking or weatherstrip­to-body freezing. Do not use soda, alkaline solutions or waste waters for washing, since they may cause dim­ming of the paintwork.
Before washing your vehicle, clear out drain holes (Fig. 51) in the doors and sills. Do not direct water jet on the electric and electronic components, sensors, or connectors in the engine compartment. Inspect the condition of electronic components and sensors’ connector boots. In case of water com­ing inside the connector dry it with pres­surized air and apply water repellant
substance to prevent oxidation of termi­nals.
Carefully wash doors’ and bonnet’s flanged joints, engine compartment and door apertures welded joints to avoid accumulation of dirt, which may damage paintwork and cause corro­sion.
In case of visible signs of corrosion (corroded spots, blistering of paint, etc.) abrade the affected spot with a fine grade sandpaper to reveal uncor­roded metal, then apply rust converter, prime and paint the spot.
Spalling and scratching of the paint finish, spalling of the sealer in the wheel arches and the underbody may be caused by mechanical actions dur­ing vehicle operation. Corrosion of welded joints or other bodywork joints is not penetration corrosion, and for that reason at early stages it can be corrected by polishing. Timely correct corrosion of the paint finish, which may appear during operation, to prevent fur­ther corrosion under the topcoat, its lamination and blistering.
In order to enhance corrosion resis­tance of the body, the closed internal spaces of the door sills, side- and crossmembers are protected with a
Fig. 51. Door and sill drain holes
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 43
Page 44
44
special anticorrosion compound. It is recommended to restore the protective coating of the closed spaces at your dealer’s during the first year of vehicle operation and later every 1.5-2 years.
Exposure of the vehicle underbody to gravel, sand, salt, etc. affects the sealers and the prime coat, facilitating body rusting. Carefully monitor condi­tion of the underbody and correct the revealed defects in due time and order.
To preserve the shine of the paint­work (especially for outdoor parking) polish your vehicle on a regular basis using special creams. Polishing creams seal new microcracks of the paintwork and prevent metal corrosion underneath.
Never leave the vehicle under direct sunshine for a prolonged period or spill acids, soda solutions, braking liquid or petroleum on the bodywork to avoid dimming of the paint.
Use a clean cloth to wipe off petrole­um spillage after filling up — this will help to prevent staining of the body under the fuel filler flap.
Use a wet cloth to wipe plastic parts. Do not use petroleum or solvents, for they may cause dimming of the plas­tics.
Remove dust from the seat cushion/ seatback by vacuuming. To remove greasy spots from upholstery, use uni­versal interior cleaners or neutral soapy water. Do not forget to thoroughly clean rubber seals and adjacent door and boot lid surfaces with a wet cloth.
Clean the glasses with soft linen rags or chamois leather. Add glass­cleaners to water when washing very dirty glasses (30cm
3
/l).
Due to unfavourable environmental situation in some regions the paintwork
of the vehicle may be negatively affect­ed. This may appear as rusty dust, local discolouration or destruction of the paintwork.
Rusty dust on the bodywork is the result of airborne metal particles depo­sition. These particles are later attached to the body through the process of corrosion in dew water. To remove rusty deposits use a 5% solu­tion of oxalic acid and then wash the vehicle with profuse clean water. Complete the operation by polishing the vehicle body. If no special action is taken to remove the rusty deposits, they will gradually go away after a num­ber of washes or rains.
Local discolouration (staining) of the paint finish or destruction of the clearcoat are caused by deposition of airborne industrial acids which undergo chemical transformations in humid air. Depending on how badly the bodywork is affected you may have to polish or repaint the body.
STORAGE
Pay special attention to vehicle stor­age conditions. If the vehicle runs 15000 kilometers a year, it means that it is only 1 hour in operation out of 24. Optimum conditions for vehicle storage are:
— a shed with the temperature and humidity at the same level as the ambi­ent, constant airflow and no sun or weather exposure.
— warm (single lot) garage with the temperature at least 5°C, relative humidity 50-70% and combined sup­ply/exhaust ventilation system.
If the ventilation system of the warm (single lot) garage is inefficient, and the
RE2115eng 23/04/2002 15:23 Page 44
Page 45
45
vehicle is operated during winter or is left for storage without drying after a wash, the destructive effect on the paint finish will multiply.
If you are planning to leave the vehi­cle for a long period under a shed or in a cold garage during winter, disconnect the battery and the car radio and take them away for separate safekeeping; also drain the washer fluid.
For indoors keeping with the sun­light coming in cover the vehicle body and tyres with a permeable canvas. Use of watertight covers (e.g. tarpaulin, polyethylene, etc.) without holes for windscreen and rear window ventilation results in water condensation and eventually damages the paint finish.
For outdoors keeping when a can­vas is used do not allow it to touch painted parts of the vehicle body to pre­vent paint damage (blistering, spalling, etc.). Place soft pads at least 20 mm thick between the vehicle body and the canvas to allow proper ventilation.
To prepare the vehicle for a long storage:
1. Wash the vehicle and wipe it dry. Remove corrosion, repaint spalling spots and coat the body with a preser­vative compound.
2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up. Stop the engine, remove the
spark plugs and fill each cylinder with 25-30 g of motor oil heated to 70-80°C, then make 10-15 crankshaft rotations and replace the sparkplugs.
3. Disconnect the warm air intake pipe from the air cleaner. Use oilpaper or oilcloth to close:
— air cleaner intake openings; — muffler tailpiece;
4. Cover the engine with tarpaulin, polyethylene or oilpaper.
5. Place the vehicle on supports so that the wheels do not touch the ground.
6. Cover the vehicle with a canvas.
7. Fully charge the storage battery and take it away for storage in a dry and moderately cool place.
Service the vehicle once every two
months of storage as follows:
1. Remove the cover and visually inspect the vehicle. Abrade and repaint corroded spots.
2. Remove the sparkplugs, shift into the 5th gear, rotate the front wheel 2-3 times and replace the spark plugs.
3. Rotate the steering wheel 1-1.5 turns in each direction. Depress (3-5 times) the brake, the clutch and the accelerator pedals, and apply (3-5 times) the handbrake.
