Operating manual for Lada Vesta SV

Important tips in the Lada Vesta SV manual

When purchasing any car from the dealership, the driver receives documents and an instruction manual along with the car.
VESTA and its modifications, this literature consists of several small brochures. They spell out the main aspects of operating the car, recommendations for using consumables, undergoing scheduled maintenance, and so on. If you have lost this literature or it is not at hand, but it is very necessary now, then you can download it from the official website of the automaker. The manual is universal, therefore it can be applied to any Lada Vesta SV station wagon, regardless of the type of configuration. In it you can familiarize yourself with the main operating conditions and obtain additional important information about the machine.

Upholstery

I praise the upholstery. Vesta is a budget car, and 78,000 km can be called serious mileage. The “leather” interiors of other foreign cars that are not the cheapest look depressing for such mileage. Lada's fabric is in order! She practically didn’t stretch out on the driver’s seat cushion (in the Almera, for example, the picture was worse). The central armrest, on which I constantly lean, does not show any traces of use.

And the interior trim is not easily soiled. I have three dogs, and although I carry them in the back seat in a special hammock, the sides of the sofa and the door panels cannot be completely covered. So there are no stains on them. For three and a half years I did without stain remover, using a simple vacuum cleaner.

The fabric on the driver's seat barely stretched. For a budget employee with such mileage and a driver weighing over 90 kg, I think this is a good indicator.

Vesta's interior fabric is nice and non-staining. The edges of the seat that are not covered with a dog cape do not require dry cleaning. Even those that are light gray in color.

Review of the book on operation and repair of Lada Vesta SW

The car comes with:

instructions for using the installed audio system;
service book;
the manual itself.

All literature is in a leather folder. It will not only help you carry out and mark scheduled maintenance on time, but will also become an assistant in cases where you have forgotten which engine oil or coolant is suitable for your car. You will also receive comprehensive information on controlling the audio system and the main points of car repair if a breakdown occurs on the road. In addition, when selling a car, this kit instills more confidence in the potential buyer in you and the car.

Main contents of the manual:

Getting to know the car

The functions of the model, the meaning of the buttons, instrument panel indicators, adjustments, and so on are described.

Dashboard

Eight pages provide detailed information on the dashboard - the meaning of the symbols, controls, use, operation of the steering wheel keys and the on-board computer.

Driving

Information is provided about the control units of the station wagon, their proper operation, starting, preparing the car for movement, and the use of “assistants.” The interior lighting systems, the operation of the radio, and the ventilation/heating systems are described separately.

Car care

Provides detailed information on proper car care and maintaining the machine in good working order.

Practical advice

The manufacturer provides important information on towing a car. If necessary, changing wheels, using additional equipment, storing the car, tire pressure levels, and so on.

Specifications

Last chapter in the manual. Here you can find out about such characteristics as the number of revolutions, maximum speed, acceleration time, fuel consumption, tank volume and so on.

The instructions for the Cross and SV models are absolutely the same. All differences must be clarified in the literature.

Self-service

Since the three-year warranty period had ended, we saw no reason to overpay the dealer for work if we had our own technical center in Tushino. And the consumables purchased at a regular spare parts store made the pockets lighter to a minimum. A canister of “synthetics” Lada Ultra 5W40 (1187 rubles), oil (193 rubles), air (255 rubles) and carbon cabin filters (334 rubles) - that’s the entire set required. Total - less than 2000 rubles for everything. An official TO-5 dealer would cost about 7,000 rubles.

Almost immediately after the purchase, Vesta was equipped with hood and trunk shock absorbers. The first are alive, the second gave up after one winter. And last winter they also began to creak disgustingly. I took it off and threw it away without any regrets.

Reviews

Positive	Negative
Vesta SV 2022. Before that, there were simple old cars without modern electronics. Thanks to the instructions, I was able to figure everything out quickly. There is all the necessary information.	I regretted the money spent when I purchased the first Vesta model. The sedan looks good, the equipment is good. But for that kind of money you could buy a good used foreign car - there would be fewer problems. They say now many problems have been eliminated and the models of last year and this year are much better.
My car never had an on-board computer, so it was scary to buy such a car. I bought a used Vesta SV, the seller said that the manual had all the detailed information and showed it to me. In general, everything is fine, there were no problems. In addition, I found a lot of additional interesting information on the Internet. I'm planning to do chip tuning.	Everything is fine, but! I couldn't find any information on detailed repairs of the machine in the instructions. The warranty has expired and now I try to do everything myself to save money. As a result, you have to look for information on forums.
I have long been envious of the owners of brand new Ladas and I really wanted the Xrey myself, but in the end, at the very last moment, I took a closer look at the SV Cross and bought it. I don’t regret anything, I’m happy with everything – cross-country ability, performance, consumption, comfort.	So-so - about nothing and everything. I have been working as a mechanic at a service station for many years. Both the machine and the instructions are full of flaws. There is not enough information for me in the manual, but the car itself has enough problems, as evidenced by personal experience.
Hooray! A dream come true! I purchased not just a foreign car, but a “domestic foreign car” at an affordable price. After two months of operation, no problems - no errors on the dashboard, nothing broke, very comfortable, the car drives quietly and smoothly.	Horrible! My husband gave “THIS” as a thank you for the birth of his son. No, of course, I am also very grateful to him, he wanted to please me, but our financial capabilities are not great. But it would be better if I drove my old foreign car. Now I have a sedan that has virtually no sound insulation. In addition, in two years, probably everything that could break has already broken. Thankfully, at least the fuel consumption is adequate.
I read a lot of negative reviews about Vesta, I heard a lot of negative reviews from the owners. But as far as I understand, it depends on your luck. Information began to appear more often that the manufacturer is gradually eliminating its shortcomings and SV Cross is already much better. I really liked this model and took a chance. In general, I was very lucky and I’m happy with everything.	Somehow I wanted to get more information in the car manual. I always repair my cars myself, and when the warranty expired, some questions arose that I could not find an answer to in the instructions. Thank you, there is the Internet - you can find anything there.

Controls

The Lada Vesta instruction manual gives a complete overview of the controls and instruments of the front panel. The document describes what this or that pointer on the on-board computer is intended for and what it means. This is necessary for control during vehicle operation.

The system warns the driver about all emergency situations and notifies when emergency mechanisms occur. It describes in detail how to operate the car in a particular case. How to tow a car in case of a breakdown and how to drive a Lada Vesta in difficult road conditions.

Conclusion

Never before has the Russian automobile industry caused so much excitement and controversy among its products.

Vesta surprises and amazes, but often not in the best way. And even the drivers had questions about the instructions. Maybe it’s time for the domestic automaker to not just team up with foreign companies, invite their specialists, but actually adopt their experience, knowledge and capabilities. A responsible approach to work will give excellent results - I’m sure of it. And Russian cars will become popular far beyond the country's borders.
