MotorBabuBajaj Chetak service schedule
When your Chetak's services are due, how the C3001 differs from the 35 series, and what keeps the 3-year warranty valid — from Chetak's own service and warranty pages.

Chetak 35 series (C3501, C3502, C3503)
| Service | Due at (whichever comes earlier) |
|---|---|
| 1st service | 1,000 km or 1 month |
| 2nd service | 5,000 km or 6 months |
| 3rd service | 10,000 km or 12 months |
| 4th service onwards | Every 5,000 km |
From Chetak's own service page (“Check When to Service”), which gives the same schedule for the C3501, C3502 and C3503. From the 4th service it gives a distance only — every 5,000 km — with no months. Chetak's pages don't say whether any service is free.
Chetak C3001
| Service | Due at (as Chetak lists it) |
|---|---|
| 1st service | 1,000 km or 6 months |
| 2nd service | 5,000 km or 10 months |
| 3rd service | 10,000 km or every 6 months |
The C3001 has its own schedule on the same Chetak page. It lists three services and no interval after them, so for the 4th service on, go by the owner's manual that came with your scooter.
Warranty — why the schedule matters
Chetak's warranty is 3 years or 50,000 km, whichever comes earlier, on the scooter and its lithium-ion battery; the auxiliary battery and the tyres have 12 months. It runs from the date on the sales invoice — and, in Chetak's words, it is in effect as long as the periodic maintenance services are done at Chetak authorised service centres as per the recommended schedule. An extended warranty, bought separately, takes it to 5 years.
Where and how to service it
- Authorised workshops only: Chetak says only its authorised workshops have the tools and trained technicians to check and restore the scooter's hardware and software.
- No oil change: it's an electric scooter, so there's no engine oil, oil filter or spark plug to replace.
- Charging: use only Chetak's own charging cable or charger — they have built-in safety devices. Extra ones are sold at Chetak dealerships.
