MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Fuel Filter Replacement
Replace the engine fuel filter every.
lGasoline Engine : 60,000km (36,000 miles)
lDiesel Engine : 45,000km (24,000 miles)
Spark Plug Replacement
Replace spark plugs with same type.
lType : BOSCH : F8DC4
BERU : 14F-8DU4
Champion : C11YCC
lGap : 0.8 ± 0.1 mm
Spark Plug Wire Replacement
Clean wires and inspect them for burns, cracks or other
damage. Check the wire boot fit at the Distributor and at
the spark plugs. Replace the wires as needed.
Brake System Service
Check the disc brake pads or the drum brake linings.
Check the pad and the lining thickness carefully.
Tire and Wheel Inspection and Rotation
Check the tires for abnormal wear or damage. To
equalize wear and obtain maximum tire life, rotate the
tires. If irregular or premature wear exists, check the
wheel alignment and check for damaged wheels. While
the tires and wheels are removed, inspect the brakes.
NORMAL VEHICLE USE
The maintenance instructions contained in the
maintenance schedule are based on the assumption
that the vehicle will be used for the following reasons:
lTo carry passengers and cargo within the limitation
of the tire inflation prassure. Refer to “Tire and Wheel”
in section 2E.
lTo be driven on reasonable road surfaces and within
legal operating limits.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED
MAINTENANCE SERVICES
The services listed in the maintenance schedule are
further explained below. When the following maintenance
services are performed, make sure all the parts are
replaced and all the necessary repairs are done before
driving the vehicle. Always use the proper fluid and
lubricants.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter Change
Always use above the API SH grade or recommended
engine oil.
Engine Oil Viscosity
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel
economy and cold weather operation. Lower viscosity
engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance; however, higher temperature
weather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils
for satisfactory lubrication. Using oils of any viscosity
other than those viscosities recommended could result
in engine damage.
Cooling System Service
Drain, flush and refill the system with new coolant. Refer
to “Recommended Fluids And Lubricants” in this section.
Air Cleaner Element Replacement
Clean the air cleaner element every.
lGasoline Engine : 15,000km (10,000 miles)
lDiesel Engine : 10,000km (6,000 miles)
Replace the air cleaner element every .
lGasoline Engine : 60,000km (36,000 miles)
lDiesel Engine : 30,000km (18,000 miles)
Replace the air cleaner more often under dusty
conditions.

0B-12 GENERAL INFORMATION
OWNER INSPECTIONS
AND SERVICES
WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE
Horn Operation
Blow the horn occasionally to make sure it works. Check
all the button locations.
Brake System Operation
Be alert for abnormal sounds, increased brake pedal
travel or repeated puling to one side when braking. Also,
if the brake warning light goes on, or flashes, something
may be wrong with part of the brake system.
Exhaust System Operation
Be alert to any changes in the sound of the system or
the smell of the fumes. These are signs that the system
may be leaking or overheating. Have the system
inspected and repaired immediately.
Tires, Wheels and Alignment Operation
Be alert to any vibration of the steering wheel or the
seats at normal highway speeds. This may mean a wheel
needs to be balanced. Also, a pull right or left on a
straight, level road may show the need for a tire pressure
adjustment or a wheel alignment.
Steering System Operation
Be alert to changes in the steering action. An inspection
is needed when the steering wheel is hard to turn or
has too much free play, or is unusual sounds are noticed
when turning or parking.
Headlight Aim
Take note of the light pattern occasionally. Adjust the
headlights if the beams seem improperly aimed.
AT EACH FUEL FILL
A fluid loss in any (except windshield washer) system
may indicate a problem. Have the system inspected and
repaired immediately.
Engine Oil Level
Check the oil level and add oil if necessary. The best
time to check the engine oil level is when the oil is warm.
1. After stopping the engine, wait a few minutes for the
oil to drain back to the oil pan.
2. Pull out the oil level indicator (dip stick).
3. Wipe it clean, and push the oil level indicator back
down all the way.
4. Pull out the oil level indicator and look at the oil level
on it.5. Add oil, if needed, to keep the oil level above the
lower mark. Avoid overfilling the engine, since this
may cause engine damage.
6. Push the indicator all the way back down into the
engine after taking the reading.
If you check the oil level when the oil is cold, do not run
the engine first. The cold oil will not drain back to the
pan fast enough to give a true oil level reading.
Engine Coolant Level and Condition
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir tank
and add coolant if necessary. Inspect the coolant.
Replace dirty or rusty coolant.
Windshield Washer Fluid Level
Check the washer fluid level in the reservoir. Add fluid if
necessary.
AT LEAST TWICE A MONTH
Tire And Wheel Inspection and Pressure
Check
Check the tire for abnormal wear or damage. Also check
for damaged wheels. Check the tire pressure when the
tires are cold ( check the spare also, unless it is a
stowaway). Maintain the recommended pressures. Refer
to “Tire and Wheel” is in section 0B.
AT LEAST MONTHLY
Light Operation
Check the operation of the license plate light, the
headlights (including the high beams), the parking lights,
the fog lights, the taillight, the brake lights, the turn
signals, the backup lights and the hazard warning flasher.
Fluid Leak Check
Periodically inspect the surface beneath the vehicle for
water, oil, fuel or other fluids, after the vehicle has been
parked for a while. Water dripping from the air
conditioning system after use is normal. If you notice
fuel leaks or fumes, find the cause and correct it at once.
AT LEAST TWICE A YEAR
Power Steering System Reservoir Level
Check the power steering fluid level. Keep the power
steering fluid at the proper level. Refer to
Section 6A,
Power Steering System.
Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir Level
Check the fluid and keep it at the proper level. A low
fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which may
need to be serviced. Check the breather hole in the
reservoir cover to be free from dirt and check for an
open passage.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
GENERAL REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
lIf a floor jack is used, the following precautions are
recommended.
lPark the vehicle on level ground, “block” the front or
rear wheels, set the jack against the frame, raise the
vehicle and support it with chassis stands and then
perform the service operation.
lBefore performing the service operation, disconnect
the negative battery cable in order to reduce the
chance of cable damaged and burning due to short-
cir cuiting.
lUse a cover on the body, the seats and the floor to
protect them against damage and contamination.
lHandle brake fluid and antifreeze solution with care
as they can cause paint damage.
lThe use of proper tools, and the recommended
essential and available tools where specified, are
important for efficient and reliable performance of
the service repairs.lUse genuine DAEWOO parts.
lDiscard used cotter pins, gaskets, O-rings, oil seals,
lock washers and self-locking nuts. Prepare new ones
for installation. Normal function of these parts cannot
be maintained if these parts are reused.
lKeep the disassembled parts neatly in groups to
facilitate proper and smooth reassembly.
lKeep attaching bolts and nuts separated, as they
vary in hardness and design depending on the
position of the installation.
lClean the parts before inspection or reassembly.
lAlso clean the oil parts, etc. Use compressed air to
make certain they are free of restrictions.
lLubricate rotating and sliding faces of parts with oil
or grease before installation.
lWhen necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent
leakage.
lCarefully observe all specifications for bolt and nut
torques.
lWhen service operation is completed, make a final
check to be sure service was done properly and the
problem was corrected.
