GENERAL INFORMATION
General precautions
Dangerous substances
Modern vehicles contain many materials and liquids
which if not handled with care can be hazardous to
both personal health and the environment.
WARNING: Many liquids and other substances
used in motor vehicles are poisonous and should
under no circumstances be consumed and
should, as far as possible, be kept from contact
with the skin. These liquids and substances
include acid, anti-freeze, asbestos, brake fluid,
fuel, windscreen washer additives, lubricants,
refrigerants and various adhesives.
Always read carefully the instructions printed on
labels or stamped on components and obey them
implicitly. Such instructions are included for
reasons of your health and personal safety.
Never disregard them.
WARNING: Many of the fluids used in motor
vehicles, such as coolant, brake fluid and power
steering fluid, are inflammable. Take care not to
spill fluids when topping-up, a fire may result. If
spillage does occur, ensure the area is
thoroughly cleaned before starting the engine.
Synthetic rubber
Many 'O' rings, seals, hoses, flexible pipes and other
similar items which appear to be natural rubber, are
in fact, made of synthetic materials called
Fluoroelastomers.
Under normal operating conditions this material is
safe and does not present a health hazard. However,
if the material is damaged by fire or excessive
heating, it can break down and produce highly
corrosive Hydrofluoric acid which can cause serious
burns on contact with skin.
If skin contact does occur:
lRemove any contaminated clothing
immediately.
lIrrigate effected area of skin with a copious
amount of cold water or limewater for 15 to 60
minutes.
lObtain medical assistance immediately.
Should any material be in a burnt or over-heated
condition, handle with extreme caution and wear
protective clothing (seamless industrial gloves,
protective apron etc.). Decontaminate and dispose of
gloves immediately after use.Lubricating oils
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with used
engine oil. Used engine oil contains potentially
harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer
or other serious skin disorders.
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with
mineral oil. Mineral oils remove the natural fats from
the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis.
Health protection precautions
The following precautions should be observed at all
times:
lAvoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
lWear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.
lDo not put oily rags in pockets.
lAvoid contaminating clothes (particularly those
next to the skin) with oil.
lOveralls must be cleaned regularly. Discard
heavily soiled clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.
lFirst aid treatment should be obtained
immediately for open cuts and wounds.
lUse barrier creams: apply before each work
period to help prevent lubricating oil from
contaminating the skin.
lWash with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed (propriety skin cleansers and nail
brushes will help).
lUse moisturisers after cleaning; preparations
containing lanolin help replace the skin's natural
oils which have been removed.
lDo not use petrol, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas, oil,
thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
lIf skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice
without delay.
lWhere practicable, degrease components prior
to handling.
lWear eye protection (e.g. goggles or face
shield) if there is a risk of eye contamination.
Eye wash facilities should be provided in the
close vicinity of the work area.

SRS component replacement policy
The following information details the policy for
replacement of SRS components; either as a result
of a vehicle accident or as a result of vehicle age.
Impacts which do not deploy the airbags or seat
belt pre-tensioners
Check for structural damage in the area of the
impact, paying particular attention to bumper
armatures, longitudinals, crash cans and bracketry.
Impacts which deploy the airbags and/or seat
belt pre-tensioners
The inspection and replacement policy is dependent
on the type and severity of the crash condition. The
following guidelines are the minimum that should be
exercised as a result of the deployment of specific
SRS components.
Front airbag/ seat belt pre-tensioner deployment
(driver and passenger)
If the front airbags and/or seat belt pre-tensioners are
deployed as a result of a front, front angled or side
impact, the following parts must be replaced:
lDriver airbag module
lPassenger airbag module (where fitted)
lSRS flyleads
lSRS DCU
lRotary coupler
lFront seat belt pre-tensioners
In addition, the following should be inspected for
damage and replaced as necessary:
lFront seat belt and buckle tongue (anchorage
points, webbing etc.)
lFascia moulding adjacent to passenger airbag
module (where fitted)
lSteering wheel (if damage is evident)
lFront seat frames and head restraints (if there is
evidence of damage to the seat frame or
cushion pan)
lSteering column (if adjustment is lost or there
are signs of collapse)
lFront seat belt height adjusters on 'BC' posts (5
door models only)
lRear seat belts and seat belt buckles (webbing,
buckle covers, body anchorage and tongue
latching function)Rear Impact
If the seat belt pre-tensioners are deployed during a
rear impact, the following components must be
replaced:
lSeat belt pre-tensioners
lFront and rear automatic seat belt assemblies
used during an impact.
lSRS DCU
In addition, the following components should be
inspected for damage and replaced as necessary:
lFront seat frames
lFront seat belts and buckle (retractors,
webbing, tongue latching, buckle covers, body
anchorages and 'D' loops)
lSeat belt height adjusters (5 door models only)
lRear seat belts and seat belt buckles (webbing,
buckle covers, body anchorage and tongue
latching function)
Periodic replacement of SRS components
The performance of the propellants within airbags
and seat belt pre-tensioners will deteriorate over a
period of time. As a result, it is essential that the
airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners are periodically
replaced to maintain occupant safety. Airbags, seat
belt pre-tensioners and the rotary coupler should be
replaced at the recommended intervals.

Fluids
Fuel
Always use the following recommended fuels:
Petrol engines
Use unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of
95 RON to ENN 228 specification.
In an emergency (and only if the correct fuel is
unavailable), lower octane rated fuel can be used for
very limited periods of moderate, low speed
motoring, provided engine 'knocking' does not occur.
Fuels of 90 RON is used in certain markets; 90 RON
fuel can be used regularly ONLY if the engine has
been tuned specifically to suit low octane fuel.
Certain markets use fuel containing a 23% Ethanol
additive.
K1.8 and KV6 engines are also available for use with
a low octane leaded fuel specification in some
markets.
Diesel engines
Use a good quality diesel fuel or automotive gas oil
(AGO) conforming to EN 590 specification.
It is important that the sulphur content of diesel fuel
does not exceed 0.3%.
Ensure the fuel filter element is changed at the
recommended intervals.
+ MAINTENANCE, MAINTENANCE, Fuel
Filter - Diesel.
Brake Fluid
Use only DOT 4 brake fluid. DO NOT use brake fluid
of a different specification.
PAS fluid
Use Texaco 9226 fluid.Anti-freeze solutions
The overall anti-freeze concentration should not fall,
by volume, below 50% to ensure that the anti-
corrosion properties of the coolant are maintained.
Anti-freeze concentrations greater than 60% are not
recommended as cooling efficiency will be impaired.
Use Havoline Extended Life Coolant (XLC), or any
ethylene glycol based anti-freeze (containing no
methanol) with only Organic Acid Technology (OAT)
corrosion inhibitors, to protect the cooling system.
CAUTION: No other anti-freeze should be used
with Havoline Extended Life Coolant.
The cooling system should be drained, flushed and
refilled with the correct amount of anti-freeze
solution at the intervals given on the Service
Maintenance Check Sheet.
After filling with anti-freeze solution, attach a warning
label to a prominent position on the vehicle stating
the type of anti-freeze contained in the cooling
system to ensure that the correct type is used for
topping-up.
The following recommended quantities of anti-freeze
will provide frost protection to -36 °C (-33 °F):

Engine – K1.8
Engine – KV6
