Position of load carriers
Make sure that the wing-shaped load carriers are installed on the roof rails with the rounded edge forward (see the
inset illustration above). The load carriers are identical and can be placed anywhere along the roof rails.
Fitting the load carriers (accessory)
Make sure that the load carrier is pressed firmly out against the roof rail. Screw the load carrier in place. Use the
supplied torque wrench and tighten to the mark on the wrench (corresponding to 6 Nm). See illustration.
Load carrier cover
The car's ignition key or the stud on the edge of the supplied torque wrench can be used to undo or tighten the cover.
Turn a quarter turn (90 degrees). See illustration.

NOTE: To avoid excessive wear and the necessity of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in the same location and
position as before removal. To lessen the chance of imbalance, each wheel hub is equipped with a guide stud to ensure
that a removed wheel can be reinstalled in its original position (as when changing over to winter tires/wheels).
NOTE: Refer to page 127
for hoisting the vehicle on a garage lift.
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.
Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or lubricated.
The extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.
Installing the wheel
Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub.
Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Make sure that you align the wheel with the guide stud on the wheel hub prior
to installation.
Install the wheel bolts and tighten hand -tight. Using the lug wrench, tighten crosswise (see illustration above) until
all bolts are snug.
Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts crosswise to 100 ft. lbs. (136 Nm).
Install the wheel cap (where applicable).

Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to
cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases
engine power over that developed by A normally-aspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator)
is located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold.

Fuel system
The engine is equipped with a multiport fuel injection system.
Distributor ignition system
Firing order: 1-2-4-5-3
Electronic ignition setting: Not adjustable
Spark plugs: Champion RC8PYP 8 (or equivalent)
Spark plug gap: 0.028-0.032" (0.7-0.8 mm)
Tightening torque: 18.4 ft. lbs. (25 Nm)
Replacing spark plugs
The spark plugs should be changed every 30,000 miles (48,000 km). However, city driving or fast highway
driving may necessitate changing after 15,000 miles (24,000 km) of driving. When installing new plugs, be sure
to fit the right type and use correct torque. When changing the plugs, check that the suppressor connectors are
in good condition. Cracked or damaged connectors should be replaced. When changing the spark plugs, clean
the terminals and the rubber seals.
WARNING!
The ignition system operates at very high voltages. Special safety precautions must be followed to prevent injury.
Always turn the ignition off when:
Replacing ignition components e.g. plugs, coil, etc.
Do not touch any part of the ignition system while the engine is running. This may result in a shock and bodily
injury.
