SG020B1-E DAILY OPERATING CHECKS The following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, which- ever occurs sooner.
o Engine oil level.
o Engine coolant level.
o Power steering fluid level.
o Brake fluid level.
o Windscreen washer fluid level.
o Battery condition.
o Tyre condition and pressures.
o Operation and cleanliness of all lighting equip-
ment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning lamp operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage. The vehicle must not be driven if the daily oper- ating checks indicate that any item of equipment related to the safety or roadworthiness of the vehicle is not functioning correctly. SG030A1-E ENGINE OIL The correct engine oil level is of paramount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result in irreparable damage being sus- tained by the engine. The engine oil level must be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, whichever occurs sooner. In addition, it is imperative that only an approved grade and specification of oil is used to avoid the possibility of serious engine damage and prema- ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must be avoided if the maximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.
SG030B02GK-E Recommended Oil A multi grade oil having a specification which meets A.P.I. specification of SH, SG or above is recommended. The oil viscosity should be se- lected according to the operating environment of the engine by means of the table shown below. The engine oil recommendations are complete in themselves and the use of additives is neither required nor recommended. The use of engine oil additives may result in invalidation of the vehicle warranty.

OWNER MAINTENANCE
6-6 CAUTION: The oil being drained from the engine will be hot. Care should be exercised to prevent scalding.
4. When the oil has drained from the sump,
replace the drain plug using a new washer ensuring that the plug is not over tightened.
Tightening torque :
4.5 ~ 4.0 kgf.m (1.6/2.0L)4.5 ~ 3.5 kgf.m (2.7L)
5. Remove the oil filter by rotating counterclock- wise, using a proprietary oil filter removal toolif necessary. Note that the oil filter will contain approximately 0.5 litres of oil and this should be collected in a suitable receptacle.
6. Install a new oil filter having smeared the
sealing ring with clean oil and rotating clock- wise until the filter contacts the mounting and then a further one half turn. Do not over- tighten. Tightening torque: 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m.
7. Pour the specified quantity of the recom- mended oil into the engine and replace the filler cap. Start the engine and ensure that no oil leaks exist. Turn off the engine and after a couple minutes, recheck the oil level.
WARNING: Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oils may result in serious skin disor- ders including dermatitis and cancer. Avoid contact with skin as far as possible and al-
G040A02GK-EAT ENGINE OIL AND FILTER REPLACEMENT The engine oil and filter must be changed at the time or mileage interval specified in the mainte- nance schedule. If the vehicle is operated under severe or adverse conditions, the oil and filter must be replaced more frequently. To replace the oil and filter, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the engine is at normal operating
temperature and park the vehicle on level ground with the parking brake securely ap- plied and the engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.
3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to collect the displaced oil and remove the drain plug fromthe sump.
ZG030E1-A ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil Engine oil has the primary function of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while normal driving. The cause of oil consumption in a normal engine are as follows;
o Engine oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston
rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a piston moves downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated during en- gine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber. This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high temperature combustion gases during the combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly ef- fected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under se- vere driving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driving condition.

G290A01GK-EAT HEADLIGHT AIMING ADJUSTMENT
Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1. Keep all tyres inflated to the correct pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press
the front bumper & rear bumper down severaltimes. Place vehicle at a distance of 118.1 in. (3m) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for
full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel, and spare tyres, jack, and tools).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn on the headlight.
5. Open the boot.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the centre of each headlight beam pattern) and the hori-zontal line (through the centre of each head- light beam pattern) on the aiming screen. And then, draw the parallel line at 1.18 in. (30 mm) under the horizontal line.
WARNING:The halogen bulb contains gas under pres- sure and if impacted could shatter, resulting in flying fragments. Always wear eye protec- tion when servicing the bulb. Protect the bulb against abrasions or scratches and against liquids when lighted. Turn on the bulb only when installed in a headlight. Replace the headlight if damaged or cracked. Keep the bulb out of the reach of children and dispose of the used bulb with care.

If the vehicle has had front body repair and the headlight assembly has been replaced, the head- light aiming should be checked using the aiming screen as shown in the illustration. Turn on the headlight switch.
1. Adjust headlights so that main axis of light is parallel to centre line of the body and isaligned with point "P" shown in the illustration.
2. Dotted lines in the illustration show centre of headlights.
