F070E01HP-GAT
o Automatic Transmission Fluid and
Filter
The fluid level should be in the "HOT" range of the dipstick, after the engine and transmission are at normal operating temperature. Check the automatic transmission fluid level with the en- gine running and the transmission in neutral, with the parking brake properly applied. Use DEXRON- II or III when adding or changing
fluid. F070F01A-AAT
o Brake Hoses and LinesVisually check for proper installation, chafing, cracks, deterioration and any leakage. Replace any deteriorated or damaged parts immediate- ly. F070G02A-AAT o Brake FluidCheck brake fluid level in the brake fluid reser- voir. The level should be between "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the side of the reservoir. Use only hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4. F070H01A-AAT
o Rear Brake Drums/ Linings,
Parking Brake
Check the rear brake drums and linings for scoring, burning, leaking fluid, broken parts, and excessive wear. Inspect the parking brake system including the parking brake lever and cables. For detailed service procedures, refer to the Shop Manual. F070J01A-AAT o Brake Pads, Calipers and RotorsCheck the pads for excessive wear, discs for run out and wear, and calipers for fluid leakage. F070K01A-AAT o Exhaust Pipe and Muffler Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler and hangers for cracks, deterioration, or damage. Start the engine and listen carefully for any exhaust gas leakage. Tighten connections or replace parts as necessary. F070L01A-AAT o Suspension Mounting BoltsCheck the suspension connections for loose- ness or damage. Retighten to the specified torque. F070N01A-AAT
o Power Steering Pump, Belt and
Hoses
Check the power steering pump and hoses for leakage and damage. Replace any damaged or leaking parts immediately. Inspect the power steering belt for evidence of cuts, cracks, ex- cessive wear, oiliness and proper tension. Re- place or adjust it if necessary. F070P01A-AAT o Driveshafts and Boots Check the drive shafts, boots and clamps for cracks, deterioration, or damage. Replace any damaged parts and, if necessary, repack the grease. F070Q01A-AAT
o Air Conditioning RefrigerantCheck the air conditioning lines and connec- tions for leakage and damage. Check air condi- tioning performance according to the relevant shop manual if necessary.
F070M01B-AAT
o Steering Gear Box, Linkage & Boots/
Lower Arm Ball Joint, Upper Arm Ball Joint
With the vehicle stopped and engine off, check for excessive free-play in the steering wheel. Check the linkage for bends or damage. Check the dust boots and ball joints for deterioration, cracks, or damage. Replace any damaged parts.

G030A01A-AAT CHECKING THE ENGINE OILEngine oil is essential to the performance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil level at least once a week in normal use and more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. G030B03HP-GAT Recommended Oil 1. Gasoline Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric tem- perature. Recommended viscosity is given in the fol- lowing illustration.
G030B01HP
NOTE: SAE 5W-20 is not recommended for sus- tained high speed vehicle operation.

DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE 6-7
The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filter changes are required. The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set theparking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic transmis- sion) or reverse gear (manual transmis- sion).
2. Open the hood and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counterclockwise with a wrench of the proper size. Be sure that a drain pan is in position to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drain plug.
WARNING: Be very careful when draining the engine oil
as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace
the drain plug using a new washer and retighten by turning it clockwise. Oil pan drain plug tightening torque: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counter- clockwise with a oil filter wrench of theproper size. A certain amount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So be sure to have your drain pan in place under- neath it.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance with the instructions on the carton or on the filteritself. Do not over-tighten (Tightening
torque: Gasoline- 1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf .
m, Diesel
- 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf .
m). Be sure that the mounting
surface on the engine is clean and that theold gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with clean en- gine oil before installation.
7. Refill the crankcase with the recommended engine oil. Refer to the specification in chap-ter 9 for engine oil capacity.

G040A02HP-GAT CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
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 severe driving conditions such as high speeds and
frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driving condition.
