SG020B1-E
DAILY OPERATING CHECKS
The following items should be checked
on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle
is refuelled, whichever 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 light-
ing equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer opera- tion.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mir- rors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and operation.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the
daily operating checks indicate that
any item of equipment related to the
safety or roadworthiness of the vehicle
is not functioning correctly. G030B02A-EAT
Recommended Oil
1. Petrol engine
A multi grade oil having a specification
which meets A.P.I. specification of SG
or above is recommended. The oil vis-
cosity should be selected according to
the operating environment of the engine
by means of the table shown in the
illustration. The engine oil recommen-
dations are complete in themselves
and the use of additives is neither
required nor recommended. The use of
engine oil additives may result in invali-
dation of the vehicle warranty.
G030A01FC-EAT
ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high
or low oil level may result in irreparable
damage being sustained by the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked
on a daily basis, whenever the vehicle
is refuelled or before starting a long trip,
whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an
approved grade and specification of oil
is used to avoid the possibility of seri-
ous engine damage and premature 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.

NOTE:
The use of a 5W-20 multi grade oil is
not recommended for sustained high
speed use.
2. Diesel engine
The engine oil quality should meet the
following classification:
API class: CF-4 or ABOVE
ACEA class: B4 or ABOVE
NOTE:
SAE 0W-30 oil is for extra cold zone
and to be restricted by driving condi-
tion and dealing area. (Especially,
not recommended for sustained high
loaded and high speed operation.) SG030C1-E
Engine Oil Level
Gasoline engine
HTB167
HTB167A
Diesel engine The engine oil level should be checked
with the engine at normal operating
temperature and the vehicle parked
upon level ground.
Prior to checking the level, the vehicle
should be allowed to stand for several
minutes after the engine has been
switched off to allow the oil to drain
back to the sump.
Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean rag. Replace the dipstick fully
and withdraw again when the oil level
may be read from the stick. Normal oil
level is indicated when the oil is present
between the two marks on the stick. It
is not necessary to add oil if the level is
above the lower mark and in any case,
oil must not be added to the degree that
the level exceeds the upper mark. Re-
place the dipstick fully after checking
the level.

ENGINE OIL REPLENISHMENT
If the indicated oil level is at or below the
lower mark of the dipstick, oil should be
added until the level is at or below the
upper mark.
To add oil to the engine, remove the
filler cap by rotating in an counterclock-
wise direction and pour engine oil into
the engine. Before checking the level
again, allow several minutes for the oil
to drain into the sump. Replace the oil
filler cap rotating it in a clockwise direc-
tion until tight.
The quantity of oil required to raise the
level from the minimum to maximum
level is approximately 1.2 litre.ZG030E1-E
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 con-
sume 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 pis-
tons, piston rings and cylinders.
A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder
wall when a piston moves down-
wards in the cylinder. High negative
pressure generated during engine
operation sucks some of the oil into
the combustion chamber.
This oil with some oil of the cylinder
wall is burned by the high tempera-
ture combustion gases during the
combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly
effected by the viscosity and quality
of oil, engine rpm and driving condi-
tion etc.

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER
REPLACEMENT
The engine oil and filter must be changed
at the time or mileage interval specified
in the maintenance 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 normaloperating temperature and park the
vehicle on level ground with the park-
ing brake securely applied and the
engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.
