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 lighting equipment.
o Windscreen wiper and washer operation.
o Horn operation.
o Warning light operation.
o Adjustment and cleanliness of mirrors.
o Seat and seat belt adjustment and opera- tion.
o Fluid leakage.
The vehicle must not be driven if the daily
operating checks indicate that any item of equip- ment related to the safety or roadworthiness ofthe vehicle is not functioning correctly. G030A01FC-EAT
ENGINE OIL
The correct engine oil level is of paramount
importance. An excessively high or low oil levelmay result in irreparable damage being sus-tained by the engine. The engine oil levelmust be checked on a daily basis, wheneverthe vehicle is refuelled or before starting along trip, whichever occurs sooner.
In addition, it is imperative that only an ap-
proved grade and specification of oil is used toavoid the possibility of serious engine damageand premature wear. The use of "budget price"oil is a false economy that must be avoided ifthe maximum reliability and useful life is to beobtained from the vehicle.

A multi grade oil having a specification which meets A.P.I. specification of SG or above isrecommended. The oil viscosity should be se-lected according to the operating environmentof the engine by means of the table shown inthe illustration. The engine oil recommenda-tions are complete in themselves and the use ofadditives is neither required nor recommended.The use of engine oil additives may result ininvalidation of the vehicle warranty. 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 follow-
ing classification:
API class: CF-4 or ABOVEACEA class: B4 or ABOVE
