G030B02TB-GAT CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL Diesel EngineRecommended Oil
Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil levelevery 500km or before starting a long trip and more often if you are driving in severe conditions. 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 con-dition and dealing area. (Especially, not recommended for sustained high loaded and high speed opera-tion.)
NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-
20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 engine oil is preferred regardless of regionaloption and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 engine
oil is not available, secondary rec-ommended engine oil for corre- sponding temperature range can be used.

G040B04FC-GAT CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
(Diesel Engine: Left hand drive type (E.C only)) The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified in the maintenance schedule in Section5. 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
the parking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge moves above the lowest mark. Turnthe engine off and place the gear selector lever in "P" (automatic) or reverse gear (manual transaxle).
2. Open the hood and remove the en- gine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the oil pan drain plug by turning it counterclockwise oil pan with a wrench of the proper size. Be surethat a drain pan is in position to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drain plug.
7. Remove the engine oil level dip-
stick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the recom-
mended engine oil. Refer to the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
