o Automatic Transaxle:
Be sure to use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
CAUTION:
A vehicle with an automatic transaxle should never be towed from the rear with the front wheelson the ground. This can cause seri- ous damage to the transaxle.
3) It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with all the wheels off the ground.
D080D02TB-AAT EMERGENCY TOWING For emergency towing when no com- mercial tow vehicle is available. Do not attempt to tow your vehicle in thismanner on any unpaved surface. This could result in serious damage to your car.Nor should towing be attempted if the wheels, drive train, axles, steering or brakes are damaged. Before towing,be sure the transaxle is in neutral and the key is in "ACC" (with the engine off) or in the "ON" position (with the enginerunning). A driver must be in the towed car to steer it and operate the brakes. (1)Open the towing cover to push it
with your finger.
(2)To mount the towing hook, rotate it clockwise.

than 30 mph (50 km/h) and for more
than 15 miles(25 km).Be sure the steering is unlocked by placing the key in the "ACC" posi- tion. A driver must be in the towedvehicle to operate the steering and brakes.

G030D01TB-EAT 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 intothe engine. Before checking the level again, allow several minutes for the oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oilfiller cap rotating it in a clockwise direc- tion until tight. The quantity of oil required to raise thelevel 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 negativepressure 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 thecombustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly
effected by the viscosity and qualityof oil, engine rpm and driving condi- tion etc.

Petrol engine SG050A1-E ENGINE COOLANT CHECKING AND REPLACING
SG050B1-E Coolant recommendations WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot, since the system is pressurized and coolant may be ejected from the radiator resulting inscalding.
3. Prepare a suitable receptacle to col-
lect the displaced oil and remove thedrain plug from the sump.
4. When the oil has drained from the sump, replace the drain plug using anew washer ensuring that the plug is not over tightened. Tightening torque is: 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by rotating coun- terclockwise, using a proprietary oil filter removal tool if necessary. Notethat the oil filter will contain approxi- mately 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 androtating clockwise until the filter con-tacts the mounting and then a further one half turn. Do not over-tighten CAUTION:
The oil being drained from the en- gine will be hot. Care should beexercised to prevent scalding.
! Tightening torque: Petrol -
1.2 ~ 1.6 kgf.m
Diesel(RHD) - 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m
7. Pour the specified quantity of the recommended oil into the engine and replace the filler cap. Start the en- gine and ensure that no oil leaks exist. Turn off the engine and after acouple minutes, recheck the oil level.
WARNING:
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oils may result in seri- ous skin disorders including derma- titis and cancer. Avoid contact with skin as far as possible and alwayswash thoroughly after any contact. Keep used oils out of reach of chil- dren. It is illegal to pollute drains,water courses and soil. Use only authorized waste collection facili- ties including civic amenity sitesand garages for the disposal of used oil and oil filters. If in doubt, contact the local authority for disposal in-structions.

SG060A1-E SPARKING PLUG REPLACE- MENT
G060A01L
0.039 ~ 0.043 in. (1.0 ~ 1.1 mm )
This operation should only be performed when the engine is cold.
1. Remove the centre cover from the engine rocker cover.
2. Remove plug lead from the sparking plug to be replaced, pulling the lead by the rubber cap. (Pulling the lead may damage the carbon conductor).
3. Clean around the base of the plug to be removed, and install the plugsocket ensuring that the ceramicinsulator does not become damaged. Turn the socket counterclockwise to remove the plug. CAUTION:
Sparking plugs must only be cleaned using purpose designed equipment. Wire brushing may damage the cen-tre electrode-insulator causing mis- firing to occur. Only the correct grade of sparking plug should be used.Use of an incorrect grade may result in serious engine damage. Prior to installing a sparking plug, the gap between the centre and outer elec- trodes must be checked and adjusted as necessary. Adjustment is facilitated by bending the outer electrode towards or away fromthe centre electrode. Under no circum- stances should attempts be made to adjust the position of the centre elec-trode.
4. Insert the sparking plug into the cyl- inder head and screw by the wrench and until the plug contacts the seat- ing area. Tighten the plug with the socket by a further 1/2 to 3/4 of a turnonly. 5. Replace the plug lead ensuring that
the cap is pushed firmly into place.Confirm that the cap is correctlyseated by lightly pulling upon it.
NOTE: When replacing the spark plug, al- ways use the genuine parts recom- mended. Recommended Spark Plugs

!WARNING:
Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should never be stored in an un- sealed container. The presence ofwater in the braking system will cause vapour locks and increase the possi- bility of brake fade along with pro-moting corrosion within the braking system. The brake fluid must be changed at the specified time or mile-age interval to ensure continued safe operation of the system. Brake fluid will cause rapid and serious damageto paintwork. If accidental spillage occurs, the affected area must be rinsed with water immediately. Donot allow brake fluid to come into SG140A1-E AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM MAINTENANCECondenser Ensure that the condenser is periodi- cally inspected and that accumulationsof dirt, dead insects and leaves etc, are removed to ensure that the efficiency of the system is not impaired. Care mustbe exercised to ensure that the con- denser fins are not damaged during cleaning.
