6CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030A01A-AAT Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It is suggested that you check the oil levelat least once a week in normal use and more often if you are on a trip or driving in severe conditions. G030B05HP-GAT
Recommended Oil 1. Gasoline Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper
SAE viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature. Recommended viscosity is given in the following illustration.
(2) The engine oil quality should meet the following classification.
API SJ, SL or ABOVE, ILSAC GF-3 or ABOVE NOTE:
o For good fuel economy, SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is preferred regardless of regional option and engine variation.
o If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, second-ary recommended engine oil forcorresponding temperature range can be used.
2. Diesel Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature. Recommended viscosity is given in the following illustration.

NOTE: For diesel-powered vehicle SAE 0W-30 (2.5 TCI) or SAE 5W-30(2.9CRDi) oil should be used only in areas where extremely cold tem- peratures of 10°C(50°F) or beloware experienced.For diesel-powered vehicle, if theatmospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or below, SAE #30 oil must not be used. This oil should be used only in areas where the at-mospheric temperatures are 0°C (32°F) or above. (2) The engine oil quality should meet
the following API classification: Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI) : CF-4 or ABOVE Diesel Engine (2.9 CRDi) : CF-4 or ABOVE
(3) The engine oil quality should meet the following ACEA classification :
Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI) : B2 or B3Diesel Engine (2.9 CRDi) : B4 or ABOVE G030C02HP-AAT To Check the Oil Level Before checking the oil, warm up the engine to the normal operating tem- perature and be sure your car is parked on level ground. Turn the en-gine off. NOTE: Before checking or adding the engine oil, remove the cover abovethe engine oil filler cap and the engine oil level dipstick with a blade screwdriver inserted in thenotch (2.5 TCI only).

Wait ten minutes, then remove the dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert thedipstick and withdraw it again. Then note the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should bebetween the upper ("F") and lower ("L") range.

If the oil level is close to or below the "L" mark, add oil until it reaches the "F" mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again.
Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock-
wise.
The distance between the "F" and "L"marks is equal to about 1 liter (Gaso- line Engine/Diesel Engine (2.5 TCI))/ 1.4 liters (Diesel Engine (2.9 CRDi))of oil. G350A01A-GAT
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 consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil con-sumption 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 thecylinder wall when a piston movesdownwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated dur- ing engine operation sucks someof the oil into the combustion cham- ber. This oil with some oil of the cylin- der wall is burned by the high tem- perature combustion gases duringthe combustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition.

CAUTION:
Slowly pour the recommended oil
using by a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage engine.
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when adding the en-gine oil as it may be hot enough toburn you.
