Recommended Oil
1. Petrol Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature.Recommended viscosity is givenin the following illustration.
(2) A multi grade oil having a specifi- cation which meets A.P.I. specifi-cation of SG, SH or ABOVE isrecommended.DAILY OPERATING CHECKS
SG020B1-E The following items should be checked on a daily basis or whenever the vehicle is refuelled, whichever occurssooner.
o Engine oil level.
o 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 op-
eration.
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 ve-hicle is not functioning correctly.ENGINE OIL
G030A01FC-EAT The correct engine oil level is of para-
mount importance. An excessively high or low oil level may result inirreparable 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 specificationof oil is used to avoid the possibility ofserious engine damage and prema- ture wear. The use of "budget price" oil is a false economy that must beavoided if the maximum reliability and useful life is to be obtained from the vehicle.

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 whilst nor- mal driving.
The causes 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 downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated during engine operation sucks some of this 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 during the combustion process. o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. More engine oil may be consumed under severe driving conditions such as high speeds, frequent ac- celeration and deceleration, com-pared to normal driving.
!
To add oil to the engine, remove the filler cap by rotating in an counter-clockwise direction and pour engine oil into the engine. Before checking the level again, allow several minutesfor the oil to drain into the sump. Replace the oil filler cap rotating it in a clockwise direction until tight. The quantity of oil required to raise the level from the minimum to maximum level is approximately 1 litre (PetrolEngine)/1.4 litres (Diesel Engine).
WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch theradiator hose when adding the en- gine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

And then, draw a parallel line at 1.50 in. (38 mm) under the horizontal line incase of adjusting the low beam or at 0.83 in. (21 mm) under the horizontal line in case of adjusting the high beam.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with a phillips screwdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the each vertical line witha phillips screwdriver - HORIZON-TAL AIMING.
Before performing aiming adjustment,make sure of the following.HEADLIGHT AIMING AD- JUSTMENT

1. Keep all tyres inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper & rear bumper down several times. Placevehicle at a distance of 118.1 in. (3m) from the test wall.
3. See that the vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant, engine oil and fuel, and spare tyre,jack, and tools). Have the driver or equivalent weight placed in driver's seat.
4. Clean the headlight lens and turn on the headlight.
5. Open the bonnet.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the centre of each headlight) and thehorizontal line (through the centre of each headlight) on the aiming screen.
