SE040A1-E Regular cleaning of the exterior paintwork serves two important func- tions. Firstly, the removal of abrasive dirt and contaminants will maintain thelustre of the paintwork and will prevent discolouration and dulling due to pro- longed contact.Secondly, the presence of damage through impact or abrasion will be ap- parent allowing early rectification to bemade thus preventing corrosion from becoming established and spreading beneath the paint film. To avoid "waterspotting" the vehicle should not be washed in direct sunlight particularly in the case of vehicles having dark bodycolours. The heat from the sun rays is absorbed by the paint film increasing the surface temperature. This actioncauses water used for washing to evaporate quickly leaving behind the deposits from the water and the sham-poo used. Use only a shampoo intended for the purpose and ensure that the body workis thoroughly wetted to soften the dirt film prior to attempting to remove this. After removing the dirt film with a soft sponge, the body work should be thor-oughly rinsed and then dried with agood quality chamois leather to pre- vent streaking or spotting of the paint work.Household detergents, solvents and abrasive cleaning materials should not be used in order to avoid damaging thepaint film. Plastic wheel covers should be cleaned using a sponge and water. Cast alloywheels should be cleaned using a mild soap or neutral detergent. Abrasive compounds must not be used since inthe event of these damaging the lac- quer coating, oxidization of the alu- minium wheel will occur, spoiling theappearance. The use of an a toothbrush will facili- tate cleaning between the wheel"spokes".
VALETING
SE050A1-E INTERIOR During the winter period, it is possible that the passenger compartment floor-ing may become wet from damp foot- wear or quantities of snow adhering to footwear. The carpet should not beallowed to remain in this condition since the carpet may begin to create musty smells and will promote corrosion ofthe floor pan in addition to the carpet and under felt beginning to rot.

SG030C1-E Engine Oil Level Diesel engine The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operatingtemperature and the vehicle parked upon level ground. Prior to checking the level, the vehicleshould be allowed to stand for several minutes after the engine has been switched off to allow the oil to drainback to the sump. Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag. Replace the dipstick fullyand withdraw again when the oil level may be read from the stick. Normal oil level is indicated when the oil is presentbetween the two marks on the stick. It is not necessary to add oil if the level is above the lower mark and in any case,oil must not be added to the degree that the level exceeds the upper mark. Re- place the dipstick fully after checkingthe level.

NOTE: SAE 5W-20 (5W-30), ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is preferred regardless ofregional option and engine varia- tion. If SAE 5W-20, ILSAC GF-3 en- gine oil is not available, secondaryrecommended engine oil for corre- sponding temperature range can be used.
2. Diesel engine 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 condi- tion and dealing area. (Especially,not recommended for sustained high loaded and high speed operation.)

ENGINE OIL AND FILTER REPLACEMENT
o The engine oil consumption is strongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condi- tion etc. More engine oil may be consumedunder severe driving conditions such as high speeds, frequent accelera- tion and deceleration, compared tonormal driving. G040A04A-EAT
The engine oil and filter must be changedat the time or mileage interval specifiedin the maintenance schedule. If the vehicle is operated under severe or adverse conditions, the oil and filtermust be replaced more frequently. To replace the oil and filter, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the engine is at normaloperating temperature and park the vehicle on level ground with the park- ing brake securely applied and the engine turned off.
2. Open the bonnet and remove the oil filler cap.
