o The engine oil consumption isstrongly effected by the viscosity and quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. More engine oil may be consumed under severe driving conditions such as high speeds, frequent acceleration and deceleration,compared to normal driving.

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 in the course of normal driving. The cause of oil consumption in a normal engine are asfollows;
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 dur-ing engine operation sucks some of 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 during the combustion process.
!WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the radiator hose when adding the en- gine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.

1. Adjust headlights so that main axis of light is parallel to centre line of the body and is aligned with point"P" shown in the illustration.
2. Dotted lines in the illustration show centre of headlights.
1. Keep all tyres inflated to the correct
pressure.
2. Place the vehicle on level ground and press the front bumper & rearbumper 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).
4. Clean the head lights lens and turn
on the headlight.
5. Open the bonnet.
6. Draw the vertical line (through the centre of each headlight beam pat- tern) and the horizontal line (through the centre of each headlight beampattern) on the aiming screen.And then, draw a parallel line at1.18 in. (30 mm) under the hori- zontal line.
7. Adjust each cut-off line of the low beam to the parallel line with aphillips screwdriver - VERTICAL AIMING.
8. Adjust each cut-off line of the low
beam to the each vertical line witha phillips screwdriver - HORIZON- TAL AIMING. L
