Engine Oil Level
The engine oil level should be checked with the engine at normal operating temperature and the vehicle parkedupon level ground. Prior to checking the level, the vehicle
should be allowed to stand for severalminutes after the engine has been switched off to allow the oil to drain back to the sump.
Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it with
a clean rag. Replace the dipstick fullyand withdraw again when the oil levelmay be read from the dipstick. Normal oil level is indicated when the oil is present between the two marks on thedipstick. It is not necessary to add oil if the level is above the lower mark and in any case, oil must not be added tothe degree that the level exceeds the upper mark. Replace the dipstick fully after checking the level.

!WARNING:
Be very careful not to touch the
radiator hose when checking the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you.
2. Diesel Engine
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature.Recommended viscosity is givenin the following illustration.
NOTE: SAE 0W-30 oil should be used only in areas where extremely cold tem- peratures of 50°F(10°C) or below are experienced.
(2) The engine oil quality should meet the following classification:
API: CF-4 or ABOVEACEA: B4 or ABOVE

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of engine oil
Engine oil has the primary function of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine.
HPG030C2-E
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. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil in the course of normal driving.The causes of oil consumption in anormal 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 generatedduring 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 consumedunder severe driving conditionssuch 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 the
radiator hose when adding the en-gine oil as it may be hot enough toburn you.
