On vehicles with A/T, make sure
the selector
lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.
Vehicles with M/T Vehicles with A/T6. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position.
The diesel preheat

indication lamp will first
illuminate, and then after a short time go out,
indicating that preheating is completed.
NOTE l If the engine is cold, the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp is on for a longer time.
l When the engine has not been started within
about 5 seconds after the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp went out, return the ignition key
to the “LOCK” position. Then, turn the key
to the “ON” position to preheat the engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the diesel preheat
indication lamp does not come on even if the
ignition key is placed in the “ON” position.
Start the engine by turning the ignition key
right to the “START” position. 7. Turn the ignition key to the “START” posi-
tion without depressing the accelerator pedal,
and release it when the engine starts.
Fuel injection amount learning proc-
ess (diesel-powered vehicles) E00616000044
To keep

exhaust emissions and engine noise low,
the engine very

occasionally performs a learning
process for the fuel injection amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from usual
while the learning process is taking place. The
change in the engine sound does not indicate a fault. Diesel particulate filter (DPF)*
E00619800027
The diesel particulate

filter (DPF) is a device that
captures most of the particulate matter (PM) in the
exhaust emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF au-
tomatically burns away trapped PM during vehicle
operation. Under certain driving conditions, howev-
er, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trap-
ped PM and, as a result, an excessive amount of
PM accumulates inside it. WARNING
l The DPF reaches very high temperatures.
Do not
park

your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust system since a fire could occur. CAUTION
l
Do not use
any type of fuel or engine oil
that is not specified for your vehicle. Al-
so, do not use any moisture-removing
agent or other fuel additive. Such substan-
ces could have a detrimental effect on the
DPF.
Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 02 and
“Engine oil” on page 8-04.
NOTE l To
minimize the

likelihood of excessive ac-
cumulation of PM, try to avoid driving for
long periods at low speeds and repeatedly
driving short distances. Starting and driving
4-15 4

OBKE12E1

Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or
API classification as specified in this manual.
NOTE
l For
3200 models,
check or refill the oil ac-
cording to the following manner. • When the oil level is checked in step 6above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dipstick.
• On vehicles without diesel particulate fil- ter (DPF), the oil level should be within
the range (A) to (B) on the dipstick.
• On vehicles with DPF, the oil level should be within the range (A) to (C) (oil
replacement indication mark) on the dip-
stick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace-
ment indication mark (C), replace the oil
as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the max-
imum level (B).
• On vehicles with DPF, the engine oil will increase due to a little fuel getting mixed
in the engine oil when the DPF regener-
ates to burn away the PM (particulate mat-
ter). However, it does not indicate a mal-
function.
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re-
quiring earlier oil replacement. Please refer
to the maintenance schedule.
l For handling of used engine oils, refer to
page 06. Selection of engine oil
Petrol-powered vehicles
l
Select engine
oil
of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
SAE 0W-30, 5W-30, and 5W-40 engine oils
can only be used if they meet ACEA A3/B3,
A3/B4 or A5/B5 and API SM (or higher) spec-
ifications.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• API classification: “For service SM” orhigher
• ILSAC certificated oil
• ACEA classification: “For service A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4 or
A5/B5” NOTE
l Use
of additives

is not recommended since
they may reduce the effectiveness of addi-
tives already included in the engine oil. It
may result in failure of the mechanical assem-
bly.
Diesel-powered vehicles
Vehicles without diesel particulate filter (DPF) l
Select engine

l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• ACEA classification:“For service A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4,
A5/B5, C1, C2, C3 or C4”
• API classification: “For service CD” or higher
• JASO classification: “For service DL-1”

E01000501273
To check the coolant level
A translucent
coolant
reserve tank is located in the
engine compartment.
The coolant level in this tank should be kept be-
tween the “LOW” and “FULL” marks when meas-
ured while the engine is cold. To add coolant
The cooling
system

is a closed system and normal-
ly the loss of coolant should be very slight. A no-
ticeable drop in the coolant level could indicate leak-
age. If this occurs, we recommend you to have the
system checked as soon as possible.
If the level should drop below the “LOW” level on
the reserve tank, open the lid and add coolant.
Also, if the reserve tank is completely empty, re-
move the radiator cap and add coolant until the lev-
el reaches the filler neck. Maintenance
