CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL
G030B01HR
G030B02HR-GAT Recommended Oil
(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE
viscosity number according to the atmospheric temperature. Recommended viscosity is given in the following illustration. (2) The engine oil quality should meet
the following API classification:CF-4 or ABOVE
(3) The engine oil quality should meet
the following ACEA classification :B2 or B3
NOTE:
o For diesel-powered vehicle SAE 0W-30 oil should be used only in areas where extremely cold tem-peratures of 10°C (50°F) or below are experienced.
o For diesel-powered vehicle, if the
atmospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or below, SAE 30 oil must not be used. This oil should beused only in areas where the at- mospheric temperatures are 0°C(32°F) or above. G030C01HR
G030A01HR-GAT Engine oil is essential to the perfor- mance and service of the engine. It issuggested that you check the oil level at least once a week or every 500 km in normal use and more often if you are ona trip or driving in severe conditions.

G030D01HR-GAT Adding Oil 2.6 N/A
Before checking the oil, warm up the engine to normal operating tempera-ture and be sure your car is parked on level ground. Turn the engine off. Wait about ten minutes, then remove the dipstick, wipe it off, fully reinsert the dipstick and withdraw it again. Thennote the highest level the oil has reached on the dipstick. It should be between the upper ("F") and lower ("L") range.
G030D01HR
2.5 TCI
HHR5005If the oil level is close to or below the "L"mark, add oil until it reaches the "F"mark. To add oil:
1. Remove the oil filler cap by turning
it counterclockwise.
2. Add oil, then check the level again.
Do not overfill.
3. Replace the cap by turning it clock- wise.
The distance between the "F" and "L" marks is equal to about 1.5 liters of oil. G350A01A-GAT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION Function of Engine Oil Engine oil has the primary function of
lubricating and cooling the inside of theengine. Engine oil consumption It is normal that an engine should consume some engine oil while nor- mal driving. The cause of oil consump- tion in a normal engine are as follows;

The engine oil and filter should be changed at those intervals specified inthe maintenance schedule in Section 5. If the car is being driven in severe conditions, more frequent oil and filterchanges are required. The procedure for changing the oil and filter is as follows:
1. Park the car on level ground and set
the parking brake. Start the engine and let it warm up until the needle on the coolant temperature gauge movesabove the lowest mark. Turn the engine off and place the gear selec- tor lever in reverse gear.
2. Lift up the front passenger's seat (Refer to "To Inspect the EngineCompartment Under the FrontPassenger's Seat" on page 1-13.) and remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Slide underneath the car and loosen the drain plug by turning it counter-clockwise with a wrench of the proper size. Be sure that a drain pan is inposition to catch the oil as it drains out, then remove the drain plug.
CHANGING THE OIL AND FILTER
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 down- wards in the cylinder. High negativepressure generated during engine operation sucks some of the oil into the combustion chamber.This oil with some oil of the cylinder wall is burned by the high tempera-
ture combustion gases during thecombustion process.
o The engine oil consumption is
strongly effected by the viscosityand quality of oil, engine rpm and driving condition etc. The engine oil is more consumed under severedriving conditions such as high speeds and frequent acceleration and deceleration than normal driv-ing condition. G040A03HR-GAT 2.6 N/A

!WARNING:
Be very careful when draining the engine oil as it may be hot enough to burn you!
4. When the oil has stopped draining, replace the drain plug using a new gasket and retighten by turning it clockwise.
Tightening torque : 3.5 ~ 4.5 kgf.m
5. Remove the oil filter by turning it counterclockwise with a oil filter wrench of the proper size. A certainamount of oil will come out when you remove the filter. So be sure to have your drain pan in place underneathit.
6. Install a new oil filter in accordance
with the instructions on the carton oron the filter itself. Do not over-tighten.
Tightening torque: 2.3 ~ 2.5 kgf.m Be sure that the mounting surfaceon the engine is clean and that theold gasket is removed completely. Lubricate the new gasket on the filter with clean engine oil beforeinstallation.

7. Remove the engine oil level dipstick.
8. Refill the crankcase with the recom- mended engine oil slowly. Refer to the specification in chapter 9 for engine oil capacity.
CAUTION:
o Slowly pour the recommended oil by using a funnel. Do not overfill not to damage the engine.
o Do not spill engine oil, when add- ing or changing engine oil. If youdrop the engine oil on the engine room, wipe it off immediately. 9. Start the engine and check to be
sure no oil is leaking from the drainplug or oil filter.
10. Shut off the engine and recheck the
oil level.
NOTE: Always dispose of used engine oil in an environmentally acceptable man- ner. It is suggested that it be placedin a sealed container and taken to a service station for reclamation. Do not pour the oil on the ground or putit into the household trash.
WARNING:
Used motor oil may cause irritationor cancer of the skin if left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods of time. Wash your hands thoroughlywith soap and warm water as soon as possible after handling used oil.
