3. CAUTIONS
Do not park the vehicle on flammable materials, such as grass, leaves and carpet.
Do not touch the catalyst or the exhaust gas ignition system when the engine is running.
If a misfire occurs in the combustion chamber or the emission of pollutant exceeds the specified level,
the catalyst can be damaged.
When servicing or replacing components of the exhaust system, makes sure that the components
are positioned at regular intervals from all other parts of the under body.
Be careful not to damage the exhaust system when lifting the vehicle from its side.
All components and body parts of the engine exhaust system should be inspected for crack, damage,
air hole, part loss and incorrect mounting location. Also check for any deformation which can result in
exhaust gas drawn into the vehicle.
Make sure that the exhaust pipe is cooled down sufficiently before working on it because it is still hot
right after the engine is stopped.
Wear protective gloves when removing the exhaust pipe. -

1. OVERVIEW
This system purifies the exhaust gas generated by the combustion in the engine to reduce the pollutants
and noise during that arise during combustion.
Harmful materials produced in the combustion process is treated and reduced in the exhaust system.
Harmful materials discharged from the crankcase and fuel tank is drawn into the intake system again to
reduce discharge amount of harmful materials.
Emission aftertreatment system ▶
Catalytic Converter & O2 Sensor
The catalytic converter is a monolith type purification system composed of cordierite which purifies
exhaust gas through the small holes of active monolith catalyst from the exhaust manifold. As exhaus
t
gas passes through the small holes in the layer in the middle, its CO and HC are reduced by
oxidization reaction and its NOx is reduced by reduction reaction to Pt, Ph and Pd. The oxygen
sensor sends signals for feedback and determination of catalyst condition. For detailed description,
see the corresponding section. -
The fuel evaporative gas is a gas evaporated to the atmosphere in the section between the fuel tank and
fuel line, and its main component is hydrocarbon (HC). The fuel evaporative gas is temporarily stored in
the canister, and it is drawn to the engine through the throttle body when the purge control solenoid valve
is open according to the engine operating condition.
Gas in the combustion chamber is sealed by the piston. However, gas is leaked through the gap
between the cylinder and piston and drawn into the crankcase during the compression and explosion
strokes. This gas is blow-by gas and its main components are hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide. If this
gas is drawn into the crankcase, the system can be corroded and oil can be deteriorated. Also, if this
gas is discharged into the air, it can pollute the environment. To prevent these, the blow-by gas
reduction system (also called as crankcase ventilation system) draws the blow-by gas from the
crankcase to the combustion chamber for combustion.

1. OVERVIEW
The ignition system is to supply high voltage generated from the ignition coil to the spark plug. The
G20DF engine is equipped with the independent type direct ignition system that the ignition coil is
installed in each cylinder.
The basic ignition timing in each cylinder is determined by the signals from camshaft position sensor and
crankshaft position sensor.
This ignition system controls the electronic ignition timing received from the engine ECU. To control the
ignition timing precisely, the ECU use the information below:
Engine load
Coolant temperature
Intake air temperature
Engine rpm
Camshaft position sensor (CPS)
Crankshaft position sensor (CKS) -

-
If the signal from the camshaft position sensor is not delivered to the engine ECU, the ignition coil and
fuel system cannot be operated.

2. MAINTENANCE
Park the vehicle on a level ground and apply the parking brake. Stop the engine and wait more than 5
minutes.
Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Reinsert it all the way.
Pull out it again and check the oil level.
The oil level should be between the maximum (Max) mark and minimum (Min) mark on the oil
dipstick. Oil should be replenished before the level goes below the minimum mark. -

Replenishment ▶
If the level gets to the lower point, open the filler cap on top of the cylinder block and add the genuine oil
without exceeding the level of the upper mark.
Recheck the oil level after 5 minutes.Operating vehicle with insufficient amount of oil can damage the engine. Make sure the engine oil level
is correct and add oil if necessary.
Regularly check the engine oil level and add Ssangyong genuine engine oil if necessary.
Clean the dipstick with clean cloth so that any foreign materials cannot get into the engine.
The oil should not go above the upper mark on the dipstick.
The engine oil may be consumed more if the engine is new. -

1. OVERVIEW
The lubrication system supplies oil to each lubrication section to prevent friction and wear and to remove
heat from the friction part. As the engine runs, frictional heat is generated on each lubrication section. If
this condition persists, the bearing can be burned and stuck.
In other words, it creates an oil film on each sliding surface to convert solid friction to liquid friction in
order to minimize wear and prevent temperature increasing on the friction part.
