2012 SSANGYONG NEW REXTON fluid

2. FUNCTIONS OF LUBRICATION
1) Lubrication
It creates a viscous barrier between moving parts that reduces friction, which means less heat and
longer life for those parts. As a lubricant, oil must maintain a protective film to prevent metal-to-metal
contact. It must be fluid enough to allow easy starting and to circulate quickly through the engine, yet
remain thick enough at higher operating temperatures and speeds to provide adequate lubrication.
2) Cooling
Combustion heat and friction energy must be removed from the engine in order to prevent its
overheating. Most of heat energy is taken by the engine oil.
Clean oil passages, proper viscosity and low contamination provide sufficient flow rate of the engine oil
and effective cooling.
3) Sealing
It helps to seal the space between the pistons and the cylinder walls so that compression is more
effective and power is not lost during combustion.
4) Anti-corrosion
As a corrosion inhibitor, oil coats internal engine parts to prevent surface rust on the inside of the engine
which can be caused by blow-by products and water formed in combustion. It must also be capable of
neutralizing the acids that are formed by combustion blow-by and oil oxidation at high temperatures.
5) Cleaning
The small particles of dirt or other contaminants are suspended in oil and carried away to be filtered out.
As a detergent, engine oil must be able to gather and suspend dirt and other contaminants until the oil
can leave them as it passes through the filter and returns to the internal engine environment.

If the charge warning lamp ( ) on the instrument cluster comes on while driving, there is a
malfunction in the charge system including the battery. Therefore, carrying out the system check is
needed.
(4) Maintenance
Make sure that the battery cables are firmly connected.
If the terminals are corroded, clean them with a wire brush or sandpapers.
Always disconnect the battery cables with the ignition key removed. When disconnecting the battery
cables with the ignition key turned to ON or ACC position, several electric units can be damaged
due to sudden voltage change.
Check the battery for crack, damage or fluid leaks. Replace it if necessary.
Wipe out the battery fluid on the battery surface using a rubber glove and a clean cloth wetted with
soapy water. -

2) Cautions on Service Procedures
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
When using a jack, park the vehicle on a level ground and place the wheel chocks under the
tires. Position the jack under the frame and lift up the vehicle and then support with chassis
stand before service work.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to
electric systems.
If you have to work on vehicle, cover the seats and floor with protection covers to avoid any
damage and contamination.
Brake fluid and anti-freeze can damage the painted surface of body. So carefully handle them
during service work.
To improve the efficiency of service work, use only recommended and specified tools.
Use only Ssangyong genuine spare parts.
Never reuse the cotter pin, gasket, O-ring, oil seal, lock washer and self-locking nut. Replace
them with new ones. If reused, normal functions cannot be maintained.
Store the disassembled parts as a set based on disassembly order and unit.
Pay particular attention not to miss or mix the fasteners.
If necessary, especially for inspection, clean the removed parts completely.
Apply the oil or grease on the running and sliding surfaces before installation. Use the specified
sealant and gasket to prevent leakage if necessary.
Tighten the fasteners with the specified tightening torque.
As a final stage of service work, check if the serviced system is working properly and the
problem has been eliminated clearly. 1.

Do not allow the fluid and engine oil to make contact with the body paintwork and hoses.
If work on the fluid system such as fuel and oil, working area should be well ventilated and
smoking should be prohibited.
Gasket or seal on the fuel/lubrication system should be replaced with new ones and bolts and
nuts should be tightened as specified.
After removal/installation works, be sure to check whether there is leak on the connecting
section. -

If fine dust or foreign material enters into DI engine's fuel system, there can be serious
damages between HP pump and injectors. So, be sure to cover removed fuel system
components with cap and protect removed parts not to be contaminated with dirt. (Refer to
cleanness in this manual while working on DI engine fuel system)
When working on the fuel line between priming pump and injector (including return line),
always plug the openings with caps to prevent foreign materials or dust from entering to the
openings and connections.
The HP fuel supply pipe (HP pump to fuel rail) and HP fuel pipe (Fuel rail to injector) should
be replaced with new ones when removed. 1.

Electric devices should be handled more carefully.
Currently, the engine has a lot of electric devices. There could be poor engine performance,
incomplete combustion and other abnormal symptoms due to short circuit or poor contact.
Before work on engine and electrical equipment, be sure to disconnect battery negative (-)
terminal.
When replacing the electric device, use only genuine part and check the conditions of
connections and grounds. Loosened connection or ground makes cause a fire and personal
injury. -
