2012 SSANGYONG NEW REXTON check oil

2. CAUTIONS
Standard pattern of soot accumulation
(1) Abnormal Soot Accumulation (2) Normal Soot Combustion
Cautions to protect the catalyst filter
Use the designated fuel only.
Observe the recommended service intervals of engine oil.
Check the engine oil level frequently and add if necessary.
Do not idle the vehicle unnecessarily.
Do not turn off the engine while the vehicle is running.
Do not shift the gear selector lever to neutral when going downhill.
Do not use improper engine oil or fuel additives.
Do not drive for a long time when the warning lamp is illuminated.
Make sure no flammable material, such as dry grass or tissue paper, contacts with the catalyst filter
while the vehicle is parked.
For the vehicles used in urban traffic, driving on the expressways for more than 1 hour at least once
per week is needed so that the PM inside CDPF isn't collected to one side only. -

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.

3) Guidelines on Engine Service
To prevent personal injuries and vehicle damages that can be caused by mistakes during engine
and unit inspection/repair and to secure optimum engine performance and safety after service
works, basic cautions and service work guidelines that can be easily forgotten during engine
service works are described in.
Cautions before service works
For safe and correct works, you must observe the working procedures and instructions in this
manual. And, use the designated tools as follow:
Engine stand / Heavy duty engine jack
To prevent the engine from starting abruptly, do not allow anybody to get in the vehicle while
servicing in engine compartment.
Before work on engine and electrical equipment, be sure to disconnect battery negative (-)
terminal.
Before service works, be sure to prepare the works by cleaning and aligning work areas.
Do not allow the foreign material get into the fuel injection system.
When removing the engine, use only the safety hook on engine and engine hanger. Do not
support the bottom of oil pan with a jack. -
-
-
-
-
Completely drain the engine oil, coolant and fuel from engine before removal.
Before disassembling/assembling the engine components, carefully read the working
procedures in this manual.
Make sure to keep the specified tightening torques during installation.
Clean and properly lubricate the parts before reassembly.
Carefully check that there is not any interference while servicing. -

-
-
-

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. -
