Adding Engine Oil
WARNING: Do not add engine oil
when the engine is hot. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury. WARNING: Do not remove the filler
cap when the engine is running.
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
1. Clean the area surrounding the engine oil filler cap before you remove it.
2. Remove the engine oil filler cap.
3. Add engine oil that meets our specifications. See
Capacities and
Specifications (page 362).
4. Replace the engine oil filler cap. Turn it clockwise until you feel a strong
resistance.
Note: Do not add oil further than the
maximum mark. Oil levels above the
maximum mark may cause engine damage.
Note: Immediately soak up any oil spillage
with an absorbent cloth.
Engine Oil Pressure Warning Lamp WARNING:
If it illuminates when
you are driving do not continue your
journey, even if the oil level is correct.
Have your vehicle checked. It illuminates when you switch
the ignition on. If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates a malfunction. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so and
switch the engine off. Check the engine oil
level. If the oil level is sufficient, this
indicates a system malfunction. Have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL
AND OIL FILTER
WARNING:
Prolonged and
repeated skin contact with mineral oil
will result in the removal of natural fats
from the skin, leading to dryness,
irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used
engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants, which may cause skin
cancer. If skin contact occurs, wash the
area thoroughly with soap or skin
cleanser and water immediately. WARNING:
Do not dispose of
engine oils or oil filters in the household
refuse or the public sewage system. Use
an authorized waste disposal facility. WARNING:
Do not remove the oil
pan drain plug when the engine is
running. WARNING:
Do not remove the oil
filter when the engine is running.
1. Remove the oil pan drain plug and wait
for the oil to drain into a suitable
container.

that the tabs on the edge are correctly
aligned into the slots.
7. Slip the air tube onto the air filter cover
and snugly tighten the bolt on the air
tube clamp, but do not overtighten.

DRAINING THE FUEL FILTER
WATER TRAP - DIESEL WARNING: Do not dispose of fuel
in the household refuse or the public
sewage system. Use an authorized waste
disposal facility. You should drain water from the
fuel filter water trap whenever
the warning light illuminates or
a message appears in the information
display.
This occurs when approximately
7 fl oz
(200 ml) of water accumulates in the fuel
filter water trap. If you ignore the warning
lamp, water may pass through to the
system and may cause damage not
covered by the vehicle Warranty. Draining the Fuel Filter Water Trap
1. Attach a tube to the drain plug and
place the end of the tube into a
suitable container.
2. Turn the drain plug counterclockwise until it stops. Do not use any tools to
loosen the drain plug. Drain the fuel
filter water trap into an appropriate
container. Do not re-use the fuel
drained from the fuel filter water trap.
3. Tighten the drain plug, turn it clockwise
until it stops and you feel a strong
resistance. Do not use any tools to
tighten the drain plug.
4. Switch the ignition of for 30 seconds and then switch the ignition off. Repeat
this operation six times in a row to
purge any trapped air from the fuel
system.

AUXILIARY SWITCHES
The auxiliary switchboard on the center
console makes aftermarket customization
easier, with four prewired switches
attached to the power distribution box for
electrical accessories. When using the auxiliary switches for an
extended period of time, we recommend
that the engine is running to prevent the
battery from running out of charge.
A fuse and relay kit is included with this
option. The kit contains fuses and relays
for the pre-fusebox, located under the
driver
’s seat. Refer to the instructions
included with the kit. See an authorized
dealer for service.
There is one power lead connector for each
switch. These can be found at either the
43-way connector for the AUX 1 and AUX
2 switches or the 6-way connector for the
AUX 3 and AUX 4 switches. Both
connectors are behind the passenger side
cup holder.
The relays are coded as follows: Fuse Rating
